Mr. Garvin served as a peace officer in central Texas,wearing a uniform, patrolling his district, and enforcing the law forover two and a half years.  During this time, Dax learned how manyofficers think and why they respond to situations the way that theydo.  This knowledge and experience sets Dax apart from many otherlawyers, that have never worked in law enforcement.  Mr. Garvin alsoworked for clients whose insurance companies were involved and defendedthem in matters ranging from minor automobile collisions to cases thatinvolved the death of another person, so he knows and appreciates theprocedures and complexities of civil litigation.  Mr. Garvin began hislegal career in 2002 with the Travis County Attorney's Office, where heserved as a misdemeanor prosecutor, interacting with law enforcementofficers, crime victims, defense attorneys, and countless other partiesthat had an interest in the outcome of the case he was working on atthat time.  It was in this role that Dax learned to recognize the veryessence of a State's case, understanding not only the elements that theState must prove to convict but the other forces that explain why acase is filed, prosecuted, and tried.

David L. Cook has an AV Preeminent Peer Review Rating from Martindale-Hubbell. Learn more.  To review David's Curriculum Vitae please click here. David's practice areas include Family Law, Business Litigation/Formation and Public Sector Law.“The depth and diversity of our services set our firm apart from others. It’s rare that clients can go to the same source for a divorce, business lawsuit or formation issues, estate planning or criminal defense and be assured of effective representation in each matter. Our lawyers are equally skilled in transactional matters and courtroom litigation, and extremely knowledgeable in a number of Civil, Corporate and Criminal legal matters.” A seasoned Litigator and dedicated Public Servant, David L. Cook’s professional and community service roots date back to his teenage years. “I developed a strong interest in law while still in high school, and I was also interested in public service,” David recalled. “I learned that a large number of State Legislators were also attorneys. As I began college, I firmly believed having knowledge of one (law) would help me with the other (Public Service). " “One of my mentors, R. L. Anderson, who was also my High School counselor, helped me get a part-time job in Harold English’s office my Senior year,” he continued, referring to a long-time Tarrant County lawyer. “This experience worked out great and solidified my interest in practicing law. Mostly because I saw that Mr. English was really making a difference in other people’s lives.” Today, David is actively engaged in the pursuit of both of his passions: He’s the leader of Harris Cook’s daily operations, a prominent Family and Business Law attorney---and he's also the Mayor of Mansfield, a post he’s held since 2008. “I enjoy the challenges of both jobs and how they often complement one another,” said Cook. “I also like the fact that I’m following the example and tradition established by our Firm’s Founder, Senator Chris Harris.” David was admitted to the Texas Bar in 1997, following his graduation from Texas Wesleyan University School of Law, which is now known as Texas A&M University School of Law. He completed his undergraduate work at Stephen F. Austin State University, where he received a degree in Public Administration. He’s since become one of the most sought-after Family Law attorneys in Tarrant County, a specialty in which he’s Board Certified. Within that discipline, he specializes in cases that involve Complex Division of Assets or Contested Child Custody matters, and often finds himself representing business owners.   “What I find rewarding is that even though I’m usually working with someone at their lowest point in the beginning, I can almost always guide them through the process in such a way that they end up in a much better place than where I found them,” he said. “I feel like it’s a Practice Area where I can make a positive impact and a lasting impression.”

Practice Areas: Family

Except for the time it took to earn both undergraduate and law degrees from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas, I have lived in Austin, Texas since the fourth grade.  I’m proud to come from a long line of lawyers and public servants.  I have spent over 20 years practicing Family Law, including  divorce, complex property division, child custody, child support, collaborative law, adoptions, pre and post-nuptial agreements, family violence (Protective Orders), and virtually every aspect of the law affecting families. Since 2006, I have been Board Certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.. When you need the services of a Family Law professional, there’s not a more important decision than who you choose as your representative.  I believe that the lawyer should take the tone from the client and take care to understand what the client seeks to accomplish.  The lawyer’s job is to help the client navigate the legal landscape and offer the client expert legal advice from which the client can choose to accomplish his or her goals, which is part of our core objectives at Kazen Family Law & Divorce Lawyers.  Getting this right requires providing the client as much explanation as is necessary to make the client feel comfortable and informed. That, and achieving the best results, is what separates good lawyers from great lawyers.
