M. Craig Robertson is a Board-Certified Family Law Specialist known for strategic clarity, disciplined ex*****on, and fearless advocacy. Bold, decisive, and comfortable stepping directly into difficult conversations, Craig has built a reputation as one of Mississippi’s leading family law attorneys. High-net-worth individuals, business owners, executives, and public figures trust him with their most private and high-stakes matters because of his ability to bring structure, control, and precision to emotionally charged situations.
A former Division I varsity baseball player, Craig learned early that preparation creates confidence. He earned his Bachelor of Business Administration in Economics from Mississippi State University and his Juris Doctor from the University of Mississippi in 1999. Early in his career, he clerked for Judge Swan Yerger, where he observed firsthand the courtroom work surrounding the prosecution of Medgar Evers’ murderer following the national attention created by *Ghosts of Mississippi*. He later trained under renowned family law attorney L.C. James, whose representation of Pat Fordice in her divorce from Governor Kirk Fordice shaped Craig’s understanding of high-profile litigation, media sensitivity, and disciplined courtroom advocacy.
Craig has been recognized in *Best Lawyers in America* since 2012 and *Mid-South Super Lawyers* since 2018. In 2025, he was named one of Mississippi’s Top 50 Attorneys. Beyond private practice, he has served on the Mississippi Commission on Children’s Justice and contributed to organizations focused on family stability and mental health. In 2011, he and his wife founded 200 Million Flowers, a nonprofit adoption agency that partnered with CPS to improve foster family training and placement throughout Mississippi.
Craig’s approach to law is grounded in resilience, discipline, and faith. He believes clarity drives confidence and that strong leadership matters most during times of crisis. Clients come to him facing uncertainty, conflict, and life-changing decisions. He responds with steady judgment, strategic thinking, and relentless advocacy focused on protecting what matters most.
