Board Certified in family law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization2020 has brought a whirlwind of change. The unpredictability of COVID-19 has impacted us in various ways. Most of us have had to re-examine the way we conduct our day-to-day lives and businesses and how we communicate and connect with family, friends, and clients. There is hope that some good will come out of all this, and it has become even more important to to be kind to one another, slow down and celebrate the little things in life. Webb Family Law Firm, P.C. has recently hired on two new incredible attorneys, Greg Beane and Kelvin Malone, who joined the firm just in time to work remotely.
Shortly before this pandemic took center stage of our lives, the Webb family endured the tragic loss of an amazing man. As many of you are aware, Brian L. Webb, founder, father, and friend to many lost his battle with cancer in November 2019. The Webb Family Law Firm is now being led by his daughter, Natalie Webb, who is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. His son, Brant Webb, is also a partner and practices law at their family’s law firm located in downtown Dallas.
Brian Webb’s knowledge and 40+ years of experience led the firm with distinction. He was awarded numerous honors, including the prestigious Sam Emison Award, and was a charter member of the American College of Family Trial Lawyers, which is limited to 100 members nationwide. In 2015, Brian was inducted into the Hall of Legends of the Family Law Section, State Bar of Texas. The Webb Family Law Firm will proudly honor his numerous accomplishments and continue his legacy.
Moving forward in this season of changes, Natalie and Brant Webb welcome two accomplished and reputable attorneys to the firm. Please help us welcome our new partner, Greg Beane, and the experienced attorney, Kelvin
Malone, to the team.

He also specializes in other complex family law matters, such as multi-jurisdictional issues, high-conflict custody disputes, and enforcements.Originally from Pittsburg, Texas, Greg graduated from SMU Dedman School of Law in 2006. While in law school, he was named to the Order of the Barristers, which is only awarded to a maximum of 10 students per year for their advocacy skills.
Greg was recently appointed to the State Bar of Texas Family Law Council Legislative Committee, where he helps form family law policy for the state of Texas. He is also on the board of the Texas Family Law Foundation, an organization dedicated to improving the family law practice and jurisprudence in Texas. In addition to being a published author, Greg regularly gives presentations to other attorneys on how to better relate to their clients and win cases. He has spoken at numerous continuing legal education courses. This includes the annual Advanced Family Law Course, which is one of the biggest family law conferences in the nation. When Greg isn’t practicing law or speaking at an event, he enjoys playing golf, spending quality time with his beautiful wife, and playing dolls with their adorable five year-old daughter. He is actively involved in Brookhaven Country Club, where he serves on the Board of Governors. He also teaches children’s Sunday School and serves on the Children’s Committee at Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church.

Founder, Brian L. WebbPracticed for 40+ years(1949 – 2019)
Brian L. Webb is dearly missed. We continue to reflect on all the good times we shared together, and how his smile could light up an entire room (or stadium). Brian’s jokes were unfiltered, his laughter was contagious and his generosity unmatched.
Brian continues to be a legend, by receiving numerous awards in the wake of his passing. The same qualities that made him such an incredible attorney also carried over into his personal life. He touched so many lives in unique ways.Many of us knew the lawyer who was a worthy adversary in court. Others knew his more generous side and how he always lent a helping hand to anyone in need.Brian was a brilliant attorney and also enjoyed shaping young legal minds as an adjunct professor at SMU Dedman School of Law. One of his students wrote, “Professor Webb was truly passionate about teaching us. He was even more passionate about his love for being an attorney, which was extremely refreshing. This love was directly proportional to our desire to learn and we are very grateful for professors like him!”
Among many other awards, he has also been chosen to be in Texas Super Lawyers every year since its inception, including selections as one of the Top 100 Super Lawyers in Texas and as one of the Top 100 Super Lawyers in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. D Magazine named him as one of the best family lawyers in Dallas and he has been listed in the prestigious “Best Lawyers in America” every year since 1989. He presided over Texas’ four largest statewide family law organizations: (the Family Law Section of the State Bar of Texas, the Texas Academy of Family Law Specialists, the Texas Chapter of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, and the Texas Family Law Foundation) and served on boards of national and international family law organizations. Mr. Webb was a leader in the community and family law for decades.
Brian Webb was a friend, a proud loving father and grandfather, and an amazing and fun boss to those who quickly became family. He is irreplaceable and his accomplishments unmatched. We want to honor what he began long ago and continue his legacy.

“All these changes at out firm are bitter sweet, because the change is due to the passing of one of the greatest family law attorneys and bosses.” -Senior Paralegal, Kay Redburn

Sr. Paralegal, Kay RedburnEmployee Highlight
Throughout everything these past few months, Kay Redburn has been an essential asset to our team and has remained steadfast to our family and firm. Kay has been the Senior Paralegal for Brian Webb since 1992. She is a Board Certified Family Law Paralegal by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
Kay was a Psychology major at the University of Texas at Austin. She is a current and Founding Member of the Exam Commission for Family Law for the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. Among many other awards and certifications, she has also been a Paralegal Liaison/Parliamentarian for the Texas Academy of Family Law Specialists since 2004 and is on the Membership Committee of the Family Law Section for the State Bar of Texas. 
Kay graduated in the twenty-first class from the Mesquite Citizen Police Academy and was also named their Volunteer of the Year in 2008. She has a variety of talents, one of which is tap-dancing! When Kay is out of the office, she enjoys spending quality time with her kids and grandkids. She is also a fan of all the hustle and bustle of living downtown and loves being able to walk to work and other places. Pre-COVID-19, she often attended art shows and concerts, and is now enjoying reading and watching movies guilt free. Kay says her favorite concert is hands down watching the Eagles live, every time they play in town. 
Her favorite part of her job is being able to help people get through a difficult time in their lives and especially being able to help their children. Kay would like to remind anyone going through a divorce or modification to base their decision on the best interest of their children. Kids are often the recipient of any anger and negativity between disputing parents and sometimes personally suffer as a result.  It is reassuring to have such caring paralegals and support staff to assist our attorneys in these difficult cases. Kay continues to be a valuable asset to our family and firm. And for this, she is our highlighted employee this month, among many other reasons.
