About Cobb

Cobb Young earned a Bachelor of Arts from Drury University, completing his degree in 1975 after studying business administration, economics and political science. Those early studies fed an interest in law and public affairs that guided his next steps. He moved into the legal field soon after finishing college.

He became a member of the Missouri State Bar in 1978 and has maintained that membership through the present. Licensed in Missouri, he has built a career handling matters that arise under state law. Membership in the Missouri bar has provided the professional footing for a practice that has continued for decades.

Young is the owner of The Law Offices of Cobb Young, LLC. He operates his practice from that firm and manages the business side as well as client work. Over the years he has handled a range of legal tasks, representing clients in courts and advising them on procedural and substantive issues. His work is grounded in the everyday practice of law as it plays out in Missouri’s courts.

His association memberships underscore the kinds of work he undertakes. He belongs to the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and the Missouri Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He also holds membership in the Jasper County Bar Association. Those affiliations align with the courtroom work he performs and offer professional contacts and continuing education opportunities.

Colleagues and clients see in his long career a steady presence in local legal circles. He has represented individuals on criminal matters and navigated the local court systems that handle those cases. The combination of local bar participation and national criminal defense ties has shaped the way he practices law.

Across a career that began in the late 1970s, Young has kept to a hands-on approach. He runs his firm, maintains active bar membership and remains engaged in the matters that come before Missouri courts. He currently practices criminal defense in Missouri and continues to accept matters through The Law Offices of Cobb Young, LLC.
