“Richard has been my personal lawyer and has acted and advised on numerous matters for me and members of my family for nearly 30 years.   His personal attention and accessibility enable him to focus on the details of the issues at hand better than your typical lawyer.   He provides cost effective solutions to complex problems and is highly competent in the execution of procedural matters.  He is also a seasoned negotiator who is able to reach agreements with opposing counsel amicably without unnecessary escalation.  Richard always acts with honesty and integrity and I have no hesitation in highly recommending him.”

“Richard Cooper is an extremely savvy, wonderful, versatile lawyer. I am so impressed with his skills at negotiating. But he also knows when to let go and move on from a case with the least amount of stress possible for his clients. My family and I have hired him for personal will and estate matters, real estate transactions, big business, and corporate issues. His knowledge of all kinds of legal problems and how to solve and negotiate them thoroughly is beyond compare. He is always available for his clients. I have contacted him, on his encouragement, in the middle of the night when an emergency situation has come up. Richard is committed, passionate and always up on the latest changes in the law. He explains it to someone like myself or my elderly mother in a calm, professional, easy, and understanding manner. His astounding knowledge of all facets of the law is very impressive. He is truly a hands on, caring and trustworthy lawyer.  Richard is always fair with his billing when a case goes on for a long period of time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Richard Cooper for all your legal matters.“

“When my parents found themselves in a legal situation with a woman they later on found out sustained herself by suing other parties; they thought her claim was so ridiculous that there is no need to lawyer up with some sort of top shelf lawyer. Many drawn out years later and lots of legal bills with some local lawyer that was recommended to them; they got a very shocking and devastating ruling against them.

At this point, through a friend’s referral, I found Richard Cooper. Right away after we all met we could tell Richard was the lawyer my parents needed. He suited us perfectly with his down to earth personality and straight forward manner. Right away we recognized in him an intelligent and honest individual that really was looking after our interests. He is experienced and very professional in how he operates. My parents finally felt they were in good hands and would be looked after; which is what Richard did. He acted quickly and was very thorough in reaching a final outcome that meant my parents could finally start to heal from this whole experience and start putting it behind them.

For anyone reading this right now and thinking they should just stay with a local lawyer or someone that was presented to them as available to use; do your due diligence and take the little bit of extra time to meet Richard. If I ever needed the services of a lawyer; I assure you Richard would be the first call I would make. My parents have had lots of time to torment themselves over their initial decision and we know that their troubles would have gone very differently had they made the effort and decision to find someone like Richard initially. Don’t put yourself in that position of regret. Look for someone to represent you that you feel 100% with. I have a strong feeling Richard could be that Lawyer for you; he was for us.”
