Pleasure to Work With

I first hired Foster many years ago when I bought my first house. He did a great job, explaining the process to me at the start, and keeping me advised of a couple of problems that occured because of earlier transactions. He has handled a number of other matters for me since then and he made them a...s easy as possible for me. He is keenly aware of costs and has saved me money by explaining why certain actions were optional. Anyone who wants a lawyer who will do his best for you and keep your costs reasonable in relation to the matter involved should hire Foster Cooperstein.

Hire Him to Ruin Your Life

He consistently missed deadlines, provided sloppy work, and asked us to sign documents he knew weren't right. He stalled our home sale and frustrated everyone involved with his amateurish performance to the point the buyer's attorney suggested we fire him. When we replaced him, he submitted an inflat...ed bill and put a lien on our house to block the sale. He then steadily raised his ransom as we tried to pay him off just to make the sale go through. I have evidence of all of this, and am happy to share it. He is bad at his job and a horrible person. Chose literally anyone else you can find.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
