Helped with a breach of contract case
Peter is a great lawyer who I will recommend to my friends and family. He helped with a case where my employer was not paying me quarterly bonuses as described in my contract. Peter is professional and was available when I needed him. He helped me resolve my issue very quickly.

I worked many hours at my previous job without getting paid Over time. Mr. Cooper managed to settle my case fast and for a fair amount. He got me the money I was entitled to for the years i worked in that company.
