Ryan E Cooke

A con artists with a law degree , that's how I feel after meeting Ryan E. Cooke. I met with this man on 3/23/21 for a consultation after having talked to him for 45 minutes over the phone on 3/22/21. Ryan said he would charge me 1500 flat rate for all proceeding in family court until case resolve...s' and 1000 for trial, if it had to go to trial. I told him I was out of work and he said he would help me out. the contract that he gave me to review was in fact anything but helpful and in it stated the complete opposite of what we agreed to verbally. His contract is a two page robbery and leads people to a road of bankruptcy quickly , asking his clients to pay 1500 monthly with an additionally 10 percent interest charged on the 15th day of each month if you are late -is he a bank? and he charges these fees until case concludes. If you are going to charge people fees you should do it honestly and up front and charge those who have the money to give. I'm so happy I dogged this bullet and did not get into contact with this crooked attorney because Ryan E Cooke is a Crookie ,and you've been warned!

Ryan is not that great as a family lawyer. His lack experience shows. He is great about taking your calls, Just do not expect any time action to be taken. In family court enviroment he will show up and go through the motions. Just do ask him to file one to further your case. He instruct his clients... to do his duties for him. These others reviews are wildly miss leading.

Ryan is very accessible. He will take the time during consultation. He will return your calls. In my case, he claimed he could get results that he did not deliver. I meet with Ryan. I brought relevant documents and informed him honestly of the details of my Family Court case. I was told he woul...d take clearly defined actions to support my case. In short, it did not happen. If fact, I arrived at court to have the Judge reject my request for Temporary Relief do to my petition for of lacking supporting documents. I proceed only to find that when I need to file further petition, I was told to take care of my self. I was also informed any evidence need to support my case, I would have to get any evidence my self. Ryan was in over his head here. I am not suggesting he unethical. He lacks experience. And he sets his price only to realize that the case require too much effort. In this instance Ryan was clearly informed that it would be complex , difficult and go to trail. He wanted to show up and hope the respondent did something foolish on Facebook. Or maybe exchange proposal letters with the respondent's lawyer. You get what you pay for. Do not waste your money here. It will end cost you much more.

From the start Ryan was compassionate and committed, making it clear that he would do his absolute best to help us win and that's exactly what he did. Ryan went above and beyond and got us exactly what we were asking for - paternal custody- during an extremely ugly custody battle. I ended up walk...ing away with full custody of my daughter thanks to Ryan's knowledgeable decisions, actions, and angles. He really tackled our case as an expert and presented it to the judge in just the right way. His staff was amazing, especially the woman at the front desk, she was so sweet every time we were there. We would definitely recommend Ryan to anyone in need of legal services in a child custody case. Thank you so much Ryan.

Mr Cooke was very straight forward with me and very honest with me. He helped me understand the rules of our justice system, he was very informative, he contacted me when he said he would. He answered my questions whether they were the answers I wanted to hear or not. He was very knowledgeable abou...t the family court laws. I would highly recommend Mr. Cooke to anyone.
