I would absolutely recommend Ed Kopko for legal advice. He was very efficient and knowledgeable in every way. He was always quick to get back to me on any issue. I would highly recommend him.

Do not hire him!!!

This lawyer must be the reason that lawyers get a bad name. As he took my retainer, he assured me he was going to remedy my legal situation. I now equate this to "stealing" my retainer because he had ME do critical legwork for the case, missed deadlines, did not keep numerous appointments ( I drove... over an hour to get to his office) avoided my phone calls, then after several months he sent a bill and said let's call it even and go our separate ways. He did no work after he took my retainer. Meanwhile, he missed the deadline for me to file. Stay away from this one, unless you want to get screwed.

Ignore Negative Reviews!

Mr. Kopko has a highly comptent staff and pays close attention to detail. He has been my go-to lawyer for many years and my experience with him has been nothing but opposite of the negative comments on this page. Sometimes the honesty of the words "there is just nothing to your case" comes as offen...sive to some. On the contrary I tend to value honesty, all of which comes from his many years of experience. I highly recommend Mr. Kopko for any legal issues!

Great Lawyer

Mr. Kopko was my lawyer for a medical malpractice case. He is a very competent lawyer and always had my best interest in mind. I received a very good settlement due to Mr. Kopko's hard work. I would recommend him to anyone in need of any type of legal help.

Superior Represention

I consulted with attorney Edward Kopko on an unusal,complicated,and frightening situation which warranted immediate action. I am extremely happy and thankful I did! Mr Kopko and his 2 law clerks,Jason Violette and Trystan Ahart, took the time to understand my complicated predicament. I felt understo...od. I became encouraged by Mr Kopko’s and his staff’s empathy and support initially and throughout the 4 1/2 years as their client. In addition, their humor at appropriate times, helped lighten the load my situation caused me. They worked on my behalf for a long time until I was able to pay. Mr. Kopko’s keen knowledge of and experience with the law along with his kindness,gave me the security I needed during a difficult time. Throughout the progression of the case,I was kept informed. New developments, various options for action, and the outcomes of action were carefully explained to me evey time. I became empowered as I chose which way to proceed after receiveing excellent advice. I am happy with the outcome of the case. May you be fortunate enough to consult with Attorney Edward Kopko and experience superior service as well.
