      Quick Response and Knowledgable

      Posted by

      Zach helped me get through a 1st offense DUI. I reached out to Zach the day after my DUI and he responded within minutes. He was always available by text or call. He responded all days of the week and was quick to do what he said he would do. Zach's prices to seem to be at a bit of a premium compared to other lawyers, but you get top notch service. I'd recommend Zach to anyone who finds them self in a tricky DUI situation.

      Simply the Best

      Posted by

      Faced a DUI charge with a refusal d/t unfamiliarity with state laws. Facing an unimaginable burden and other unexpected consequences, Mr Cooper was there at a moment's notice to answer all of my questions and help guide me through every step of the way. More importantly - he explained everything in a simple, straightforward and matter-of-fact manner. Mr Cooper provided me with the kind of reassurance that only a conscientious professional skilled at his craft could provide. I could not have hoped for a better outcome that what Mr Cooper was able to provide.

      I had a DUI in PA as well as charges in other Jurisdiction. Mr. Cooper coordinated with my attorney in the other Jurisdiction to come up with an overall strategy to come up with the best result. Mr. cooper managed my expectaions and I came out with a result that was BETTER than expected. Mr. Cooper was available at any time and always answered my questions even over the weekend. There are alot of DUI attorneys in PA but there is no need to reveiw them all, Zachary Cooper is the attorney you want to reprsent you if you have a DUI in PA.

      First DUI in December of 2016 and was in fear. Inquired the day after it happened and Zach immediately reached out to me, on a Sunday which is rare. Zach stayed by my side the entire time and I never felt like a bother. He explained the best and worst possible scenarios and was straight forward. Zach posses a spark that makes him stand out and his communications skills are unprecedented. 5 stars!

      Major reduction in my sentence...

      Posted by

      Zach was able to negotiate a huge reduction in my sentence through his expertise in handling DUI cases. He kept me assured throughout my case that we would have a strong defense which kept me confident and at ease in an otherwise difficult position.

      Excellent DUI Lawyer that will WORK for your case

      Posted by

      I hired Zachary Cooper as a 1st time DUI offender. My case involved my vehicle flipping over. From the first phone call, Zach assured me that he will take the necessary steps and actions to drive to the lowest penalty. Zach gave clear instructions of what to do and when to do them. Each step along the way, he was always reachable and attentive to my concerns. Even after being denied ARD twice due to a previous record, Zach did the unthinkable and got me the lowest DUI sentencing possible, just 6 months probation. His work kept me with my family, saved my license and preserved my occupation. Zach delivered.

      A GREAT REPRESENTATION!

      Posted by

      Attny Cooper, represents me in my DUI case in Bucks Cooper. His representation was very effective and lawyer. After preliminary hearings Zac follow-up on my case to the end. I was denied ADR as 1st offender based on the nature of mine, but he argued and I was given a 'minimum' penalty of probation with "conditions" not to report if I met my financial requirements. What I had taken from Zac is, he tells you the facts given the nature of your case. He advises you to take and follow all the required steps. I did and it all helped me out as well. Thanks, Zac. Son.

      Excellent lawyer!

      Posted by

      I hired Mr. Cooper to defend my son, who had very serious second DUI/suspended license charges against him. Theses carried mandatory jail sentences. Following Mr. Cooper's recommendations, (rehab), and with his skill and experience in this system, my son received probation, community service, fines, but no jail time. Not one day. He could have faced a minimum of two 90 sentences to serve consecutively. To say that I am happy with his service, and results would be a gross understatement. In my opinion, you simply cannot go wrong if you avail yourself of his services. He relates to you on a personal level, never rushed, or made to feel that you are just a number. He takes his time, and explains everything in detail. There is a reason that there are so many glowing reviews of Mr. Cooper. He is the one you want on your side.

      Todd La Neve, Criminal defense Attorney on Jun 20, 2012
      Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

      Zach Cooper is an outstanding lawyer. I could stop here, but will share briefly why I feel this way. Zach recently helped one of my brother's "in-law" family members who was charged with felony offenses that could have led to prison time and the total ruination of a young life. The case involved a genuine mistaken set of circumstances with no criminal intent present. Through Zach's capable defense, the young man not only avoided the felony charge, but entered a plea to a citation-level offense, paid restitution for same damage that had occurred, and his case was dismissed. Zach came through in a huge way for his client and is committed to doing the same for every one of his other clients. I made a family referral to Zach and have no reservations about saying you could do the same and rest assured that Zach will do all within his power to make a positive difference.

      Matthew Shindell, Criminal defense Attorney on Jun 15, 2012

      I endorse this lawyer.
