Quick to take action!

I was in a jam and Greg was quick to take action. I reached out to Greg only a week before my court date, he said check his schedule but couldn’t guarantee anything due to short notice. I understood, thankfully Greg was able to attend. I appreciate Greg for his flexibility, quick response, his profes...sionalism and his ability to be upfront and honest.

Fantastic consultation. I would definitely retain him if you need counsel.

Although I had a legal matter in Virginia Beach, Gregory Copeland was referred to me by somebody in DC. She spoke so highly of him that I had to reach out although I knew he wasn’t in my area. I have already had four consultations with other attorneys and did not I feel comfortable with letting any o...f them represent me. This was the most thorough and helpful consultation I had received thus far… Not only was he knowledgeable but he was extremely down to earth and spoke to me in layman‘s terms so that I understood exactly what he was saying. He told me from the beginning that he obviously wasn’t going to be able to take the case because he was hours away but he was happy to sit down and go over the case, strategies, and gave me some great direction in guidance on what to do next. I’m so thankful that I had the opportunity to speak to him it’s unfortunate he’s not closer to me. Thank you Gregory Copeland for all your help!!

Super lawyer

Greg is an amazing trial attorney. I co-chaired a double felony criminal case with Greg, that had many layers and we won because of Greg's passion for the administration of justice. Greg is a top-tier lawyer that you will want defending you in the courtroom. He's quick on his feet, a true advocate, a...nd knows everyone in the courthouse. He is committed to his clients and is passionate about the work that he does. I highly recommend him!

Excellent Attorney - Strongly Recommend!

My son got himself into legal trouble and was facing some serious felony time. Mr. Copeland was very professional, kind and knowledgeable. He worked tirelessly to get the sentence reduced and kept us informed every step of the way. He made a very difficult time easier for the entire family. I strong...ly recommend Mr. Copeland.
