Zach is not just an excellent lawyer, he is a very caring one,

Zach represented me in selling and obtaining an equitable settlement on a house I owned jointly. He did this with thoroughness and empathy for the stress I was under during the process.

Compassionate Client Centric Attorney

Zach Coon helped me with a debt judgement, against me, with patience and professionalism. Zach took his time explaining, all of my options regarding my case. I was riddled with anxiety, and Zach was able to communicate, in a manner that put my mind at ease. He was able to walk me through the pr...ocess and was a true advocate. In less than 48 hours he settled my case, with opposing counsel. Zach then took his Friday evening , after 6 pm, to call me and provide me the positive outcome. He knew I was in a compromised position, and looked out for my family’s well-being. If anyone needs an attorney that will provide a positive experience, in a very difficult situation, I would highly recommend Zach as your choice for a lawyer.

Commercial Litigation Issue—Exceptional Lawyer and Great Guy!!

Bottom Line: Mr. Zach Coon operates with an exceptional level of integrity and is one of the best lawyers I have ever worked with. My situation involved commercial litigation and dispute resolution, and I couldn’t have asked for better support during the stressful aftermath of an event. I reached... out to Coon & Cole, LLC for legal advice regarding an issue that arose at my wedding. Before contacting them, I researched law firms specializing in commercial litigation and dispute resolution. The positive reviews I found didn't fully capture the level of service I received. During my consultation with Mr. Zach Coon, I was thoroughly impressed by his subject matter expertise, communication skills, and, most importantly, his character. After I explained my issue, he listened attentively, referencing details I thought were too minor to mention. His honest, thoughtful, and constructive legal advice was accompanied by genuine sympathy and compassion, which was crucial for me as I had never faced a situation like this before. I often worry that lawyers lose interest after receiving payment or focus on inflating the situation for profit. However, Zach demonstrated that he prioritizes the client's best interests. He provided multiple perspectives, patiently answered my questions, and clearly articulated his recommended steps, all while ensuring I felt comfortable throughout the process. The route he suggested didn't seem aimed at maximizing costs for either of us; instead, it felt genuinely focused on resolving my issue. As I reached a resolution that did not require going further (legal processes), I informed Zach who congratulated me and responded with sincere excitement and lauded me for the courage I had to have for navigating the issue. As a result of my interaction with Zach, I have complete trust in him as a lawyer and Coon & Cole, LLC. While my case didn't result in a lengthy or costly engagement, it significantly renewed my confidence in legal experts. Mr. Zach Coon brought me comfort and reassurance, and I truly believe he is a good man with a good heart. I would recommend him to all my friends and anyone seeking legal advice—if he practices it, you can trust him.

I CANNOT RECOMMEND ZACHARY ENOUGH! TRULY!

Zachary was beyond helpful in a situation my husband and I were in recently where we reached out and acquired his services. I cannot express in words how easy Zach was to work with, and how much he helped put our fears at ease. His assistance was bar none, and I am nearly positive that we would not h...ave had the same outcome had he not been our attorney. He communicated with us throughout the entire process, was extremely responsive, and helped us through a situation that could have had a completely different result had we not been fortunate enough to have Zach and his beyond exceptional services.
