Ronald Edwin Cooley

Attorney Ron Cooley has a reputation for success in criminal defense – one that carries weight in legal circles, with business leaders, and throughout the community because he is highly competent and honest. This is the result of his involvement in numerous high-profile cases involving complex legal... issues and individual rights in NC. More methodical than mercurial, he is known for his diligence and long working hours, and returns phone calls and emails with incredible speed. He understands the legal issues of each case, and his drive is to be the best. I have hired Ron Cooley to defend me in two complex cases in Orange County, NC and I am extremely grateful for his counsel. He truly is a hard driving defense attorney.

Mr. Cooley represented me in a very difficult fight with my ex over custody of our children. He kept his focus on what was good for our children no matter how much my ex and my ex’s lawyer tried to twist the case into personal battles between us. I really appreciate how he worked to diffuse the emoti...ons and keep us on track! I met with other attorneys before hiring Mr. Cooley. I hired him because I liked his “no bull” attitude, how he would fight when necessary — but ONLY when necessary, and because of how his retainer spelled out exactly what would be done and how it would be charged. All the other retainers I looked at were legalese gobily-gook that didn’t explain what I wanted explained. I recommend him completely if you have a case that may need a fighter!
