Posted by Alicia | July 01, 2012 | Child Custody

Child Custody

I hired Mr. Cooper from an Ad on a spur of moment and he took my case right on. He helped me with a Child Custody order in which we won. I would recommend me to anyone and have in the past. He really listens and put the needs of my child first which is something rare, most lawyers in my eyes are all... about the money and the wins. I would use him again anytime.
