She is not just a lawyer....she has a heart and actually cares.
I went to LeAnne scared to death with papers my husband had drawn up for divorce that he just wanted me to sign without legal representation... I knew what he was offering was not "right." I knew I should have been getting more than he was offering in assets and child support. She immediately gave...

You Can't Go Wrong!
I paid a substantial retainer fee for an attorney when I initially filed for divorce. That retainer fee had quickly dissolved in a matter of a couple of months. Unfortunately, very little had been accomplished, and I felt disconnected with my attorney. That is when I decided a change was needed,...

Loves to Bill
Turned my uncontested divorce into a contested one pretty quickly, then asked for and got a high four figure retainer, which she then proceeded to burn through insanely fast. Then she wanted to withdraw from my case, which was far from over b/c my ex was beyond mad at that point b/c of all the crap t...
LeAnne Passmore Cooper's Lawyer Endorsements
"LeAnne is a true advocate for her clients and a great member of our legal community. I highly recommend LeAnne as a domestic relations attorney."
"LeAnne, along with another lawyer, provided me with my first opportunity as a lawyer out of law school. I learned, in a short time, everything there is to know about a domestic law practice. She is a kind and caring person when dealing with clients and absolutely resolute advocate in the courtroom. She has high expectations of herself and her staff and I would recommend her for any possible domestic issue that you might face."
"I have handled numerous cases during the past 15 years with LeAnne as opposing counsel, and she has also worked with me as co-counsel on at least one matter. LeAnne always represented her clients zealously. She takes the time to develop a thorough understanding of the issues and facts related to her clients' cases. This might seem to be a "given" when you hire any attorney, but I can assure you that it is not. I must say that what most impresses me about LeAnne is her confidence in the courtroom and her thorough knowledge of the law. I endorse LeAnne for any family law matter."
