LeAnne Cooper

We would highly recommend her for an attorney for any problem. She is easy to talk to, listens to what you have to say and knows exactly what to do. She is very well known and highly recommended by several other people. We will continue to use LeAnne as long as she remains an attorney.

CLIENT/FELLOW ATTORNEY

I AM A FELLOW ATTORNEY WHO HAS WORKED WITH LEANNE BOTH AS AN ADVERSARY AND COHORT. SHE IS A PROFESSIONAL IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD. I HAVE REFFERED MANY PEOPLE TO HER WITHOUT HESITATION AND HAVE RECEIVED MANY THANK'S FOR THE RECOMMENDATION AS A RESULT. SHE IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE NUMBER ONE DIVORCE A...TTORNEY IN THE AREA. THAT'S WHY SHE REPRESENTED ME IN MY DIVORCE.

Be Careful

LeAnne seems to have a great reputation in the area. However, my experience with her was horrible. Her family runs the office so they are very protective of her and cover for her. Personally my experience was horrible, nothing got done, she had me in court without appropriated documents being filed l...ike Financial affidavits even though I was in her office twice with my own budgets I prepared. All In all to be fair to her I think she was overwhelmed with cases and took on more than she could handle. As a client I expect an attorney to decline my business rather than take on my case and take my money and screw up my case. Be Careful before you hire her. I had to start all over with another attorney. $$$

"Mike" is currently on this third attorney, I was the second. During the time I represented him, I filed two different financial affidavits on his behalf and both are on file at the Courthouse. I welcome the posting of accurate reviews.

Posted by Dan | February 18, 2011 | Uncontested Divorce

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...his lawyer said I was supposed to do. I guess she cares about your case as long you're letting her bleed you dry.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Dec 29

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"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."

Divorce and separation lawyer | Mar 14

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"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."
