    Meeting Jonathan Cooper literally saved my life. Mr. Cooper was not just knowledgeable about my situation and the possible outcome, but he was honest and kind in handling the delicacies. He had the ability to know what i needed when I did not know for myself and guided me step by step on how to not just get the best outcome for my case, but to better myself and my life in general. As a result of his services, I am a stronger person today who lives a life I can be proud of. As for the outcome of my case specifically, he was vigilant and persistent in my getting an outcome that was appropriate for my situation. Honestly, he worked a miracle for me and I am forever grateful for that. I would recommend his services to anyone who feels as if they have a hopeless situation ahead, because he creates hope through his abilities as an attorney.

    Even though this was just a free consult, Mr. Cooper took his time, was very personable and made certain I was taken care of. It didn't feel rushed or like he was trying to "sell" me. Overall, it was a great experience. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to my close friends and family. That says alot!
