About Chad
Biography
Sensitive and Compassionate Representation.
Protect yourself, your kids, and your future.
People going through divorce are often scared, confused, and uncertain about what their future holds with their children and their finances.
That’s why Chad G. Koop enjoys instilling confidence in his clients to make sure they know they are in good hands through this difficult time.
“I have found that through my listening skills and genuine care for my clients, I have been able to quickly build trust and rapport with them,” Mr. Koop said. “That trust, supported by an open line of communication, allows my clients and I to have a level of comfort that is imperative to understanding not only their objectives, but often more importantly, how they would like to reach them.”
Mr. Koop said with these goals always in mind, he is better suited to explain the various legal and practical issues that are involved with the case and the options that are available to a person’s specific situation.
“It is rewarding for me to see my client’s look of relief after I explain to them a strategy that is going to help them achieve their goals,” he said.

I have been impressed with his knowledge of the law and procedure as well as his ability to hold the hand of clients going through difficult times. He is an excellent advocate, while at the same time is very good at evaluating his case and his client's best interest. I highly endorse Chad."
"Chad is one of the best family law attorneys that I have had the pleasure to have a case with. Chad represents his clients with class and with an attention to detail. He does an excellent job for his clients and manages his cases to avoid unnecessary issues and expense. When we meet, he is always prepared. He clearly works well with his clients and does a great job explaining things to his client which allows the process to move forward efficiently. Chad is fair and will always listen to both sides and do his best to help come up with a resolution that works for everyone because he truly cares for the overall well-being of the family. Not many family law attorneys take this approach. Chad is an honest no non-sense lawyer that I am happy to endorse. Chad is one of the good guys in this profession."
"Chad is an excellent family law attorney. He knows the law inside and out, fights hard in court, and is a savvy negotiator. Notably, Chad is very highly respected by family law attorneys - and also Magistrates and Judges - in the Greater Cincinnati area, and he has experience working in the counties of Hamilton, Warren, Butler, Clermont and even Brown, as well as throughout Northern Kentucky. He knows the system and he knows how to deal with "difficult" or unprofessional opposing counsel, always keeping his eye on the big picture. In addition, Chad is a great guy, and very easygoing to work with. At my first job, Chad was a major mentor to me, and I owe a lot of what I know about divorce and family law to him."
