Alan B. Cooper

If Alan Cooper said he'd do something, that meant he'd do it (maybe) 3 weeks later. Consistently dropping the ball, requiring us to call, text and email him constantly to figure out if he'd done what he'd said he would do. His responses were always vague. Often did something different than agreed upo...n with us and played stupid (he probably forgot what we agreed upon anyway). This resulted in thousands of dollars needlessly lost in our case and significant life holdups. Will not hire again for anything at all, whatsoever.

Alan cooper would come to court unprepared and not even have or review my file, another time he yelled at me in front of my ex-husband and referee because I was trying to remind him of what to say because he couldn't remember and he said, "Don't you ever f------ interrupt me again" Mr. Cooper got si...ck of dealing with the drama of my divorce, which was difficult, he began snapping at me, hanging up on me-the final straw came when I had to go to arbitration and he told me he didn't need to be there and all I needed to do is bring a list of our belongings and split them, I went to arbitration alone and my ex showed up with his attorney and a 30 page report of items we never owned. In short, I got full custody of my kids (because of the PPO I filed, not because of Cooper) and lost everything in a 5,000 sft house, lost my house, and had to pay my ex $5,000 and my ex's legal fees - which Cooper had slid into the divorce finalization papers last minute- I say last minute because we were supposed to have a trial at 9am and Cooper showed up 5 min before lunch, made a deal and pressured me to sign it. You might think this is not a big deal but my ex had sold 3 cars in the divorce, turned off my phone and I had lost my business- causing me to go on welfare and without heat. Mr. Cooper simply told me at the end- its no big deal, you'll get back on your feet. He made me feel neglected, abused and frustrated-80% of the time. Cooper is only interested in high money easy divorces where he can take all the money-and run over the backs of the broken on his way out. In contrast- I later went back and hired another attorney and they were able to stop my ex from taking me to court and order a psych exam which he had failed- the judges knew this attorney and his father and they were very well respected- they treated me like I was a person that mattered- going to court 1 time with the new attorney- was more effective than 100 times with Cooper
