Great addition to any case

Kelli was a great addition to my case. I would have been lost without her. She was kind and straight forward.

Uncontested Divorce

Kelli was recommended to me by someone close I know and she was nothing but amazing, as well as her paralegal Heather. They both were very professional and very helpful with any questions I had. Kelli made sure that the very best interest of our little girl was most important. A big thank you to Kell...i and Heather for making our situation an easy process. I highly recommend!!!!!

Uncontested divorce - with kids

Kelli and her office did a great job completing my paperwork for my uncontested divorce with kids. The price was right, probably because Kelli and her office were so organized and efficient and knowledgeable that the time we spent was a fraction of the time it would have taken with another lawyer.... We worked up the paperwork details remotely and Kelli quickly completed the paperwork (mostly while talking with me) and sent it back with a form email containing full instructions on mailing, notarization, and court details. They have obviously done this many times and I really appreciated how streamlined the entire process was. In addition to being very organized, Kelli came across as intelligent and competent and I had no qualms about possibly retaining her as my attorney should it have moved to a contested divorce. I give a very strong recommendation to using Kelli Cooper as your divorce attorney.

Father and son

Kelli was amazing in the court room! We maintained contact since the original consultation and through the end. Kelli made sure she knew what I wanted in my custody, and that is what I got. I’m a father and have my son everyday because Kelli understood what it meant for my son to be taken care of. Th...ank you Kelli

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"In my practice, often there is some overlap between divorce and tax and probate issues. In this regard, I have worked with Kelli in assisting her family law clients with the tax ramifications of property settlement agreements. I trust Kelli and respect her legal acumen and do not hesitate to provide her name to people seeking family law counsel."

"Kelli is a fighter who is dedicated to doing all that she can for her clients. I have had the opportunity to refer multiple clients her way. Each client has come away impressed by her ability to protect their interests through a divorce proceeding. Don't let Kelli's courteous bed-side manner fool you...she's a fighter and will do so if/when the situation calls for it. Simply put, I can't recommend Kelli any more highly."

"I have worked with Kelli before on cases. She has taken the family law aspect of the case, and I have taken the criminal law portion. She's fantastic to work with. She fights vigorously, is very knowledgeable, is respected by opposing counsel, and respected by the judges. She also is the best attorney around for animal law. I don't know of any other attorney who specializes in that very nuanced and specific area of the law. I endorse this attorney."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
