Patrick was great.

Patrick walked me through a complicated divorce. I appreciate his help.

Posted by anonymous | February 24, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Contracts & Agreements

Very, very impressed!

After dealing with a horrible lawyer during my divorce, I had little faith in lawyers and the legal system as a whole. I recently used Mr. Copley for a breech of contract suit which required a full day bench trial in the Johnson County District Court. Mr. Copley was well prepared and I always felt v...ery confident in his knowledge of the laws and my case. He was able to win the case for me, and not only was I able to recover my financial losses, he was able to recoup damages that I was not expecting to receive. While I hope for no further legal issues, I would definitely call upon Mr. Copley again if anything were to arise.

Review for Patrick Copley

Patrick wrote a prenuptial agreement for me before I got married. He was helpful explaining my rights and I would recommend his services to anyone that needed help with a family law issue.

Aggressive and Effective!

Patrick represented me in a business dispute that went awry and ended up in litigation. His understanding of the issues and informed counsel led to a favorable resolution. Patrick kept me informed throughout the process. I understood what was happening and slept well knowing Patrick was on the case.... If I am ever in need of legal counsel, Patrick is my first call.
