Excellent Representation

I am very thankful to Bill and his paralegal Gary for all of their hard work and effort towards my case. Both of them are extremely professional and put forth complete commitment towards me as a client. They were thorough and efficient throughout the process of handling my case. Due to the fact that they explained everything to me and kept me informed at all times, I had complete confidence in both of them. The end result of my case was positive and I couldn't have asked for better representation. I would highly recommend William Cope along with his hardworking paralegal Gary to anyone who would find themselves in need of this type of service.

Bankruptcy representation

Mr. Cope was referred to me by another lawyer friend. I found him very professional and easy to work with, everything was explained up front and all my questions were answered by Gary, his paralegal during the process which really made me feel comfortable given the stress of having to file a bankruptcy.
