Greatest Attorney!

As a proud Disabled American Veteran, (Naval Submarine Service) who has long since seen his days of service come to pass, I never expected to, metaphorically speaking, have to fight another "battle" here on my country’s home-front: Surviving day to day as a senior citizen, with overwhelming medical... bills, on a fixed income. Sadly my wife of many years fought this struggle with me. Together we sought the help of a man who changed our lives forever. Because of our emotional victory, I felt compelled to write this review. It cannot be overstated that Attorney Jon Cooper at San Diego Legal Pros is the most stellar Bankruptcy Attorney, in all of San Diego. After months of agonized hunting for an experienced Attorney to rescue us from our financial predicament, without adding to our money woes, we narrowed our search to those offering the most reasonable rates. While Attorney Cooper certainly filled that qualification, we never expected this fine gentleman would give us something we never realized we needed even more than just an affordable fresh start: Our dignity. From the moment we retained him to the miraculous day we received our final discharge papers, Attorney Cooper treated my wife and me with a blend of compassion and respect, by taking into account our fear and embarrassment. His ease of expertise, professionalism, and unparalleled interpersonal skills made our financial recovery a painless one, giving us closure to a darker past, & opening the door to a brighter future. Please… save yourself the time, money, and heartache of looking for a better B.K. Attorney, because you won't find one; (Except in his team of fine Associates at Legal Pro's, who clearly share his high ideals.) In short, Attorney Jon Cooper gave my wife and me something we hadn't felt in years: HOPE. So even in the wake of our world's health crisis, we've never felt stronger.

Professional and Competent

This attorney will provide you with the honest, non-judgmental, assessment of your bankruptcy options. This and his competent approach is what anyone feeling the weight of debt will need to get a fresh start in life. Jon Cooper was very professional and he handled my Chapter 7 case flawlessly. His... fees were very reasonable and his responsiveness was reassuring at a time when someone facing bankruptcy would need it the most. Moreover, his thorough preparation of the filing documents and supporting information covered all eventualities. This preparation allowed my case to progress with no interruptions, when, in contrast, many other peoples’ cases at the required creditors’ meeting in a bankruptcy court did face challenges and interruptions. I would recommend Mr. Cooper to any of my closest friends or family as he is very professional, trustworthy and personable. His candor and empathetic demeanor contrasts favorably against the larger, financially motivated firms in the San Diego area. I chose his representation after contacting several firms in the area. All of the other firms were more interested in my business rather than finding a solution to my financial situation (even at the risk of being as overbearing as creditor calls!). At Jon’s consultation, in comparison, I immediately noticed that he was the most professional attorney I contacted. I have full confidence in Jon Cooper and I know that any other client of his would receive the same professional service and attention. Also, I am more than confident that any other potential debtor who employs Jon to represent them for a bankruptcy will be more than satisfied with his services. Perhaps I am a bit emotional following as successful bankruptcy, as most anyone would with a fresh start in life, but I always wish his practice the opportunity to help as many individuals as possible. Truly, in life, the smallest help at the most critical moment has the power to make up for the most difficult past circumstances! A satisfied client, Eric G. (going on 3rd year of successful post-bankruptcy life)

Outstanding Bankruptcy Attorney

Jon M.Cooper was very professional and he handled my Chapter 7 case flawlessly. His fees were very reasonable and his responsiveness was reassuring at a time when someone facing bankruptcy would need it the most. Moreover, his thorough preparation of the filing documents and supporting information co...vered all eventualities and allowed my case to progress with no interruptions, when many other cases at the 341 meeting did. I would recommend this attorney to any of my closest friends or family as he is very professional, trustworthy and personable. To me, Jon Cooper's professional yet personable feel contrasts favorably against the financially motivated-larger firms in the San Diego area. I chose his representation after contacting several firms in San Diego, all of which felt more interested in my business rather than finding a solution to my financial situation. In contrast, at the consultation with Jon I felt that his law firm was the most professional of all those I contacted. I have full confidence in Jon Cooper and know that any other potential bankruptcy debtor would receive the same professional service and attention from him. Also, I am more than confident that any other potential debtor who employs Jon to represent them for a bankruptcy will be more than satisfied with his services. A satisfied client, E. G.
