Lisa Ann Kopelman

As others have mentioned here, from my very first call with Lisa I felt much more calm about my situation. She was very organized and reassuring through the whole process. Her demeanor is very calm and she responds immediately. We had to do a Zoom hearing as I don't live in the area, which she arrang...ed against the court's will. Then to add to her professionalism, the judge complimented her on her execution of my case and having all the paperwork done perfectly under unconventional circumstances. I highly recommend Ms. Kopelman. 10/10

I've never written a Google review before but I had such a positive outcome in my case that I'd like to recommend Ms. Kopelman's practice to those in need of an attorney who can support you through your ordeal. I spoke with a few attorneys when I found myself involved in an unexpected legal mess. I w...as really frustrated just trying to figure out legal representation, which I've never needed before. Some attorneys were impossible to even reach. I got a lot of answering services. Some attorneys honestly explained why they COULDN'T help me. I was scared and needed help. Lisa Kopelman's name had been given to me by a friend who's son had used her. I left a message with her service at the end of a business day and was shocked and relieved when she called me back the same afternoon. Lisa made an appointment with me for the very next day and, for the first time since my problem started, I started to feel like maybe there was a way forward. I did not realize the full scope of my situation until Lisa heard me out and put everything into a legal context. I was actually more concerned about some issues that turned out to be more about my reputation than actual legal problems. Lisa distilled the real legal matters and outlined a comprehensive plan of action. I'm an educator and tried to research the laws and court precedents. I felt pretty informed and totally overwhelmed. That's when a colleague pointed out to me that getting a lawyer is like going to a surgeon. You learn what you can about your condition but you have to put yourself in the hands of the expert when it comes to the actual surgery. So you better make sure you're in the best hands possible. And you have to trust they have only your best interest at heart and they know exactly what you need. It may sound hokey, but this made perfect sense to me. Once I realized that I had done my due diligence in selecting Lisa, I decided it wasn't helping me or my case to worry constantly. I hired an attorney who I felt had a ton of experience and who would turn over every stone to help me and not miss anything. I can't say I ever felt completely safe during the whole ordeal but I did feel like I'd done all I could and Lisa would take it from there to do everything she could. She was very serious about being thorough. In the end, I was spared a lot of unnecessary court appearances and Lisa negotiated a resolution, with the other parties involved, that I thought greatly favored me. Not everything went completely my way but I know it went as well as possible. I told Lisa that I hope I never need her services again but it gives me great peace of mind to know she's there.

Lisa defended my son against very serious charges and achieved the outcome we had hoped for while up against a very a formidable prosecution. She is very knowledgeable and highly skilled in strategy and tactics which provides assurance of a superior defense. Lisa is highly capable of defending again...st the most serious charges. She is realistic and capable of achieving the best outcomes possible. She will find the best defense experts when necessary and when possible. Lisa shows a high degree of commitment to every client. Lisa is a terrific criminal defense lawyer and I would highly recommend her.

Ms. Kopelman helped my son. We knew he was innocent and we knew she was the one who could help. We talked to a lot of lawyers when we were looking for help and she knew the law better than anyone we talked to and laid out a plan to get him out of jail. My whole family thanks her. My son is now back h...ome.

I was desperate, hopeless and felt taken advantage of - by the police, the system and my prior attorneys. Then, I was represented by Lisa Kopelman (Assistant Public Defender). She is knowledgeable, experienced and caring. She was able to argue on my behalf and spend time explaining the process and... my options. Once I knew my options, I was able to make an informed decision that made me feel confident and secure. I would highly recommend her.
