About
Cooper Legal Services
Dwayne E. Cooper
- Solo General Practitioner - Although
I have to limit my caseload somewhat, I do enjoy taking a broad range of cases and find that being a solo
general practitioner keeps my legal skills sharp. Despite what some
large firms might mislead you to believe, the size of a law firm has
no bearing on the competence, cost or quality of the legal service. In
fact, solo general practitioners who work hard and make effective use of computer
technology are often many more times efficient than larger firms at quite a bit
lower cost.
- Personal Service -
I personally handle your case. Unlike many law firms, I do not delegate your legal work to a
secretary, paralegal, or law student.
- Research Expert - I invest
heavily in my library and in online research materials because I know that the ability to quickly access the
vast sources of information from my desktop or office provides me with
an advantage that makes my law office extremely competitive. Use of
this technology allows me to do my work quicker and more efficiently.
Through the use of the Internet, I maintain contact with several
hundred attorneys and many experts whose opinions I can access very
quickly.
- Communicator - As
a four year member of the Indiana University Debate team, I have had
the opportunity to travel across the nation in competition while
testing my communication skills with the best orators around the
nation. As a teacher, lecturer and newspaper reporter, I have had the
opportunity to further refine those skills. These past experiences
allow me to feel at ease in the courtroom and have given me the
confidence to be willing to go to the courtroom to ensure that your
interests are protected.
- Honest - At trial or in
negotiation, your case is only as good as your lawyer's credibility. Not
only am I bound by the ethics established by my bar
associations, but as a Christian, I abide by a much higher standard regarding my
conduct which I take very seriously. I will not assist in
criminal or fraudulent conduct or bring a frivolous suit. I'm not going to
lie to you or tell you something that you may want me to say. If I don't
know something, I will tell you that and do my best to find out that
information. Furthermore, honesty is
also something I expect and demand from every one of my clients.
- Respected - I am active in
several groups and bar associations on the local, state and national
level. I am fortunate to know and have contact with many attorneys
across the nation. If your case requires another type of attorney or
specialist in something I don't do, I will help refer you to someone who can
better help you.
- Reasonable fees - Computer
technology allows my office to deliver legal services that are
cost-effective. I do my best to keep you informed as to what your costs
are and will likely be in regards to your situation.
- Experienced - I've been fortunate enough to
have been practicing law in my own firm since 1997. I have had cases in
over 50 different counties throughout the state.
- Diligent - Despite an all
too often slow legal process, I will expedite your case as quickly as
possible and will keep you informed of the status of your case in a
timely manner. I believe people are often awarded for virtues such as
perseverance and hard work.
- Loyal - Respect for the
client's confidences and secrets demand that I represent the client
loyally and zealously without any conflicts of interest.
- Personal - I'm a real person with a real family
who does real things. I'm active in our local church. I enjoy
spending time with my wife and two kids. I love to fish. I enjoy
reading the Bible, American history and the law. Not only will you see
me in the courtroom, but you will also see me in the community.
- Accessible - When you have
a question concerning your case, I can be reached by mail, e-mail, fax
and phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Because I am often in court or
depostions or meetings, I may not be able to return your call
immediately. However, it is my goal to return all calls within 48 hours
in order of priority. Furthermore, because I
believe that all people should feel free to contact an attorney
without fear of cost, my initial consultation is free.
