Resourceful Attorneys who Get Results for Our Clients

Our founding attorney, Steven M. Cooper is a widely respected lawyer  with a over a 40-year track record of positive outcomes in groundbreaking personal injury cases and other high-value civil litigation. His successes have included winning verdicts against the District of Columbia, multimillion-dollar settlements and verdict in auto accidents, medical malpractice, premises liability, governmental tort liability and other personal injury cases, with positive financial results for countless other individuals and families.

Mr. Cooper's eldest daughter Stephanie C. Freer joined our firm in 2006, bringing a depth of perspective and other complementary skills. Ms. Freer's skills also broadened our firm’s capabilities, allowing for increased emphasis on family law cases involving divorce, child custody and support, and mediation as well as criminal defense and traffic matters.

We provide free consultations on potential personal injury cases including medical malpractice and, if we are able to take your case, we charge no fees or expenses unless we obtain a settlement or verdict in your favor.

A Diverse Professional Legal Team, Always Accessible to You
