My husband and I came in unsure of what to expect. We felt defeated, anxious and worried we might lose everything. Brad listened to our situation and was both understanding and sympathetic. He took us through the process, answered my 10 page questions efficiently and truly made it a painless experience. Thanks to Brad and Matt, we have a new start and bright future. Thank you Sadek and Cooper!! -Mel D.

I hired Patrick Cooper to represent me to gain custody of my nephew. After the first meeting I knew Pat was the right attorney for this matter. Pat, Yoninah and staff were always helpful in explaining the process and answering any questions or concerns I had. I would recommend Pat and Sadek and Cooper for any and all family court matters.

Sadek and Cooper law firm is the one of the best law firms I’ve ever dealt with in my adult life. They staff is wonderful and kind! They have great customer service and they assists you with your every need. I’ve looked for a lot of lawyers when it came to bankruptcy, but none of them fit the bill. I didn’t second guess Sadek and Cooper at all. My gut feeling told me that they were the fit and the law firm to help me. And I’ve never looked back since.

Sadek and Cooper was fast efficient and made me feel at ease when I felt discouraged about the wrong Choice’s I’ve made not knowing the facts about credit and how to use it the right way. I just Loved the credit Counseling courses that explains the do’s and don’t the want and needs and the ups and downs of credit which has now gave me more knowledge to understand how to use credit 🤓🤓 Thank you so much for helping me out of this Deep Hole and putting me on the road to Credit recovery 😘😊

Matt Lazarus and the rest of the firm were absolutely wonderful. They held my hand through the whole process of my bankruptcy and made sure I knew what was happening every step of the way. They worked with my schedule and location to make every step as easy and smooth as possible. If every I need any legal advice in the future, I know exactly who I'm going to!

Well... About a year ago I was faced with an unpleasant (but necessary) decision. I contacted Sadek and Cooper to make an appointment and ended up speaking with Brad. I brought all of the required/requested information and we did some calculations together (I like numbers) to see what my options were. The process was relaxed and transparent, and his advice was neutral and objective (in my opinion). I ended up filing for CH13, which allowed me to keep my property. I worked with Matt for the remainder of the process. He was communicative, helpful, and very patient with someone like me who asks A LOT of questions. If you're going to go for CH7 or CH13 I'd suggest at least talking to Sadek & Cooper to get an idea of what your options are. And if you decide to go through it with them I can't imagine you'll be disappointed (as lond as YOU do what's required on time, etc. of course). We're talking about court here, so it's best to be early and over-prepared for everything. I hope I never have to use their services again (for obvious reasons lol), but I'm certainly very happy that I DID when I needed to. They helped me tremendously and it has been SMOOTH SAILING since my CH13 plan was approved. I wish them all the best and look forward to the end of my CH13 and it being cleared from my record eventually. If you're considering CH7 or 13 DO your RESEARCH. Don't be "afraid", educate yourself, be an INFORMED consumer. And go talk to Sadek & Cooper for some SOUND advice and a good analysis of your options! SOONER rather than LATER. Don't wait until the last minute.

Thank you, Sadek and Cooper Law offices for your dedication on my behalf. I appreciate Matthew and Patrick and your staff and all that everyone did to support me in this legal matter. You took an embarrassing, sad experience, for me, and turned it into a successful solution without all the emotional pain expected. After dealing with a loan modification company for over eighteen months without going to an attorney first that is the biggest mistake anyone can make. The Modification Companies set out to sell you lies, broken promises and dilute the homeowner's assets with no knowledge of any kind of law. I can't stress enough stay away from Modification companies, as a Military Veteran and family man, protect you or your family best interest. Go directly to Sadek and Copper you will not regret it! This firm moves with Super speed and diligence protecting you and your family's the entire process, even after watching some of these other attorneys in the courtroom appearing to mishandled their clients’ cases before the Trustee. You made it easy and I’m finally getting my financial life back on track! Thank you for your prompt replies to me, your clear information and preparation needed when at the courthouse. I would of course recommend you to others and I am glad you were the one who had my case. Kind genuine law firm who treats you like family. God bless you all and I pray for your continued success in your field of expertise. This firm is Super Lawyers for a reason. They are the best at what they do! Pete

Brad Sadek gave me hope when he decided to handle my mortgage for enclosure defense. I had exactly 10 days left of the 30 days ultimatum given me, but he was able to bargain for an extra 30 days for me to pay up. That duration turned out just right.
