David E. Roop, Jr.

David Roop is a wonderful lawyer and a terrific guy! He was everything you would want your divorce lawyer to be.

It is obvious that David is a very busy man when dealing with him. However, when he is focused on your case it is as if there are no other cases on his schedule. He is empathetic, sympathetic and vastly knowledgeable about family law. I never doubted that David and Alex always considered and work toward what was best for my children and me.

David Roop personifies the term "counselor" in his representation of clients. He combines his knowledge of the law with sound judgment to craft comprehensive, strategic and goal-oriented approaches to achieving great results for his clients. Mr. Roop also understands how to relate on a personal level with his clients; understanding on a deeper level the family issues and dynamics that make family law complicated and unique. This allows him to effectively negotiate real solutions for his clients, which is sometimes unique for a lawyer. He also happens to be very funny, personable, and smart.

David is exceptionally able; creative in crafting the case and action forward. He is able to diffuse heated exchanges effectively and he is aware of difficult hurdles in getting to and winning in court. David is good at helping the client understand, evaluate and choose action options as well as helping them get past emotional blinders to understand realistically what should be done. He is focused on the short and long-term welfare of the children. He has a great team and is a good leader for them. He is a truly fine professional.

David had very reasoned and consistent counsel throughout the process. Family law is a very stressful undertaking, and he made my life better in the midst of a tumultuous time. He predicted accurately opposing counsel's moves, anticipated them, and knew at every step how he was going to respond. He was always five steps ahead.

As someone who holds a law degree, I can say that David Roop is a brilliant and effective family law attorney. He has a deep and analytical understanding of family law (even when the matter involves conflicting laws in different jurisdictions), is a superb strategist and communicator, and treated my case and me with a spirit of compassion and understanding. I was very fortunate to have Mr. Roop as my attorney, and I will always be grateful for what he accomplished on my behalf. He has earned the respect of his peers, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a great lawyer.
