His reports are very succinct and prepared according to our timetable. He is extremely well respected in the legal community. We have worked together for over 15 years and he always is very professional, friendly, thorough, and imaginative in crafting defenses in our suits.

I have worked with Mr. Stopher on a number of matters over a period of several years. In that time, I have found the quality of his legal representation of our company to be both exemplary and efficient. Perhaps most impressive has been his consistent understanding of the relationship between our goals as a business and the potential ramifications of each particular case.

Ed Stopher is the ultimate gentleman in representing his client, but also has the ability to be a tireless and devoted advocate. His demeanor toward the judges is very cordial and deferential, but all his arguments are presented so well that he gives the judges no choice but to agree with his position. I have worked with Mr. Stopher for 11 years and have always found him open, candid, charismatic, and a good person to socialize with. He brings this same demeanor to the courtroom and easily establishes rapport with the jury and court staff. He is also extremely intelligent and devoted to his client. He fairly presents both sides of the case, but once the decision is made on how to proceed he will do his utmost to represent the client. His correspondence is well written, concise, and able to communicate his point without sending a multi-page document.
