N. Eric Cooper graduated from Baylor Law School in 2002. Following graduation, he was sought after by several firms but decided to accept a position with a regional defense firm in Longview. Eric chose this office because of the lifestyle offered by Longview and the surrounding East Texas area.
In 2007, Eric left his lucrative large firm defense practice and began representing individuals and families injured as the result of someone or some company’s thoughtless and careless actions. Eric has been successful in seeking justice for numerous individuals and families in the East Texas area. Moreover, Eric is especially proud that on multiple occasions he has taken cases turned away by other attorneys who considered the cases unwinnable. After Eric’s creative and diligent representation, the cases were successfully resolved resulting in substantial recoveries for the clients.
Eric’s practice primarily focuses on vehicle collisions of various sorts (i.e. car wrecks, truck wrecks, motorcycle wrecks, 18- wheeler wrecks, pedestrian/vehicle collisions), but also Eric has successfully litigated medical malpractice cases, oil field injury cases, premises liability cases such as slip and fall/trip and fall, as well as many other personal injury cases. Additionally, Eric has experience in products liability cases where a product has caused injury to individuals because of a defective condition in its design, marketing, or manufacture (i.e. defective cars, machines and pharmaceutical drugs that caused injury to the product user.)
Eric prides himself on providing each client his personal attention and his professional expertise to seek the best result. Eric is committed to keeping the client informed on all major case developments so that when the time comes for the client to make a decision in the litigation, it is made with informed confidence. In an industry where some attorneys avoid contact with their own clients, Eric makes it his practice to take calls from clients whenever possible and return calls by the end of business whenever circumstances allow.
Furthermore, Eric spends so much one-on-one time with his clients that frequently friendships are formed that last well after the cases have been resolved.
Eric is married to Rebeca Cooper, and father to three wonderful children, Sofia, Aiden and Simon.
