Cooper Levenson, P.A.

In the evolving and often relentless world of workers' compensation, Cooper Levenson has earned a preeminent reputation among insureds, insurance companies, and third-party administrators. Our ability to evaluate and process claims wisely and efficiently - consistent with the strategic guidelines set by our clients - is unmatched. We understand the pressures and priorities related to the timely disposition of these cases, whether complex or routine, and we offer distinct advantages to those whose interests we serve:

• Knowing the landscape - Our attorneys have a deep and detailed understanding of the system and its participants, as well as every aspect of the current and relevant law.
• Careful case assessment - Knowing which claims to settle and which ones to litigate aggressively is the critical first step in achieving a balance between minimizing costs, discouraging frivolous actions, and maintaining positive workplace morale.
• Precise and thorough approach - Beginning with the careful evaluation of each claim, including its medical implications and management, through its final disposition, we pay meticulous attention to every important detail.
• Careful stewardship of client resources - We delineate responsibilities inside the practice in the most cost-effective manner, assigning our experienced paralegals to important matters that do not require an attorney's involvement.
• Technology - Our powerful, practice-specific IT resources allow us to manage, process, and protect all information related to our workers' compensation cases. We are equally comfortable and adept operating in either a "paperless" or more traditional hard-copy environment, and can configure our systems to work seamlessly with yours.
• Demonstrated excellence - We are approved by a preponderance of insurance carriers and third-party administrators.
• Communication - We know from long experience the importance of maintaining open, ongoing communication with our clients, and we are committed to being available whenever we're needed.
• Full-firm resources - Many clients appreciate knowing that Cooper Levenson offers the multi-practice support of a major firm to assist in any legal matter related to their business.

At Cooper Levenson, we believe our future rests in our collective ability to embrace change and leverage diversity through our leadership, employment, and continued community support. We believe that diversity is critical to our business strategy, our relationships with our clients and employees and will improve our competitiveness and prospects for long-term success.

The firm is a member of the New Jersey Law Firm Group, which is comprised of New Jersey Law firms, corporate legal departments, governmental agencies and public interest organizations that recognize the importance and advantages of diversity in not only serving the needs of clients but also in enhancing the legitimacy and public image of the legal profession. Each year, this organization provides a fellowship, a job fair, mentor programs and roundtable discussions at each of New Jersey's law schools to demystify the recruitment process and to encourage participation in the group's programs.

Cooper Levenson is also a member of the Minority Counsel Program of the American Bar Association, Commission on Racial and Ethnic Diversity in the Profession. The mission of this organization is to promote diversity in the legal profession through education and by building relationships between corporations and lawyers who are racially and ethnically diverse.

Committed to diversity issues since its very inception, firm founder, James Cooper was a member of President Kennedy's Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights, having litigated civil rights cases in Mississippi in 1966. One of our attorneys was the first woman president of the Atlantic County Bar Association. While in law school, another of our attorneys served as the National Executive Director of the National Black Law Students Association, which presided over all Black law student associations around the country.

Cooper Levenson is proud of this commitment to diversity among its clients, its employees and its community support.
