"I joined C&W because of its commitment to quality legal work in a positive environment that promotes a balance between professional and personal ambitions."   (D. Strup) "My decision to join C&W was based on my experience as a client of the firm.  During my years as inside counsel at a major corporation, I had the opportunity to work with C&W on several litigation matters.  It was a pleasure working with C&W lawyers  -  they were always well-prepared, knowledgeable, responsive, and completely dedicated to the best interests of their clients.  I knew that practicing law with this firm was the right decision for me."  (S. Clark)      "I joined C&W because of the opportunities I would have to work alongside with and learn from established attorneys at the top of their profession."  (S. Skow)

Cooper & Walinski is an established but growing litigation firm located in Toledo, Ohio.  In recent years, the firm has hired two or three new associates each year.  The firm's culture is relaxed yet professional.  Staff and attorneys interact on a first-name basis.

The firm offers a new attorney the opportunity to work in a variety of practice areas and the freedom to pursue areas of personal interest.  C&W's attorneys share a commitment to professionalism and excellence while recognizing that each person must have a life outside the law, including family and personal relationships, public service, and other activities.

The firm sponsors a public-interest law fellowship for first- and second-year law students at The University of Toledo College of Law.  It also sponsors a brief-writing prize for first-year law students.
