Biography
WILLIAM COOPER joined Francis Mailman Soumilas, P.C. right after law school so he could dedicate his career to fighting for consumers who have been harmed by unfair business practices. At FMS, Will represents consumers against a variety of corporations, including background check companies, credit bureaus, banks, and credit card companies.
Will has been an advocate for underdogs since he first entered the legal world. Before coming to FMS, he worked for a non-profit housing law project where he protected low-income tenants in disputes with their landlords. Following that, he was a part of the legal services plan offered to members of a union for municipal employees, before joining a firm representing victims of catastrophic personal injuries and medical malpractice.
Will obtained his B.S. from Northeastern University and his J.D. from Brooklyn Law School, where he was an editor for the Brooklyn Journal of International Law and a member of the legal honor society Phi Delta Phi. He is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania state court as well as before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
