Jean McCoy's practice focus is real estate transactions and conflict resolution, landlord/tenant and creditors' rights. A tough advocate with an easygoing demeanor, she finds that the good relationships she's built within the legal community ultimately help her work efficiently for her clients. She's motivated by the positive impact she sees in her clients' lives when she helps them prevail in a contested case or settle a contentious dispute.
Jean traces her earliest inspiration for pursuing a law career to a childhood fascination with TV's Perry Mason. Now her own inquisitive mind leads her to do factual investigative work to better predict the outcome of contested matters. These days, the stories that inspire her are the real-life experiences of her clients.
“Understanding my clients’ goals is the first step to a successful outcome.”
