OUR OFFICE MANAGER EXTRAORDINAIRE Meet Erica Cooper
In order to ensure all of our wonderful clients know just how valued they are by our team here at the Law Office of William F. Underwood, III, we have to do some pretty fancy logistical
“Lately, we’ve been busier at the firm than ever,” she says. “But I try to always be the calm in the middle of the chaos. When others get frustrated, I’m the person telling them, ‘Don’t worry — everything’s going to be okay!’” Since she started here in September, Erica’s come to see the Underwood team as more than a collection of coworkers. “We’re really like a family,” she says. “We’ve all developed such a deep trust between one another, which is important when you need to sit down and collaborate to find solutions.” Outside of the office, Erica loves to spend time with her 16-year-old daughter and her 10-year-old son, going to the lake and spending time outdoors. “Work and kids are basically my life,” she says. “But I keep it fun in both categories. Though it’s important to manage your time and stay organized, you also need to leave room to joke around and really connect to the people you care about.” Whether she’s fielding client questions or wrangling paperwork, we’re lucky to have a talented individual like Erica on our team. Although she’s only been here a little under a year, we’re excited to see all the incredible things she accomplishes moving forward!
footwork behind the scenes. It’s vital to us that every case be treated with the careful consideration and attention to detail that characterizes our approach here at the firm, no matter how big or small it may be. To do that, our small team needs to be constantly at the top of our game, preventing even the smallest of details from falling through the cracks. Luckily, we’ve got our incredible office manager, Erica Cooper, on our side, using her keen logistical eye to keep everything shipshape. Aside from being an essential part of our day-to-day operations, she’s a consistently positive presence around the office, thriving even in the midst of the most hectic days imaginable. But, of course, Erica didn’t become an organizational expert by accident. She has years of experience. From her 15 years as a banker to her experience in facilitating the operations of startup corporations, she’s the office manager most businesses could only dream of.
