Be able to persevere when you have a challenge, have staying power, be true to who you are, and acknowledge your voice, and it will all fall into place</em>.</strong> - Lisa Darnley Cooper<br /> <br /></p> <p><a href= "https://www.handfirm.com/proposal/hughes-state-farm-2/lisa-darnley-cooper/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lisa Darnley Cooper</a> attended law school at the University of Alabama in 1999 and specializes in employment-related and business matters.
