Howard Cooper Selected to Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly's 2026 Hall of Fame Class
Todd & Weld is proud to announce that Founding Partner Howard M. Cooper has been selected for Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly's 2026 Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame recognizes attorneys who have been practicing law for 30 years or more and have made lasting contributions to the legal profession, the development of the law, and the communities they serve.
For more than four decades, Cooper has built an exceptional reputation as one of Massachusetts' leading trial lawyers, representing clients in high-profile civil, criminal, and regulatory matters in state and federal courts throughout New England and across the country. His practice encompasses complex business litigation, white-collar criminal defense, government investigations, First Amendment and civil rights litigation, professional liability matters, and health law.
Throughout his distinguished career, Cooper has earned widespread recognition for his courtroom advocacy, strategic counsel, and unwavering commitment to achieving outstanding results for his clients. He has successfully handled numerous precedent-setting and nationally significant cases, earning the respect of clients, peers, and the judiciary alike.
In addition to his litigation practice, Cooper has long been committed to mentoring attorneys and advancing the legal profession through his leadership, teaching, and service. His contributions have helped strengthen both the firm and the broader Massachusetts legal community.
Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly's Hall of Fame celebrates attorneys whose careers reflect exceptional professional achievement, leadership, and service. Cooper will be honored as a member of the publication's 2026 Hall of Fame Class at a ceremony later this year.
