Featured Attorney - Matt Copeland

Matt Copeland has graduated high school and he is attending college at Rolla.

He was with our youth court program for 5 years. He served as a defense attorney, prosecuting attorney and a judge.

When asked what he enjoyed most about being in the youth court program he said:" Being able to connect with the community and help people." And Matt did that very well.

His favorite memory is: "My first year a defendant's dad and I got along very well and convinced his son he should join youth court."

As we begin another training program, Matt is the caliber of youth we have and will continue to have serving Independence :Youth Court.
