Cheyanne Cope
Cheyanne Cope, a relentless advocate for her clients, knew at an early age that she wanted to be a plaintiffs lawyer. Her desire to represent injured clients was born out of near tragedy.
As a toddler, a defective display hook at a department store pierced her face and nearly damaged her eye and brain. A good samaritan's actions saved her from a more serious injury.
Since then, she has been focused on helping others who have been hurt by dangerous products and other's negligence.
At Kline & Specter, Cope handles products liability and medical malpractice cases.
She is currently heavily involved in several lawsuits against Panera for injuries caused by their Charged Lemonade energy drink. Those lawsuits have drawn widespread media coverage and led to Panera removing the drink from its menu.
Cope brings a relentless drive to her cases and deep empathy for her clients.
She came to Kline & Specter while still attending Drexel University's Thomas R. Kline School of Law, where she received numerous academic awards, including best student performance in Torts, Patents, Criminal Law and Litigation Drafting.
She was also a member of the school's nationally recognized Trial Team, where she won Best Cross Examination in the Queens County DA Trial Team Competition.
Cope earned her J.D. from Drexel University's Thomas R. Kline School of Law in 2024, where she graduated Cum Laude.
She earned a degree in political science from California State University, Northridge in 2015, graduating Magna Cum Laude.
Cope was a Flint Water Crisis Volunteer, making several trips to Flint, Michigan to help deliver clean water to residents, who were dealing with an unprecedented crisis of lead poisoning in their drinking water.
Prior to joining Kline & Specter as an attorney, she worked as a law clerk while in law school.
