no

not good... everything was so so with intake then she seemed to care a little less after they got my money... amber lacks sensitivity and said a couple inappropriate comments to me , unprofessional... instead of working to my benefit felt like she just didn't want to deal with it at all and wanted... the quickest way out... calls were never returned by her or on time , always took FOREVER if ever to be heard... honestly feel like she did not have my best interest at heart , often seem to side with the other side... yeah no thanks , was done with her...

Attorney Cohen was amazing, she was thorough, tough and personable. She is extremely professional and was an amazing advocate for me in a high conflict case.

The best

You can stop searching for Attorneys, Amber Cohen is the real deal. As soon as I entered her office I was impressed with all the awards she had earned, displayed on the walls and on covers of a Lawyers magazine in the waiting room. I knew I found the right attorney for me. I have been divorced f...or 11 years and have been searching for a Divorce Attorney who would represent me and to assist me in obtaining a fair finding in Probate Court. I have been to court over 15 times and had horror show of Lawyers represent me. One told me steal cheat or do what I have to, to get him his retainer fee. Another explained Probate Court is biased towards men. I informed Amber of my past history with divorce Attorneys’ and she was able to explain the Judge’s rulings in detail. I understood why the Judge ruled the way he did, to the others, Amber was god send. The way she presented me to the judge was very professional and right to the point. The Judge looked at me in a different way and he was definitely listening intently to every word Amber spoke. Amber was well beyond being prepared for our pretrial and had facts and figures the Probation Department did not have. The Judge used these facts and figures in his ruling. Thank you Amber!!! The Judge requested for us to work through lunch and resolve our issue. My Ex is not very easy to negotiate with and is the reason why I hire Attorneys. Amber was so patient and very firm with her. I was amazed how strong she was while dealing with my EX. I would not refer the other Attorneys to anyone; I will refer Amber to you because she will be prepared for court and represent you in the best way possible.

Gratefully surprised!!!

I must say that Amber Cohen was randomly assigned to me for a second oui case. I just assumed that I was going to get sub par legal representation. She seems so calm and had a don't worry about it kind of demeanor. DO NOT LET THAT FOOL YOU! I was pleasantly surprised when she got up in front of the... judge and pulled some major legal moves. She went above and beyond, with motions, hired private investigators and her confident knowledgeable delivery of all facts of the case. Even as a court appointed attorney, I couldn't have picked a better, more qualified lawyer. The case got dismissed and she really helped me get on with my life. I would retain her again for any matter she is willing to take. She is a qualified, professional attorney with a pleasant and confident attitude toward every case that comes across her desk and was a pleasure to work with. Thank you Amber Cohen!!!!! Z.S.

A fathers custody of / for his son.

I've been working with Amber Cohen for about a year now. Prior to Amber I had two other attorneys that I was totally dissatisfied with their outlook and input of me having custody of my son. Since hiring Amber, I have felt nothing but comfort in knowing she would be thorough and compassionate in h...andling such a sensitive matter. Her patience is a blessing! This is all and just about the well being of my son. There is absolutely nothing typical about this situation and Amber had the abillity to recognize this immediately and made me feel that my son and myself were a prioroty . In closing, I would highly recomend attorney Amber Cohen to any one who cares that a diligent and competent attorney is representing them! Best of luck and a great attorney is necessary! Tony
