Dedicated to Helping Those of us Dealing with Complex Student Loan Situations

I hired Josh Cohen several years ago to help me get out of default on my student loans. I had a truly astounding amount of debt, both from my undergraduate and graduate loans. No one ever goes to college or grad school planning to fail in their career and default on their loans, and I am grateful t...hat Josh is compassionate and understanding about how people can get into this predicament. In my case, a lot of trauma, domestic abuse, and complex health issues have led me to where I am. I am so glad that I found Josh, and he helped me consolidate my loans and get out of default about seven years ago. I was even able to get my mother removed from my loans as a co-signer through the consolidation. He helped me choose the best possible servicer, advised me on what kind of income based repayment plan to sign up for, and I continued to hire him every year to make sure my recertification for my IDR plan went smoothly. I decided to reach out to Josh again and had an appointment with him today. With student loan payments beginning again soon, and the fact that I've had some changes in my life, it seemed like a good idea to follow up with him. Once again, he was incredibly helpful and kind, and he gave me so much hope that sooner than I had thought possible I finally might not have this huge burden to carry. I'm so grateful that I've had the ability to hire Josh and dig out of this dark, scary hole with his compassionate help and immense knowledge about the student loan industry!

Student loan problem solver!

Joshua has changed my entire relationship to my student loan problem. Before talking to him, I felt weighed down by student loans that I took out for a school that did not provide me with an education that would allow me to repay the student loans. I had no idea that I had any options, and I was rea...lly depressed about it. After talking to Joshua, the first time I had three or four different wonderful options, and I have pursued each one. Now, instead of feeling hopeless, I am three or five years away from a complete forgiveness. I cannot recommend him enough.

"A very positive experience".

I had a very positive experience with Mr. Cohen this afternoon. He provided me with all the information that I was seeking in regards to my Federal Student Loan and repayment options. He also agreed to assist me with an extremely difficult situation that I've been struggling with for almost 6 months ...now. This was in regards to a loan that I took out about 20 months ago to assist me with my huge Federal Loan debt. I wound up having no choice but to leave my employment, and this put me in Breach of Contract. I will Default on this loan on 7/26/2023. Mr. Cohen agreed to assist me with this very stressful and upsetting situation. Now, I finally have some hope that the results of this situation will not be as damaging as I predicted. Thank you so much Mr. Cohen.

PSLF

Joshua Cohen is extremely knowledgable regarding current student loan issues, including Parent Plus loans. He was very helpful in my 11th hour of need. The 30 minute consultation followed an online review and analysis of my case for PSLF and was well worth the reasonable fee. Mr. Cohen provided me ...with hopeful direction moving forward. I was provided a follow-up email which included a recording of our discussion as well as a necessary contact link. I appreciated his understanding of my complex case and his ability to provide me with guidance. My only regret is that I wished I had connected with him sooner as it would have made my case a much easier. I hope to eventually report a positive outcome!
