Mr. Cohen gave us excellent insight on how to handle our parent plus school loan .We are so happy to finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. He helped take a major off our shoulders. Thank-you Josh Cohen

Prompt, friendly, and most of all smart

I had an issue with a student lender. I reached out to Josh and it quickly became clear I could rely on his advice because of his knowledge of the players in the student loan industry, and especially of the particular lender I was dealing with. It turned out I didn't need to hire Josh because he re...commended I take no action, but if he had recommended I take action I wouldn't have hesitated to hire him.

Student Loan Assistance

Talking with Josh was helpful to get a sense of how far to go with regard to problems I have been experiencing with my loans and I look forward to continuing to work with him on this.

Student Loan Consolidation Error Consultation

After review of my situation, Josh went outside the box to try and help me unravel my Parent Plus loans from my own student loans. I didn't know how few options I had until Josh discussed them with me.

Sober, Authoritative Advice from a Legal Professional Who Knows What He's Talking About

I found Joshua through an online search for loan forgiveness lawyers. I have $170,000 in total outstanding student loan debt and it's been a real source of stress and anxiety in my life. I specifically wanted to know how much of my income I could expect to outlay on incoming federal student loan paym...ents during my first year filing taxes with a decent yearly salary. I wanted to know what my options were and what I could expect. After sending Joshua all of my National Student Loan Data we arranged to have a consultation the following week. He got a brief rundown of my current income and was able to quickly come back to me with a payment figure and plan of action that was way less frightening than I thought it would be. He was really clear about what could and couldn't be done in terms of negotiating with loan providers and gave really thorough advice on what to consider - even for the plan that worked best for me. I might have wanted to know how he arrived at that number and whether or not I could have gotten an even more amenable figure. In a perfect world, I also would have better details from my conversations with my private student loan providers and would have wanted a plan of action on how to negotiate with them as well - but I understood that my options were limited when it came to private loan providers. In the end though, all of that is splitting very fine hairs when considering that I came away from our conversation with a much better understanding of what to expect and that I wouldn't have to give my first-born child to Sallie Mae - a sense of peace I wouldn't have had were it not for Joshua's counsel. He was even gracious enough to let me know to reach out to him in case things changed with my marital status to see if I could get the number re-adjusted in that case. And I had never had someone run through the 25-year timeline for Public Loan forgiveness with me before either. All in all, he was a very knowledgeable and reassuring legal professional for a process that completely eludes me. I couldn't recommend him enough to anyone interested in his services.
