Extremely Knowledgeable and Excellent Communication

Mr. Cohen knows everything there is to know about the complicated mess that is our student loan system. He communicates effectively and efficiently, so that you understand what your options are specific to your situation. He pays close attention and advises based upon your particular circumstances, h...e doesn’t simply regurgitate what is on various websites (and much of that information is wrong or so complicated as to be incomprehensible). Mr. Cohen is very respectful and professional. If you feel embarrassed about your student loan issues, don’t worry. You will not get any judgment from Mr. Cohen, only wise counsel. My situation is complicated, but Mr. Cohen is so skilled that in 30 minutes he addressed all my questions and concerns. I have a lot of experience with lawyers (my field of work and a hideous multi-year divorce) and I have never encountered an attorney who communicates so well and so efficiently. His fee is extremely reasonable and well worth it to navigate the student loan minefield.

Best $200.00 I've ever spent!

Atty Cohen was concise, clear, and thorough. We could not navigate all the complexities of our Parent Plus loan. We also were suspect of making any changes to it or falling into a trap/scam of some sort. Atty Cohen in a half hours time, patiently explained our options. He asked our permission to ...tape the phone call. We agreed and he sent us the recording in his follow-up email...brilliant business move . We are in the process of consolidation and seemingly a very reasonable payment plan. I recommend him highly.

I feel so much better after consulting with Mr. Cohen

I was nervous and anxious about my financial situation, but Mr. Cohen gave me peace of mind. He answered all of my questions (and many more that I didn't think to ask) in a way that was clear and compassionate. By the end of the meeting, I had a plan of action and I felt completely relieved about my ...future.

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!
