Strong Advocate

Mr. Cohen was very knowledgeable and gave us insight into how we could resolve our daughter-in-law's student loan crisis. She was in default and she was getting calls from a deft collector. We now have a plan that will help my son and his wife move forward with their lives. We definitely could not h...ave done this without his help and expertise.

Amazing

I was very hesitant at first because I only had online access., but this attorney is the real deal. This attorney is really a student loan expert. He gets straight to the point and offers options for your debt that you could not even imagined before calling him. Another thing I think is outstanding ...is he does not take your money and run. The communication line was always open with him. He is very understanding and supportive (no matter how unorganized you are -LOL). He doesn't judge and is there to help people with student loan debt. To be honest, I had talked to a couple of other SL lawyers about my debt and they were uninformed and only after the money. I highly recommend Josh.

A very helpful, reassuring, nonjudgemental and organized consultation

I recently had a 30 minute phone consultation with Attorney Cohen related to student loan debt management. My situation was somewhat complex and Attorney Cohen was able, in an efficient and concise way, to explore multiple possible options. In my case, he gave me several action steps to take (that ...I can do myself without the need to retain him) and provided all of the paperwork that I need with very clear instructions. I highly recommend Attorney Cohen. He knows his stuff and can provide reassurance and clear direction in otherwise often very stressful and confusing circumstances.

An Expert Is An Expert

I found Attorney Cohen to be highly competent and experienced with a strong motivating intention to represent his client's best interest. The anatomy of the experience was as follows: 1. Assessment He conducts a financial assessment based on loan debt, as well as a personal assessment by asking di...rect questions and listening to you. He then understands your thought process and financial goals and fitness/ability. 2. Customized Plan He develops a customized, holistic plan that addresses each component of your overall loan burden. This plan takes into account short term and long term financial debt demands as well as the client's financial status and goals. He may offer several options to consider, and as an expert, he does let you know which way he may approach the situation and why. He preserves a sense of autonomy for the client by doing this, as well as providing valuable education. 3. Education Not all who are technically proficient are excellent teachers. Attorney Cohen is truly an educator, however, and I feel this is what makes him exceptional. After speaking to him, I had a much more intuitive understanding of the relevant repayment options that I could utilize now and in the future. The difference between consulting with an attorney and speaking to loan counselors or specialists is the attorney's ability to break down complex, dynamic situations and rebuild them in the most fiscally responsible way for the client that is also legally sound. It is not enough to have knowledge of student loans, one must know how to apply it. He may also provide some legal counsel which a non-legal expert simply would not know, which could be invaluable depending on your situation. Ultimately, I left the consultation feeling confident and in control of my financial health. I am grateful for Attorney Cohen’s truly expert service.

Nickersmom

I had a consult with Mr. Cohen about a student loan issue that has been hanging over my head for the last 20 years. I was the victim of identity theft and my loans went into default. Mr. Cohen was informative and gave me several avenues to choose from as to how to resolve my issue. He was also kin...d, professional and made me feel at ease. I am hiring him to resolve my issue for me, and I found his fees to be more than reasonable. I have some peace of mind after 20 years of arguing with collection agencies and being worried about intercepts and garnishments. I cannot recommend Mr. Cohen highly enough.
