5 stars is not enough

Five Stars Are Not Enough! Working with Steve Cohen has been a life-changing experience. From the very beginning, he brought not only unmatched legal expertise but also a level of compassion and dedication that is rare to find. Navigating a child custody case is one of the most emotionally challen...ging journeys any parent can face, but Steve made me feel supported every step of the way. He was always accessible, responsive, and truly took the time to understand the unique dynamics of my situation. What impressed me most was his ability to remain calm and focused, even when things got tense. His strategic thinking, attention to detail, and powerful presence in court gave me a sense of peace and confidence I didn’t think was possible. Thanks to Steve Cohen, not only did I receive a favorable outcome, but I also felt heard, valued, and respected throughout the entire process. He fought for what was right with integrity and heart—and I will forever be grateful for the impact he’s had on my family’s future. If you’re looking for a lawyer who genuinely cares and will go above and beyond to fight for your child’s best interests, look no further. Steve Cohen is simply phenomenal.

Child custody

It was a pleasure to work with Steven Cohen. In this difficult time, his responsiveness and calm nature were extremely helpful to me. It would be a pleasure to recommend him to anyone. My child custody case was handled by him, and his composed demeanor helped me explore my options before the hearing.... Communication with him was never rushed, and emails were returned promptly.

The Best

The Moskowitz Law Firm was there for me through all of my family law needs. Steven Cohen and the rest of the staff from the firm are all professional grade. I was treated well and Steven was always available when I called or needed something. Best part is, he helped me win more than once. Definately... the firm that you want oj your side.

Highly Recommend

We are feeling incredibly fortunate to have had Steve as our attorney to handle the adoption of my son by my second husband. The legal system can be intimidating and overwhelming and Steve helped to make sense of it all in a very calming and supportive manner. He is quick to answer questions / emails... and if he does not know the answer, he finds out. His office and staff is welcoming, kind and helpful. Steve had us prepared to handle whatever came our way and made us feel confident that we would be successful during a very emotional process.
