Richard Michael Cohen

Rich Cohen was our lawyer regarding estate issues. At first, I thought he knew what he was doing. However, as the case progressed, motions were not filed in a timely manner and we were charged hourly rates for legal work that was not completed or followed through with the court. He also failed to ...send our family copies of court filings, yet we were charged. We ended up hiring another attorney who was way more familiar with the law. I do not recommend him as he does not follow through yet he runs up your bill. Our issues were never resolved by Mr. Cohen and I cannot recommend him for any type of estate work as it ended up being a very costly mistake for our family by hiring Richard Cohen.

Mr. Cohen handled my family legal dispute that involved a will, and many assets and was able to retrieve and/or receive a judgment on ALL assets that had been stolen and commingled or misappropriated. He was also able to quickly have the executrix of the estate removed from any authoritative positio...n so that further damage could not be done. It was a long rigorous process that ended with trial and a large judgment in my favor however, there were also many other victories along the way. Mr. Cohen went above and beyond with my case, picking me up when I didn't have a ride, dealing with my less than respectful family, and much more. I am now happy that I can call him a friend. If you are looking for a smart lawyer who is willing to go the extra mile, and implement creative tactics to help you reach your end game, I would recommend Mr. Cohen to anyone.

Richard took care of all the details of my mother's estate in order to qualify her for Medicaid and seamless entry into a much needed nursing facility. We had the misfortune of my father's death while documents were being prepared that required a number of re-filings that Richard took care of without... charging more. He handled my grief with compassion and care and we appreciated his calming personalty during this period. His attention to critical details allowed me to keep my parents assets without it all going to the nursing facility.

I hired Richard after another attorney failed to explain the process of assisted living and dealing with the requirements of social services and social security. Richard clearly explained the process of dealing with these agencies. He accompanied me to social services for both my parents and even tho...ugh the paperwork was crazy he helped every step of the way. His assistant Rhonda was a very big help as well. With Richard's help everything went well. I would recommend Richard to friends and family going through the process of placing a parent in assisted living.
