Jill Ruth Cohen has your back

When someone you love is accused of something they did not do, you need to hire the best. I found Jill to be straight and honest. She took her time to hear the facts and gave us her assurance that she would make sure that what really happened would come to light. She approached her work with dilig...ent attention to detail, completing tasks in an expeditious manner. Although I hope to never need her expertise in the future, I would recommend her to everyone who needs a great criminal defense attorney.

Great work

After winning my appeal and getting my 27y sentence vacated the state was on a mission to keep me behind bars. Throwing appeal after appeal at me, Jill made sure to keep me in not only good legal standing but also a good headspace with confidence in all her actions. Thankfully Jill was able to put to...gether a bail motion that was un defendable resulting in me bailing out, able to tell the story of great representation

Very Impressive

I’ve never written a review before in my life,but I have to say something about the work that Mrs Cohen did on behalf of my son who was facing very serious charges on a six count indictment and facing decades in prison.She is the definition of thorough, honest and very sharp!She was always available ...and if she couldn’t answer my call at the time she would call me back promptly,even on the weekends.She went very hard for my son,I am extremely grateful., I would definitely highly recommend Mrs Cohen,

The BEST OF THE BEST

I just want to thank Mrs.Cohen for saving my life. In 2020, I was wrongfully charged of murder knowingly + attempted murder and was facing some serious time. My original lawyer wanted me to plea to a 7+ year deal and something just felt off about it. I’m a merchant marine of 5+ years, and I have no p...riors. Not to mention, I was wrongfully charged for something I didn’t do in the first place. As a result, I did my due diligence and came across Jill R. Cohen. Not only did she work with me, she was very understanding of my situation. She worked hard to get me a plea of 1 year probation and I can even continue working as a merchant marine In the process. I cant thank you enough for saving my career and livelihood. I will forever be grateful and you honestly deserve 100 stars, not 5! You saved my life. Thank you so much.

Great Lawyer

Jill Cohen took my case at a way more reasonable price than all other local lawyers I initially reached out to for help. After the court dragged their feet with providing any evidence for my case, her firm filed a 30 day motion to produce lab results. On the 28th day, after still no results, she was ...able to negotiate with prosecutors and get 15 out of 16 charges dismissed! Thank you for your service Jill.
