Unsolicited, a public defender told me that David Cohen is “among the best defense attorneys in New York.” Distraught and skeptical, I called his firm, Cohen Forman Barone, and spoke with him. During that phone call, David gave me what I needed most—hope. Walking through the courthouse, I witnesse...d what is well-known: David Cohen is renowned. Employees, colleagues, and friends greeted him as we made our way to the courtroom. Once inside, David commanded the respect of the judge and the prosecutor. Standing by my side was my champion, metaphorical sword and shield in hand. My case was intricate, yet David recognized its disparates and crafted a cohesive defense. But my cause wasn’t won by legal skill alone. Indispensable to that defense was a singular fact: David understands people. His rapport with the opposition was victory's sine qua non. I owe my freedom to David Cohen. Why entrust your future to anyone else?

Words can’t express my gratitude to David Cohen. He is the consummate professional, a lawyer of distinction. He represented my husband at a very low point in his life. He carefully advised us, and we had complete trust in his ability as he guided us through a long journey. David was always honest wit...h us, answered our calls, and has a full knowledge of the law. He is a caring, compassionate man. I have great respect for David Cohen and thank him for fighting for my spouse and bringing about an excellent resolution. My whole family thanks you, David.
