Biography
Whether in the courtroom or the community, Stewart L. Cohen has worked relentlessly as an advocate on behalf of his clients for over thirty years. Mr. Cohen is a Shareholder at Cohen, Placitella, Roth P.C. , focusing his practice on complex civil litigation, including medical malpractice, products liability, workplace accidents and class actions.
