Debit and Bankrupcy

Mr. Cohen was very responsive and acted swiftly. Easy guy to communicate with. Also very affirmative to the other side, for you, in a manner or "language" they speak! Great lawyer! %100

Easy as pie

I recently moved to the state, and became a resident. When searching for an attorney I came across Joel Cohen and gave a call. He answered right away and even before he became my lawyer gave me excellent advice. He started right away on my file and sent me information within a night. He made sure to ...verified everything multiple time before submitting it. The only wait was the court date. Court went fast and accurate and everything complete within hours. Thanks again for everything Joel .

Not knowledgeable and Money Driven

He doesn't know anything about Family law and simply made my case feel like it was about money and that was all. Never finished final paperwork and my case after 2 years is still pending. Does not return emails or phone calls. Pretends to be a man of God while you are in the office and quickly tur...ns into another person outside of his office. Makes promises about what he is going to do then doesn't do anything like what he said. I have worked with other Attorneys and unfortunately they have moved on to other forms of law but they never treated me like Mr. Cohen did!
