Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Cohen is by far, one of the very top personal injury lawyers and one of the best that I have worked with as opposing counsel in personal injury case. In the courtroom and in depositions, he is courteous and professional and has superior knowledge of personal injury. A solid track record, praise from his clients and high respect from other lawyers, along with his years of experience, make him one of the best. I highly endorse him."

"Judson is one of the most competent and thorough attorneys I have ever had the pleasure to work with on a case. His staff is personable and worked well with all my clients. Judson is passionate and detailed about the work he does. All of this means he gets excellent results in his cases, often times without having to go to trial. However, when he needs to, he can try a case and get fabulous results. Overall, I heartily recommend The Cohen Law Offices for any personal injury claims that need an attorney to be involved."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Simply put, Judson is an elite personal injury attorney. Judson's knowledge of the law is vast and practically limitless, and is only matched by his level of diligence for, and professionalism towards, his clients. While some attorneys may get nervous if a case does not settle before trial, Judson excels in the courtroom, leading to impressive results for his clients. This makes Judson not just an attorney, but a trial attorney, which is of critical importance in personal injury cases. Not surprisingly, I am not the only one who has taken notice of Judson's legal skills and excellence. Judson is highly regarded in the legal community, both among the Bar and the bench alike. I, like so many others in the legal community, have the utmost confidence in, and respect for, Judson's immense abilities and wholeheartedly endorse him."

"As an attorney, I know there are hundreds of PI attorneys in Miami to choose from. I chose Judson as my own personal injury lawyer for a recent accident where I was injured by a driver. Judson is a very skilled personal injury trial attorney; but perhaps even as important, he is an excellent negotiator. He is compassionate and caring, knowledgeable, organized, efficient and gets great results for his clients. I can personally & professionally recommend his services to anyone who needs an outstanding Miami personal injury attorney!"

"Dozens of lawyers in Miami and Fort Lauderdale think Judson is the "go to" attorney for personal injury matters-and I agree with them wholeheartedly. Judson is smart, aggressive and a walking encyclopedia of the laws that impact his clients. He's the type of top-tier personal injury litigator to whom you direct your best clients--a "bet the company" litigator who hits hard, and doesn't stop until the other side says, "mercy". He's well-known and highly respected by the Bar and bench alike, which is why when he walks into the courtroom people look up and pay attention to him. (Very few attorneys command that respect at any point in their careers--but Judson gets that kind of respect everyday, both inside and outside of the courtroom.) Over the years I have referred several clients to Judson, and all experienced great results. I have the highest confidence in his abilities, and highly endorse him."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
