Mr. Cohen goes above and beyond

Thank you very much for all your help and efforts to make this all possible. Everything has fallen into place as a result of you acting on this so promptly and efficiently. Thank you for helping to put my mind at rest, as I have been consumed with worry for over a year. Confirmation of tax receipts r...eceived. That was a glorious sight to see and a huge relief. Once again I would like to thank you for your time and energy that you put forth to make this all possible. If not for your quick action, knowledge and expertise, this situation could have been a whole other scenario. I would just like to reiterate how fortunate I feel to have been introduced to you. Mr. Cohen you have my utmost gratitude.

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.
