Rachamin Cohen

I write this with a heavy heart as I dont often post bad reviews - but if you’re considering hiring him please think twice. I had a very disappointing and frustrating experience with Rachamin “Rocky” Cohen. The fee arrangement for “guidance” on personal bankruptcy was presented as $1,750 for five ho...urs per person, later consolidated to $3,000 for both me and my partner. That clearly implied five hours each, not five hours total. After only one 45-minute call for me and one 45 minute call for my partner, I was charged $1,000—far beyond what was fair or agreed upon. When I requested a refund, Cohen initially agreed, but weeks of delays followed. Despite repeated follow-ups, the refund was not processed promptly, and I was later told the balance had “dwindled” to $2,000, which I found deceptive. I never sent any documents for review, and our only discussions were verbal, totaling 45 minutes. Claims to the contrary were false. This all took place during an extremely trying time for me and my partner, while we were in the middle of a business bankruptcy and serious financial struggles, doing our best to get back on our feet. Instead of receiving the professional help we expected, we felt taken advantage of—like we had handed over money to a dishonest entity that only made things worse at a time when we were already down and vulnerable. Only now, after all of this, did I learn that filing a personal bankruptcy in Florida typically costs between $1,000–$4,000. Knowing that, it’s even clearer how badly we were ripped off. The lack of timely communication, shifting explanations, and resistance to honoring a refund created unnecessary stress and wasted time. As a client, I found Cohen’s conduct unprofessional, misleading, and lacking integrity. I would not recommend this attorney based on my experience.

Bankruptcy isn’t an easy decision, but calling Rocky was. Recently when I found myself in a very troubled financial situation left with no foreseeable way out, a close friend recommended Rocky to me as possible solution to my crisis. I was lost and nervous when met Rocky. Right away he was able to ...put my mind to ease and before I knew it, I was on my way to make a new start to my life. It was easy to meet with him and he was always available to answer all my questions. Rocky has an incredible balance between knowledge, professionalism and kindness. Calling him was an easy decision and one of my best!

I consider myself absolutely lucky to have met Mr. Cohen. My house was in foreclosure, I consulted with two law firms, but was uncomfortable as I could only reach their paralegals. A friend recommended I call “Rocky” and I’m glad I did. He explained the process of saving my home through a chapter 13 ...bankruptcy and other options that I had. He was responsive, extremely knowledgeable in this area of law and would NOT back down to my mortgage servicer’s shenanigans. If you are reading this review you probably understand the stress associated with the fear of loosing you’re home. Throughout the process, Mr. Cohen gave me the peace of mind that my legal interests are being represented.

I hired Rocky Cohen to file for bankruptcy, and it was an exceptionally positive experience every step of the way. Rocky is very knowledgeable, he is an excellent communicator, and he is thorough. He is honest and genuine, never making any false or unrealistic promises. He explained everything in de...tails — which really helped prevent stress and gave me a piece of mind, during an otherwise challenging time. He was easy to reach and he consistently answered all my questions. He provided updates all the time/had impeccable follow-up. His work was as punctual as can be; he submitted all the paperwork required for filing for bankruptcy from start to finish in a timely manner. I am utmost grateful for Rocky’s outstanding professionalism, kindness, and for being so personable.
