Excellent Traffic Court Services

Thanks to Mr. Cohen’s expertise and dedication, our case was resolved with the best possible outcome! His communication was prompt and consistent, and I always felt like our case was a priority. I highly recommend Mr. Cohen to anyone in need of a skilled and reliable traffic attorney. He truly went a...bove and beyond for me and my son

Traffic Tickets, reckless driving charge

When I was looking for the best attorney to handle my reckless driving charge, which is considered as a criminal offense, I was very lucky to find Mr. Lee Cohen. He is a perfect gentleman and a perfect attorney who really know how to give the best legal advice and how to defend his client in court. A...nd he treated me as if I were one of his best personal friends. And I walked out of the court with a clean record, and I admire Lee Adam Cohen for that.

Outstanding Attorney

Lee Cohen did an outstanding job for me. He was able to negotiate an outcome in a traffic case that was exactly what I was hoping for. I would hire him again and I highly recommend Mr. Cohen. I don't see how anyone could have done a better job.

Felt like I did all the work.

I regret retaining Mr. Cohen as my private attorney! I felt like I did all the work towards my case, like he waited til the last day to try and get a deal with the state attorney. There was no deal and he said it was the best he could do? I guess so, he had all his money! When I would call his office... there was never an answer and a machine to leave a message on only never to be called back! Only one meeting with him just before my court date to find out there wasn't going to be a deal with the state.. My charge was a felony charge that a first time offender should have been able to have reduced to a misdemeanor with an experienced attorney. I had other attorneys tell me that after the fact. I would not recommend Mr. Lee Cohen as private representation at all! Go see Ron Toward in Bartow Fl. He will cost just a little more but you get what you pay for! Don't make the same mistake I did!
