Exemplary ability and service

Although a divorce is difficult, working with Mark Cohan could not have been a better experience. He is a skilled attorney, gives concrete, helpful advice and handles each step of the process in a timely manner. What sets him apart are his personal attributes. Mark is honest and clear in his assi...stance. He is also responsive, returning phone calls and emails within 24 hours. As a client, I knew my case was fairly, superbly represented and my concerns were being addressed. I first considered hiring Mark based on the reviews I read. Once I hired him, I knew they were not exaggerated. Initially, I wondered about his youth. I am very happy I did not let it deter me. After the divorce, I hired him on another matter. I believe Mark Cohan is one of the secret treasures of Dallas. As more people realize his value I am sure hiring him will become both more costly and more difficult. I could not recommend anyone more highly.

Posted by Russell Graham | January 13, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Uncontested Divorce

Fair, Honest, Attention to Detail

Not sure even where to start with Mark, typically when I think of lawyers my blood boils, But Mark is not a typical (overpriced, cocky, sleezeball) lawyer Mark is just a down to earth guy that is all about making a reliable, honest, and reputable business for the working man. Mark handled my un-co...ntested divorce in Dallas County. Mark was not the cheapest around but he was by far the best when considering Price, Attention to detail, Experience, and Prompt Professionalism. Some of the go to quick divorce places like (123divorce and cheapdivorce.com) maybe be under 400 dollars, but good luck getting a call back and good luck knowing your lawyer before court day. Mark never once failed to return a call within normal business hours, and on multiple occasions responded to emails late at night. For my Uncontested Divorce with 2 decree changes in the process he only charged $800 dollars and that INCLUDED the filing fees. If you need any legal services and are looking for a Fair and Honest (cant believe i said that about a lawyer) than look no further than Mark Cohan. Thanks Alot Mark!

Painless Experience From a Great Professional

I had an issue with old traffic tickets that had caused a hold to be put onto my driver's license. Mark Cohan took care of the tickets and the hold with a minimal amount of work on my part. He was very explicit with the expectations from my end and kept an open line of communication. Whenever I ha...d questions about paperwork or the status of my case, he promptly answered in a way I could understand. I would highly recommend Mr. Cohan to anyone seeking legal advice. I never felt like I was another client, and he always presented himself as knowledgeable and thorough. If for some reason I should ever need help with a legal issue, I will certainly call Mr. Cohan first.

Great attorney with unmatched attention to detail

After a client made some questionable revisions to my standard contract, I thought I needed a lawyer. I asked around and my friends recommended Mark Cohan. I was very impressed by his knowledge and thoroughness as he went through the lengthy contract and client revisions with a fine-tooth comb, expla...ining every detail in laymen's terms along the way. He made the necessary changes to protect our business and did it for a very reasonable rate. I went to Mark a second time after someone close to me passed away. He helped us understand what needed to be done with her estate, what we could expect, and helped us with all the legal details regarding transfer of title and probate. If I ever need a lawyer again, I'm coming to Mark.

Recommendation for Mark Cohan, Attorney & Counselor

I have been in the market to get a will drawn up for some time, especially after the death of my uncle last year resulted in a messy estate with no will, and as a result my family was left to deal with his left-over bills and burial costs with no recourse besides their own funds. Although Mark is not... located in Austin, he was recommended to me by a friend and after a short email correspondence made it clear that not only would our locations not be an issue, but I would be able to reduce costs in some ways since most of our interaction would be through email. The process of creating the will was much easier than I imagined, and Mark was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. Additionally, he went out of his to make sure that my will planned for any likely future events, such as marriage or children, so that it would be a document that I would not have to get modified or replaced for some time. I would most definitely recommend Mark to anyone within the Dallas and Central Texas area if you are in need of legal services. He is a motivated, trustworthy, and diligent attorney, and I would not hesitate to call on him again when I am in need of legal advice or counsel.
