Matthew Jeremy Cohen

I received a second DUI 9 years after the first due to terrible decision making and judgement. After researching reputable lawyers; Matthew and the offices of Hart J Levin continued to appear with high ratings all over the net so I made the decision to contact him. He immediately set up an appointmen...t with me and guided me on every step of the process. He was patient, and understanding from the start and I felt like I was in good hands. After discussing the possible repercussions, importance of maintaining a good record and stressing at avoiding a third DUI, I was on my way. My case took an entire year to start, so meanwhile I had begun the DMV side of the process with Matthew answering every email and call promptly. I was guided on how to lift the driving restriction immediately and informed me on what to tell them DMV. Even offered to talk to the clerks if any issues arose. Eventually the case began and he and an associate represented me at all times without my appearance. They filed all paperwork and took all steps necessary, relieving me of stress and worry. In the end, they were able to reduce jail time, reduce fines, and I received the lowest penalty for second DUIs within reason. I turned myself into jail when agreed upon and was signed off immediately and went home. They also represented me when it was time to follow up with progress reports, and took the opportunity to request community service in lieu of large fines which was granted. I now owe a much lesser fine and 3 days of community service which is reasonable. I will contact him in the future for expungement or any further help after probation is over. Thank very much Matthew and team for all of help and guidance, and getting me through this nightmare.

So, if you're reading this you are probably coming here under the same crappy circumstances that I did a year ago. You know the story, I was leaving a bar, a lapse in judgment, pulled over for speeding, and off to Jail I went---Arrested on suspicion of a DUI. After I was released from my luxurious ...overnight vacation I started doing my research. Everywhere I turned, Hart J Levin's name and reputation poked up. Specifically that of Mr. Matthew J. Cohen. From the start, Matthew was nothing buy reassuring, but realistic, and professional. He answered all of my questions and quelled my fears. However, he was always straight and realistic with me. He told me the common process in CA for my offense and exactly what my odds were in the situation. At no point did I feel he was selling me or being anything other than 100% honest. Throughout the process, he made himself available whenever I needed it. He always took the time to answer all of my questions and to talk me through the lengthy and turbulent court and DMV dealings. His office handled EVERYTHING. At no time did I need to appear in court or even make a phone call or send a letter. They did it all and kept me abreast of the results and the next steps. During all this, Matthew made sure to manage my expectation and assured I had an optimistic yet realistic view of the path ahead. Well, there he floored me!!! When all was said and done he got my case DROPPED from the courts and DMV!! I walked away with no stain AT ALL on my driving record and merely a strong lesson learned for my troubles and heartache. I cannot recommend this team enough. If you're reading this right now, stop pick up the phone, and ask for Matthew Cohen to handle your case. I am glad I did.
