Reliable and Trustworthy

In this modern world, we have an abundant amount of resources at our hand. Daniel is one of the best resources you can have for criminal defense. He has handled all of my cases with support and with a quick response, although my outcomes aren't desired, he did his job. He is very adaptable when commu...nicating with him, as he accepts e-mail, text, and phone calls. He was within my legal network, which he acknowledged, allowing me to retain him for multiple cases (criminal defense, traffic). Daniel is very knowledgeable of the law and will defend your rights immediately. You can depend on Mr. Cohen to handle all of your legal needs.

Thank You!

I am writing to thank both you and your entire staff for all that you did for me throughout the past year (October 2015 - October 2016), as you managed a very difficult time in my life; due to all that was riding on the outcome. I can only state unequivocally, that there is no doubt that the outcome ...was clearly due to the professionalism and experience of your firm and the strategies employed by both staff and yourself. I do not believe the outcome would have been the same had i retained services of some other self appointed "expert" in this area of law. Mr. Cohen truly lived up to his reputation and mission. I also would like to state, I will be forever grateful in how your firm and yourself specifically, never made me feel anything other than comfortable in your strategies which included letting me actively participate in the process. Mr. Cohen made me feel as if i could help myself in this matter which was something I needed in order to face my charges pro-actively. I would be remiss to not specifically thank Mr. Cohen for his unwavering support and friendship throughout this process. Mr. Cohen is clearly a credit not just to his firm but to the legal community as a whole. I will recommend Mr. Cohen and his team to anyone that finds themselves needing the Best, once they find themselves accused.

What?!! All speeding tickets don't destroy. Attorney Dan Cohen took care of everything!!

Attorney Dan Cohen took care of everything!!! I didn't have to take off work to plead "not guilty. " I didn't have to spend days making diagrams, taking measurements, etc. that the judge could ignore on his whim. Mr. Cohen took care of it all!! And in the end, I didn't have to pay a thing!!

Amazing work

Dan has been an amazing help to me getting through my DUI. He was upfront with me about my case, explored all options that could have been available to me and in the end was able to get my community service time and IID time reduced from the original lengths. Dan has also been great about working ou...t a payment plan with me, as I was unable to pay the full cost upfront.`Dan has been more helpful than I could have expected. If you need legal representation after a DUI this is the man to see.

BEST LAWYER EVER!

I got a DUI, and I'm 19 so I thought I was screwed. But Dan Cohen got it down to just infractions! I don't know how he did it but he did, and that's all that matter! I would definitely recommend him to anyone who get charged with a DUI!

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.
