Professional Honest Lawyer

Ivan Cohen was a great lawyer to work with. He was honest and had integrity at all times. He was able to retrieve funds that were owed me from an unscrupulous business partner. He was also very responsive when I had any questions. I highly recommend his services as an attorney.

Happy with Ivan

I initially just used Ivan's online-initiated consultation for some advice about my landlord who was abusing their right of entry into my apartment. He was very helpful in spelling out what my options were based on the information I gave him. I was so pleased with this consultation that I hired him t...o help me dispute my intrusive landlord's entries. I really appreciated that he was honest about my options, and did not try to persuade me to go with the option that would result in him getting more money out of my pocket! I was taken aback by his candor. He explained that he is simply looking to run a superior practice and receives referrals from his clients. He is not looking to suck out every penny he can from his clients. Each time we spoke, he did not hang up the phone until he was confident that I fully understood my options. I also liked that every time I contacted him he responded very quickly. Thanks Ivan!

In regards to debt collection

Ivan P Cohen responds back to you in a prompt and timely manner. He is honest, meaning he just gets right to the point (w/out delay of time) and is very good and explaining what your legal rights are. My consultation with Ivan had to deal with a personal matter of someone who owes me money. I ...can say with confidence that if I needed to take the matter further (i.e. such as going to court) that Ivan would be a good candidate for assisting me with my situation, proven that through the consultation, that he is personable and has exceptional customer service.

TO ALL YOU INTELLIGENT PEOPLE THAT READ REVIEWS BEFORE THEY HIRE SOMEONE: This review is to inform you of my personal and professional experience with Mr. Ivan P. Cohen, Esq. Ivan is an attorney originally from South Africa who has been practicing Law in the United States for over twenty (20) years.... Ivan is a charming, intelligent, respectable and very competent litigator who has advocated zealously for his clients since 1994. Ivan maintains a strong sense of ethics and a devotion to character traits that are in desperate need within the legal community. I believe Ivan's steadfast passion for the law, and his clients, coupled with his long-time developed skill-set as a law practitioner makes Ivan P. Cohen an asset to the legal community. I confidently recommend Ivan as an attorney, without hesitation. p.s. I understand that it is impossible to please everyone, and for whatever reason individuals may find themselves in disagreement with their attorney. I caution you -- do not let someone else's disagreements or bad experience dictate or deter you from contacting Mr. Cohen. Ivan P. Cohen is an exceptional attorney whose experience and knowledge will shine-though once you have spoken with him about your concern. "The only source of knowledge is experience." -- Albert Einstein I hope this review has helped you. Sincerely, Deforest
