Horrible experience

Totally disrespectful. Doesn’t do anything but forward emails. Only in it for the money. Speaks to you like your not even his client. Tries to tell you your crazy and that you need medication and to find a new attorney if you don’t like the way he does thing. Pretty easy to say when you get a non-ref...undable retainer LOL. Your a joke Barry!

Took my money and never did his job

I paid him a large amount of money just to have him side with my ex and tell me I'm a disgrace and failure as a parent. He didn't fight for anything I requested he did what he wanted and still had the nerve to send me a bill saying I still owed him a large amount of money. He's definitely just a croo...k

Excellent attorney

I have retained Barry for divorce, custody and everything else thrown at me. His office is professional, approachable and friendly, they are very consistent with returning calls/emails. Attorney Cohen will fight for you as well as give you reality and jumps head in first, which is exactly what I need.... I am very happy with retaining him to represent me in all matters that I have and currently am facing. I highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for an attorney who fights and does the right thing.

poor choice

Barry seemed fine until our day of custody court. He asked about our twins which we don't have. He said he forgot to inform me of a major decision I needed to make right before stepping foot into court. When I tried to inquire what the repercussions of the decision could be, he yelled at me and told ...me to stop being so dramatic. The decision cost me greatly for years after.

Highly Recommended

From the first time we met I found Attorney Cohen to be professional, knowledgeable and thorough wile handling my divorce. In addition to handling the matter on hand, he also gave me good advise and direction on other issues as well. Communication, regarding meetings and time related issues were alwa...ys done in a timely fashion. I would not hesitate to use Attorney Cohen for any legal questions. If not in his field I'm sure he would and could steer me in the right direction. Again highly recommended.
