Even though my case took over a year to come to completion, I had a very positive experience working with Cohen & Cohen. Ella, the paralegal handling my case, was absolutely wonderful throughout. She kept me informed every step of the way, clearly explaining why negotiations with the insurance companies were taking time. Her communication was always prompt and professional she responded quickly to all my emails and phone calls, which really helped ease my concerns. I truly appreciate her dedication and support throughout the process.

I am very satisfied with the services provided by Cohen and Cohen. They were able to settle my case within less than a year and settled a fair amount in which I was expecting. They communicated very well throughout the process as well as made sure all boxes were checked off to ensure i received the best care and communication. I will recommend the services to anyone in these situations. Riley and Brittney were certainly very helpful during the process.
