Why Choose Our Law Firm?

Imagine negotiating with a boss when you have actually held your boss’s position or discussing pricing with a building contractor after you have worked as a building contractor. In both instances, you’d have an edge, because you’d have all the information the other side has.

When you hire an experienced attorney from The Law Office of Corey I. Cohen & Associates, you optimize your chance for a favorable outcome because our firm’s founder, Mr. Cohen, is a former prosecutor. Have you been accused of robbery, domestic violence, theft or another crime? Our attorneys have handled hundreds of criminal cases as a prosecutor, criminal defense attorney and public defender. We know precisely how prosecutors will likely work to prove your guilt, and we can begin to counter their tactics before they even get started preparing them.
