I had a very positive experience working with Avi on my personal injury case. I was understandably very anxious throughout the process and probably asked more questions than most clients, but Avi and Christina was always patient, honest, and professional with me. He was very straightforward about what to expect and made me feel comfortable during a stressful situation. I really appreciated his honesty, responsiveness, and the genuine way he handled my case. I’m very grateful for everything he and his team did for me and would highly recommend him!

Avi and the team helped me through the entire legal process when I was injured in an accident.

10/10 will always recommend. Avi and Christina are two of the greatest people I've ever met. Aside from them as individual people, they're an amazing team. I went to Avi for a divorce consultation and I never felt so comfortable and heard. He is so calm and patient it is contagious. The entire process was a very stressful one but Avi helped make every turn feel effortless. He guided me through everything I needed to do and even reminded me when I needed to take a step back and just breath. My divorce is finally finalized and if I got a second chance to choose another lawyer I'd pick Avi every time. If you're on the fence about who to go with just do a consultation with Avi and see for yourself. He is the best there is.

It took me a while to write this review, simply because I didn’t think that I would be able to accurately describe the service received from Avi and his team. They held my hand for over four years and when I considered just throwing in the towel, Avi was there to encourage me along. He went above and beyond, guiding and directing me to get any assistance he may not be able to provide. I wholeheartedly recommend the services of Avi and his team.

My experience with Avi's law firm for 2 separate cases has been exceptional and is the reason I returned to him for support a 2nd time.

I had the privilege of working with Christina as well as Avi as my lawyer during such a difficult time in my life. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication were truly remarkable. Christina, as his assistant gave me the same amount of effort and empathy towards my situation as the lawyer. Throughout the process, they provided me with clear guidance, supported me emotionally, and fought tirelessly for my best interests. Thanks to their efforts, I achieved a fair and favorable outcome. I highly recommend this lawyer to anyone in need of compassionate and effective legal representation during challenging times.

My experience with A. Cohen Law Firm has been nothing short of amazing! Mr. Avi Cohen met me with tears in my eyes as I began my divorce and did everything in his power to guide me seamlessly through this difficult process. Avi is extremely knowledgeable and was great at explaining things to me when I felt lost or confused. He never made me feel as if I were a burden. I never felt judged or as if I was just another one of his clients. Avi was direct and “hard-hitting” when it came to dealing with my adversary and the opposing counsel while always remaining professional and exuding a sense of superiority, which I absolutely adored. While the whole team at A. Cohen Law was great, no one quite compares to Christina! Christina is an absolute god send! Christina is efficient, knowledgeable and truly skilled at her profession. Christina was attentive, responded quickly even when I had a silly little question and always kept me on task when it came to anything case related. Christina treated me with such patience and grace. I appreciate her more than she’ll ever know. I highly recommend A. Cohen Law! They fought for me when I didn’t know how to fight for myself. I am so grateful for Avi and Christina. While I’m glad to finally be done with my case, I can honestly say that I will miss working with them.

I got lucky to work with Avi @ A Cohen law firm. Other lawyers won’t treat you with as much care attention and respect. My previous lawyer didn’t even have the time to get back to me, but avi is always accessible via email, sometimes even after hours , so he won’t leave you hanging and you won’t feel alone. Making that switch to Avis team was the right move by a long shot. VERY PERSONABLE, no matter which walk of life you come from. During an extra distressful time, avi found the way to bring calmness and ease, supported by facts and calculated assumptions. He’s smart and he thinks ahead for you. He feels for you, fights for you - all i can really ask for. Thank you again to the A cohen law firm team, his assistant Christina is SUPER helpful also. She will make you feel important and SHE HAS AN AMAZING ATTITUDE.

He is a true professional, honest, kind and trustworthy. His team was outstanding. Truly supportive and understanding. Having Avi by my side I always felt stress free. Trust me, if you have Mr. Avi Cohen represent you for any legal matters you will be adding more to this deserving review! Sincerely, Donna Horner

I would like to take the time to say Thank You to Avi Cohen and his team. He represented me on my divorce. I had gone through a previous law firm who in 2 years did nothing for my case. After doing some research I have decided to go with Avi, wish I found him on my first go around. When I found Avi I was hopeless. However Avi and his team turned everything around for me. Avi and his team were always available , anytime of day and explained everything thoroughly. I am grateful for him and his team to finally bring this to an end. I highly recommend Avi Cohen to represent you in your matters. Forever thankful, as he knows my ex was not the easiest to deal with. Thank you for everything! I appreciate you.

I was stuck in a contentious divorce and had nearly lost hope with the trajectory of my case. I initially hired a different lawyer, who clearly had no interest in his clients unless their case seemed profitable. When I found Avi Cohen everything changed. Avi is an incredible lawyer and a true professional. He was on top on my case from the very beginning, always in contact, replying to my emails within minutes. In the lowest point of my life he cared for my case, for myself as a person, and for the wellbeing of my children. We involved a children's attorney, as he advised, and it made all the difference. He is also very understanding and takes one's financial standing into consideration. I never felt any financial pressure with him and I felt he treated me with great dignity. He advocated for myself and for my children while maintaining a positive attitude and respect for everyone involved. In the end, Avi has a great skill for finding the best solution given your unique circumstances and is unafraid to offer his level-headed honest advice (he also has a great sense of humor). The only thing I would have done differently in this divorce was to ditch my previous lawyer altogether and start with Avi sooner.

I have recommended lawyer Avi Cohen to all my friends and family. He is very professional, responsible, reliable and caring.

He took care of my collision case for over 4yrs and was always so positive and attentive to all my difficult requests. I’m forever grateful for all you have done for me. Thank you, I really wish many lawyers would be sincere and have the same passion for their job.

I looked around for a Divorce Attorney and Avi Cohen was highly recommended. I found him to be easy to talk to and he explained my options patiently and clearly. Divorce is never easy but Avi made me feel at ease about my situation. Avi Cohen is well known and liked, he is smart and a fast thinker and is a "shark" in the courtroom.He handled my case as if it were his own. He came to Court prepared, fully engaged and ready to win! Avi Cohen is brilliant and knows a lot concerning financial issues. I am so grateful you were there for me when I needed you the most. Thank You so much....

Mr. Cohen and his paralegal Christina went above and beyond during my family law consultation. Not only did the team ease my nerves with kindness, but they also took the time to patiently answer all of my questions. I never felt rushed, and the thorough explanations left me feeling fully informed and empowered. Highly recommend this law firm expertise and compassionate approach.

After leaving my previous attorney during a critical time, finding an efficient replacement was tough. Avi Cohen was a lifesaver in a dire financial situation. He handled my case with remarkable speed and precision, despite the short preparation time. He quickly grasped my situation's complexities and negotiated effectively on my behalf. His blend of rapid action and attention to detail was key to achieving a positive outcome for me and my kids. Avi's professionalism stood out, especially when stepping into a tense, emotionally charged situation. I didn't need to interact with the opposing side, as he maintained calm and clear communication even when faced with heated tempers and hurled insults. His level-headedness made a stressful situation more manageable, leading to multiple apologies from the other side. I'm deeply grateful to Avi Cohen and the A. Cohen Law Firm team for their exceptional service. Their dedication to clients' interests is clear, and I highly recommend Avi for anyone needing skilled and trustworthy legal representation.

Avi wasn't even my lawyer. He was my ex-wife lawyer. I was very satisfied with the way he mediated the disputes between her and I. Going through a divorce can cause a lot of emotions, anger, resentment, sadness and much more.

I would definitely recommend any friend or family member to Avi if they ever needed a lawyer. Thank you Avi and your team.

My experience with Avi was exceptional. Always responsive, thorough, fair and rational. Divorce/custody can be an ordeal but Avi made it all as easy as possible.

Sometimes you meet people that you know will stay in life forever. Avi is that person. I am a police detective. I am in my 26th year on the job and reading people is what I do for a living.

I would recommend Avi to anyone who needs a divorce attorney, in which I already have. Thank you Avi again.

There I was. I made a decision to leave my wife and my whole world was falling apart. Avi was at once a compassionate voice and the aggressive advocate that made the other side shake. He never bothered me about money, the only thing on his mind were the safety, happiness and healthiness of me and my kids. I don’t have the words by which to thank you, so let me keep it short, thank you!
