Hired Attorney

My anxiety was really running wild when I got the speediest ticket of my life. I searched and found many capable lawyers to help with my issue but the reviews and praises of Lawyer Zachary A. Cohen’s law office was top-notch, and a step above the rest and I trusted in all of the lengthy research that I did on his office even down to his staff and the client service provided. I was absolutely grateful for his help and the ease and ‘woo, that’s a load off of my back’ feeling that I got from the great negotiated settlement he was able to make! I’ve had no issues the entire length of hiring him and his wonderful staff members! After I left his office from paying my dues I took 5 cards with me. I’ll be recommending you to anyone I know in need of services you provide! P.S. he has an amazing office full of great pictures to gaze at, comfortable furniture, MAINTAINS COVID PROTOCOLs with ‘front of office’ safety shields, and an elevator up to his office instead of having to take stairs. A+++!

Found working with this law office to be turn-key. IN particular, support team was knowledgeable and responsive, managing our scenario with good communication and timeliness. Certainly was worth the fee paid to have someone with expertise manage the process for us.

Hired Attorney

I got a speeding ticket in Union County, I live about 2.5 hours away. I thought the 500.00 initial fee was a little high but all things considered probably worth it for me and my situation. Mr. Cohen was able to get my ticket reduced and reckless driving dismissed (the reckless was due to speed not my driving skills) with the additional court cost and fine total was 766.00 without having to appear in court and no points on my record and no insurance rate hike! I only gave a 4 star because after I mailed my payment for fine and cost to the attorney office I did not receive a confirmation that they received payment. I had to reach out and make sure they received it. All things considered I would recommend their services.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
