Law Offices Of Stephen M. Cohen

Most unethical lawyer out here. She will move your appointments and court hearings for “non-payment” even if you pay prior to the court dates. Paid this lawyer $12,000 within 5 months, had a court hearing late October, was billed in November even more money. I decide I’ll wait till January 1st to make the payment so my kids can have a Christmas after I just spent thousands and thousands with her firm. Mind you our hearing isn’t till the end of January. Call in January to make a payment and they send another invoice for $400. I’m confused as to we haven’t even had contact other than them spam calling me several times a day trying to get money. Turns out she billed me $400 for her filling to withdraw as my attorney… which by the way is ILLEGAL. I will be reporting to you to the board for your unethical practice. You cannot move people’s appointments for “non-payment” which by the way…. I was paying you guys. You’re the greediest worst lawyer. Waste your money somewhere else. I’m still going through the divorce all that money spent and I never got support or anything completed in my case

I consulted Lauren after getting multiple recommendations to her law office. You’re never in a good situation unfortunately when having to hire a family law attorney, I was scared and in a high conflict situation with my ex over custody. From the beginning Lauren heard me out with my situation and was very realistic with my options and how we could go forward. I appreciated how honest she was and how she tried to save me money in every way. She is extremely kind, professional and passionate about helping her clients. Being in the situation I was in I was so scared and intimidated about everything that was going on. Lauren made sure to give me reassurance, and helped build my confidence to ensure I went into every hearing and mediation prepared and confident. My main goal was to protect and act in the best interest of my daughter and Lauren has helped me do exactly that. Ericka, Laurens paralegal in the office is also so sweet and kind. Anytime I had a question or wanted an update I could call or email and she is always quick to respond. All paperwork was always turned in on time or early. I appreciated all the updates and if there was ever a change Ericka always kept me informed and in the loop. I can’t forget Caroline! If Ericka or Lauren wasn’t available Caroline tried absolutely everything to get me an answer or make sure to take note and rely the message. Although I’ve only spoken to her on the phone she was always so kind and helpful in every way. I recommend this Law Office to anyone needing help in a family law case, they take care of their clients and I have been extremely happy with their work. I can’t thank them enough for all that they’ve done and how much stress they have relieved from my life.

Lauren and this entire law firm will rob you and lie you. I hired Lauren 4 years ago for a separation. She charged me for a legal divorce when I was never legally married. She also kept telling me “my case was going to court” when we never had a court date. She is messy and talks a good game but fails to follow through. I fired her and she still took the rest of my money to “close the case”. She’s an absolute joke. Do not hire these people. Worst experience EVER.

My ex retained an attorney that was well known to be a pain and EXTREMELY hostile to opposing counsel. I interviewed several attorneys that refused to take my case due to opposing counsel. Steve was recommended by one of the attorneys I interviewed. I ended up retaining Steve and ended up with a great settlement. He also gave back the portion of his retainer that he didn't use. Highly recommend retaining Steve in your divorce proceeding.

This is the worst attorney. She doesn’t do anything and I have ended up losing my son because she did not do her job. This lawyer bills you and bills you and then expects to get paid for zero. Everything I hired you for u did not accomplish. You have no business being an attorney as you have dropped the ball over and over. I am filing a formal complaint to the bar for the conduct. Also on the minute order yelling at ur client about ur doctor appointment completely unprofessional Your personal life has nothing to do with what you are hired for and you continuing on and then have the audacity to even ask for a cent. You don’t even deserve a star. You were the biggest mistake and you did not perform ur duty and I do not encourage anyone to use you. You absolutely hit the nail on the head with 5 stars for doing nothing. Your response will not be needed because you failed miserably. You DID NOT FIGHT And we’re worthless ! Save ur money and the rudeness of the staff demanding more and more Shame on u
