With extensive experience as a business litigator, Mr. Cogan integrates his broad knowledge of business law, trial strategies, and sophisticated law and motion practice into the often complex intricacies of the various issues that present themselves in the process of resolving family law disputes.

As a partner (including managing partner) with the Los Angeles law firm of Lindahl, Schnabel, Kardassakis & Beck, Mr. Cogan worked in various areas of law including cases involving complex business disputes, professional liability, defamation, wrongful death, and product liability.

Born in Israel, Mr. Cogan migrated to the United States in 1967, only a few days after that country's Six-Day War.

Admitted to practice law by the State Bar of California in 1987, Mr. Cogan was also admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court Central District as well as the U.S. District Court Northern District of California that same year. In 1995, he was admitted to the U.S. District Court Southern District of California, and in 1990 was admitted to practice in the U.S. Court of Appeals 9th Circuit.

Active in the firm's Adopt-A-Center program, Mr. Cogan is also a founder, board member and executive committee member of the Beverly Hills Basketball League.
