Law Office Of Cohen & Jaffe LLP — Local services in Town of North Hempstead

A person driving an 18 wheeler tractor trailer rear ended my car. From this accident I had a severe concussion, along with neck & back injuries. I called this law firm to represent me because I wasn't able to even think straight. Mr. Stephen Tiger was assigned to my case. He and his paralegal, Carola Sanchez, helped me get the proper medical attention I desperately needed. They made sure that my auto insurance company & place of work gave me the financial & medical benefits that I was entitled to. Mr. Tiger was efficient, knowledgeable and sympathetic to my needs while being strong & professional where I felt he had my back. Carola Sanchez was a terrific paralegal & she made me comfortable with all aspects given that I was having a difficult time from the concussion. She was understanding, patient & kind, while having outstanding professionalism. I appreciated her very much.

When it came time that I made the decision to file an actual lawsuit. Mr. Tiger explained it all to me and took action in a timely manner. I was so happy to hear that everytime I had a forced IME from the defendant's, he sent a 'watchdog' person to take notes to meet me at the appointments so I felt much more safe & uncomfortable & the results would be more truthful. When it came time for my deposition. Mr. Tiger was great because he stood up strongly against the other attorney's questioning that was not appropriate because a judge already ruled on the accident! When my case came down trying to agree on a settlement & the defendants attys were not cooperative, Mr. Tiger fought for what I needed. I settled and it all came to an acceptable agreement by me. Anyone that needs an injury attorney, I recommend calling Cohen & Jaffe's firm. They are there to represent...

In 2014 I slipped and fell on a just washed floor in Puerto Rico. I suffered a broken hip and had a series of surgeries ultimately resulting in a hip replacement. In order to receive compensation for my costs and damages, I needed to bring suit against the hotel. I had no experience in this type of proceeding. After doing some internet research I contacted Rich Jaffe who took my call immediately. After a face to face meeting in which Rich explained what to expect and some of the complexities of my case, I chose Cohen and Jaffe to represent me.

The suit took 2 years to be resolved. During this time I was always able to call or visit the office to discuss the status of my case. As we approached the time for trial, Seni Popat was assigned to my case. I was extremely pleased with the representation he provided. He was particularly thorough in preparing for trial - documenting my damages, visiting the scene of the accident, arguing against a change of venue, and lining up expert testimony. I always felt our side was better prepared than the attorneys for the hotel and insurance company.

Ultimately my case was settled after a mediation with a federal judge. Monetary compensation cannot adequately make up for the pain, physical restrictions and early retirement caused by my injury, nevertheless, given the parameters for settlements in these matters, I feel that I received a very fair settlement and I feel that the efforts of the firm of Cohen and Jaffe, especially Seni Popat, were instrumental in my receiving the amount of compensation I received. I would highly recommend this firm to others without any...

I have absolutely nothing but the up most respect & praise about this firm. Absolutely everyone there is so caring, empathetic, understanding & patient. From the front desk Claudia, to my paralegal Cheryl who I have to say without her I'd probably be more of a mess. She's has this rare genuine aura that seemed to go almost in extinction & tone of a angel (not even exaggerating) & I can't thank her enough for helping me get through this along with Mr. Jaffe who spoke with me personally when I called up distraught about a doctors' mess up & how it was making things in my life worst. Being I'm a hairstylist & the harsh truth: clientele doesn't stick around forever. His words first words "Maybe you can cut my hair" was what broke my heartache & made me chuckle which was what I needed after what I heard. Following that his next were "Ariel, tell me what I can do to help or make this better" was like a blanket that instantly made me feel human after feeling like a chart # to a doctor. Being this was my first accident, I didn't know who to call, what to do etc. However after doing online research I came across this firm & im just so so happy with the results of everyone. I can't thank my lawyer, Caitlin, for this as well enough. This whole firm left their mark on me that will travel with me as long as I live. If anyone I know or God forbid I ever need any help I will for a fact recommend & come back without any hesitation.

If the firm or someone from there happened to read this. You're all so amazing & from the bottom of my...
