Cohan Law Firm: Bronx and Brooklyn Injury Work From a Lawyer Who Started as a Federal Clerk and a Labor Department Attorney

By Expert Attorneys

Cohan Law Firm is a New York City injury practice founded in 2016 by managing partner Michael Cohan, who was licensed in New York in 2012 after a path that is unusual for a plaintiff's injury office: a law degree from St. John's University School of Law, a clerkship for a federal judge, and work at the U.S. Department of Labor. The firm serves clients in English and Spanish and represents injured people and their families on a contingency fee.

The docket covers motor vehicle, rideshare, and pedestrian accidents, premises liability, construction accidents, medical malpractice, product liability, catastrophic injury, nursing home neglect, and wrongful death. Truck and motorcycle crash claims sit with that same injury caseload. A construction or rideshare file is not treated as an afterthought to a standard car-accident list; those matters are part of the work the Park Avenue South office was opened to take.

Although the firm is based in Manhattan, its service area is built around the Bronx and Brooklyn and also includes Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island, and Westchester County. The firm's Google rating is 5.0 from 644 reviews.

A client who needs a Spanish-speaking lawyer for a construction-site injury, or a family filing a nursing-home or malpractice claim in the Bronx, is dealing with a practice whose founder came to injury work after a federal clerkship and a Labor Department post, not after a generic plaintiff's-firm associate track. That 2012 admission, 2016 opening, and bilingual contingency practice are the facts that define the office.

Premises-liability and product-liability claims are taken in the same office as a rideshare or pedestrian-accident file. Medical-malpractice and nursing-home neglect cases are also part of the docket, which means a family does not have to find a second firm when the injury happened in a hospital or a care facility rather than on the street.
