Even though my case took over a year to come to completion, I had a very positive experience working with Cohen & Cohen. Ella, the paralegal handling my case, was absolutely wonderful throughout. She kept me informed every step of the way, clearly explaining why negotiations with the insurance companies were taking time. Her communication was always prompt and professional she responded quickly to all my emails and phone calls, which really helped ease my concerns. I truly appreciate her dedication and support throughout the process.

I was extremely pleased with Adam Leighton's representation of me in my effort to recover for the significant injury I suffered when hit by a car while on my bike. He doggedly pursued the matter and skillfully negotiated a sum for me that was larger than I had anticipated -- without litigation.

Cohen & Cohen are fantastic attorneys. My wife and I were involved in a serious car crash in January 2024. It took us over a year and a halve to get everything settled, but the outcome was well worth the wait. We highly recommend this law firm!

I was in an accident March 2022 and was lucky enough for Mr. Leighton to be referred to me within a few days. I cannot sing this offices praises more. Throughout our 3 years together I felt heard and considered. Mr. Leighton was clear, communicative, and always had time for me. I felt so supported throughout the entirety of the process and was able to trust they all were taking care of this side of things. Everyone from the lawyers Ive met to the front desk staff, kind and just seems like good people. I would refer anyone I know to Cohen and Cohen. Im so glad to be done but also sad they arent a regular part of my life anymore. Thank you again to Mr. Leighton and the entire office staff. I hope you all always have cool pillows and only encounter green lights.

Cohen and Cohen is a Law firm that not only focuses on expert knowledge and execution of the law, but also provides world class customer service that makes you feel understood and valued as a client!
From the very beginning, Jill Stanley took my initial call and ultimately my case. Through multiple phone and video calls, she answered every question expertly and enthusiastically. As I moved through the legal process, I was made aware of every step, the possible options, and then given the space to make an informed decision free of pressure. In my final steps, I was turned over to Adam Leighton who intimately brought conclusion to my case. Adams ability to listen, understand and execute a plan is second to none. He worked tirelessly to get what we believed was an appropriate financial settlement. I am grateful for his time, energy, and knowledge of the law. He truly made this process manageable.
Thank you all for everything you did for me and my family. I could not be more satisfied!

Hire them if you get in a car accident. I was t-boned in March 2023. An airbag went off in my ear. And while I had no broken bones (nothing physically, actually), the other insurance company offered $10k. Settled for 10x that amount. All because of Adam Leighton and his fantastic team's great work on my behalf.

Cohen & Cohen is a first class law firm. They really helped me though a tough time after my card accident. The team especially Riley Kloc answered all my questions, concerns and did a fantastic job in handling my case. If your look for very professional lawyers, Cohen and Cohen is who you should call. You will not be disappointed, I wasnt.

My inquiries related to the nature of insurance, best to carry for auto accident/injury coverages were thoughtfully responded to by Mr. Cohen; with a helpful, recorded vocal explanation to each of my three questions. This unique attention to a prospective client is exceptionally appreciated. I would strongly recommend contacting Cohen & Cohen with any such legal questions and inquiries for service, give their strong presence and reputation in the MD/DC/VA region. Grazie!!

When I was struck by a vehicle as a pedestrian crossing the road and which left me unable to walk for months, my life went from security to uncertainty. Most realms of my life: my job, finances, physical ability, all was up in the air.

I was recommended the Cohen & Cohen Injury Lawyer Group through family friends who had stellar experiences and the same day of contacting them I met Adam Leighton.

This was my first time having to consult legal help, and Adam listened to me and the unique circumstances of my injury as a pedestrian in full. He answered all of my questions throughout every stage of the case and when he sensed I was overwhelmed he even called me personally over the phone, a testament to his personable and empathetic nature.

Adam worked swiftly with my case and at around the time I was cleared to walk again I had the case settled with all parties. Additionally, Adam was vigilant in tracking all hospitals that charged me for healthcare during my treatment, across 3 states and multiple hospital organizations.

I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer in Adam. His confidence is backed up by his performance and he made sure I received everything I was owed to the maximum amount. I did not have to worry about my finances and could focus solely on my health and rehabilitation. Through Adam I was rest assured my future was in good hands. I would recommend Adam and the Cohen & Cohen Personal Injury Lawyer Group to anybody, first time or not in dealing with their injuries. You want them on your team!

I am very satisfied with the services provided by Cohen and Cohen. They were able to settle my case within less than a year and settled a fair amount in which I was expecting. They communicated very well throughout the process as well as made sure all boxes were checked off to ensure i received the best care and communication. I will recommend the services to anyone in these situations. Riley and Brittney were certainly very helpful during the process.
