Mr Peter Cohen worked for our mother’s probate after her passing with dedication and professionalism, going above and beyond. He put his time to it, without overcharging like other lawyers do, making the whole case more human and you can trust and depend on him and his team to deliver superb results. Great human being and lawyer, I wholeheartedly recommend Peter and wouldn't look anywhere else for legal help.

Hired Attorney Peter A. Cohen

Justice is finally served! I am beyond grateful for the exceptional work Peter did in handling my probate case for my beloved father, who suffered from dementia. Finding someone I can truly trust was crucial. I met with many other lawyers who seemed focused only on making money, rather than genuinely caring about my case. From the start, Peter demonstrated a deep knowledge of probate law with true compassion and professionalism. Thanks to his clear guidance and consistent communication, the entire process was smoother than I ever could have anticipated. Peter took the time to explain every step, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed along the way. In the end, he won my case, bringing much needed peace and closure to my family. I highly recommend Peter to anyone in need of a skilled and trustworthy probate attorney. He is truly number one!

Peter is a fantastic attorney and one that I would recommend to anyone who needs assistance with an estate case or elder law case! He is quick to respond, which I appreciate, and he is always willing to explain whatever is necessary to make me comfortable with my decisions. If you need an estate attorney or an attorney for an elder law case, he is the one you want! I cannot say enough about Peter and his professionalism, or his knowledge of the information required for these types of cases!

Hired Attorney Peter A. Cohen

I had a crucial distressful situation with banking that I had no other recourse but to obtain legal representation. Before hiring Mr. Cohen, I felt totally discouraged, demoralized with no hope in solving this crisis. Mr. Cohen sought out the best conciliation to exclude a long dragged-out court proceeding. I chose attorney Mr. Peter A Cohen because of his long professionalism in handling fine details and arguing the validity of proofs in winning the outcome of my case. I trusted his experience in listening to his options and coming to a final decision in challenging several issues. It has been a gratifying experience knowing Mr. Cohen, who will do everything to fight for what's right. Thank you again, Mr. Cohen

Mr. Cohen's services were outstanding. He was able to help me with my grandmother's estate. She had Alzheimer's and was taken advantage of by other family members. He won my case and I got every bit of benefit I was entitled to thanks to his knowledge and dedication. I will forever be grateful to Mr. Cohen!

Mr. Cohen was a Court appointed lawyer in my case. I can only say that Mr. Cohen treated me with maximum respect and compassion in a very difficult time, in addition to his great legal expertise. In times where you can't trust many attorneys, I would ONLY recommend Mr. Cohen for legal representation.

I hired Peter Cohen as a lawyer in 2009,due to a litigation about my late fathers State.Dr Cohen was very professional,reliable and knowledgeable.My case lasted 3 years and on those years he did not received any money,only until the end.
I strongly recommend his services,I think he is one of the best in South Florida in the area of Will and Probate and also during 3 years dealing with him I learned he is a family man with religious values.
