I received a very fast and fair settlement.
“It was such a pleasure to be represented by Cohn & Swartzon, P.C. recently. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of honest, knowledgeable, and hard fighting attorneys. After a car accident which involved numerous injuries, I couldn’t handle the stress of dealing with the insurance companies. They completely took over for me. They negotiated with the insurance companies and as a result of their determination, I received a very fast and fair settlement. All during this process, they kept me updated on all the proceedings, always returned my phone calls promptly and answered any questions I had. The entire staff at Cohn & Swartzon, P.C. were always courteous and helpful. Thank you ever so much!”

Cohn & Swartzon fought hard for me
“When I first met with Cohn & Swartzon, they explained to me that I had a difficult case, but because of my severe injuries, they were willing to help. Initially, the insurance did not offer much, but after Cohn & Swartzon fought hard for me in court, I received over a 6 figure settlement and also had my surgery paid for.”
– Deborah V.
