Transplanted to Northwest Florida through the United States Air Force in 1964, I have grown my roots in the South. I received my B.S. in Business from Troy State University in 1970, then completed law school at Cumberland School of Law in 1973. I am married and have raised four children who have attended public schools in both Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. After admission to the Florida Bar in 1973, I was enrolled to practice in the United States District Court and Bankruptcy Court in 1974. I served on the Board of Directors of the Escambia-Santa Rosa Bar Association, was a certified Civil and Family Law Mediator. I began my legal career as an Assistant Public Defender representing my clients in the criminal justice system. Most of my career as an attorney however, has been devoted to assisting families and businesses in the private sector. I pride myself in personally responding to your needs, providing you with personal attention and remaining accessible to serve your legal needs. No golf games, no extended vacations. It is you, my client who is the focus of my Pensacola-based law practice.

Mr. Cohen helped us through a confusing and annoying extended-family matter. We had struggled with another attorney, but when Mr. Cohen took over things went very smoothly, and in the end we were very satisfied. He is smart, really knows the in's and out's, and is pleasant to work with.

Mr Cohen handed my bankruptcy case so well I barely had to lift a finger except to sign a few papers. He explained the process to me which gave me the confidence to proceed and it worked out just as he said. The pressure is gone (no calls or letters) what a relief-the man is a miracle worker and I advise anyone with credit card debt to call (or email) Mr Cohen.

Mr Cohen was a blessing because he was willing to work with me even though I wasn’t able to pay the full retainer upfront. He was willing to do partial payments that I could afford. He helped me reaffirm my car and fought Ford on what my car was truly worth. Ford was trying to overestimate my vehicle during the reaffirmation process. He was patient and very kind hearted. He was maintained his professionalism even while dealing with a loss of a loved one in his family. He took care of me and my family.

Mr. Cohen helped me with my bankruptcy this year. I was treated with the utmost professionalism, timely communication, considerate answers to questions, and stress-free requirements. I am grateful for the reasonable rates and kind treatment I received, and would highly recommend Joel Cohen, Attorney. I plan to hire him at any time in the future I should need an attorney again.

I had Joel handle a matter for me that was very time sensitive. He not only handled my matter very promptly, he was extremely courteous and professional. Would definitely use Joel again and would highly recommend his services.
