Cohen joins Fishkin Lucks from an Am Law 100 firm where he was a litigation partner for more than 8 years. Cohen received his B.A. from Rutgers University and his J.D.

He is admitted in state and federal courts in New York, New Jersey and Illinois, as well as various circuit courts of appeal and the United States Supreme Court.
Fishkin Lucks is designed to deliver results exceeding expectations in a changed landscape for legal services. Out of its initial two offices in Newark (NJ) and New York City, the Firm delivers unparalleled litigation and risk management services in a client-centric, result-oriented manner that stresses efficient, cost-effective solutions. Through their 30-years combined experience in an Am Law 100 firm representing Fortune 500 and middle-market companies in matters ranging from significant “one-off” litigations to large inventories of cases around the country, the Firm’s co-founders understand the realities of clients’ changed demands. They formed their new firm to respond to those demands by offering “big-law” expertise and talent, in a lower overhead environment with sensible cost-controls. And, they are committed to offering that expertise and talent without losing sight of one “old school” principle by which they have always been guided: every new engagement presents opportunities to build or strengthen relationships and the Firm’s reward will always be its clients’ next matter or referral.
