Ms. Cohen has a small firm in Philadelphia. Do not even consider calling this firm as they literally steal money over the phone! They have a nice scam going where they ask you for your credit card number in order to confirm you have the money to pay for legal fees. They swear they are just checking your credit line and guess what? They actually charge a significant retainer on your credit card. When I discovered this I asked for my money back as I hadn't decided if i wanted to hire them and they said no. Unbelievable! It took forever to get these crooks to return my money. Faye Riva Cohen herself is a criminal and should be disbarred. It is unfortunate that someone this unethical is allowed to continue to practice law.
It happened to us. Faye Riva Cohen started charging a fee, the day I called to inquire as to whether she would take the case. Then, from the time she took my son's case to this day, my son received approximately 4 letters from her. He was her client. But they were emailing ME and asking me to look over the attached Discovery, which I knew nothing about, stating they did not have direct access to my son. When I responded to them, telling them they should be sending that to their client, my son NOT ME. That's what they call billing for services? Six months after taking the case, I went on PACER to see where the case was at since she took the case. What I came across was a letter to the Judge on the case, letting the Judge know she had not yet taken the case and that she needed time because she was going on vacation.. SIX MONTHS LATER, while charging all those months. To make matters worse, she kept the monies from the settlement, even though she had already charged us and received over $20, 000.00 and NOTHING in the Settlement Agreement Order, was ever received by the client, my son. I didn't want to file complaints. However, after seeing others on the internet who have been scammed by this woman, I am giving this review because I don't want to see others going through the same. Ms. Cohen, all the bragging you did on the phone with me, about your success in cases, obviously were lies and whomever else is helping to keep you out of prison yourself, will soon be revealed. GOD DOES NOT LIKE EVIL.
