Echoing the 250+ 5 start reviews, this firm is stellar. I genuinely cannot recommend them enough. Every single person with whom we interacted at this firm not only had amazing attitudes, they were genuinely wanting to achieve the best outcome for you, and in this specific case, they got the best possible outcome in a very short time frame. Shoutout to Ben, Zachary, Daria and Leo for all their attentiveness and assistance! When we first set out to select a law firm for the case in question, we spoke to several law firms, and what stood out to us about Cohen Forman Barone was that 1) they quickly took note of the context of the case and immediately provided a possible action plan / resolution plan while not requiring a consultation fee, 2) they genuinely showed that they cared and that we were not just another number. Once retained, they provided continuous updates from start to finish. Trust me when I say that they are the people you want in your corner. Thank you Cohen Forman Barone and congratulations on having such a stellar team and such a dedication to serving your clients!

I am incredibly grateful to this team for helping my family member finally receive their green card after an over-10-year immigration journey. They are truly experts in handling complex immigration cases, and their knowledge, dedication, and attention to detail made an enormous difference throughout the process. Immigration matters can be incredibly stressful and overwhelming, but their clear guidance, professionalism, and expertise gave me confidence every step of the way. I am so thankful for all of their hard work and commitment to my case. I would wholeheartedly recommend this team to anyone looking for an immigration lawyer. Thank you for helping make this long-awaited success possible!

I contacted Benjamin L. Simpson of Cohen Forman Barone for help with a complicated and stressful immigration issue. After our initial 30-minute consult, I knew I was speaking with the right lawyer. Ben is incredibly knowledgeable across multiple areas of US immigration legal practice. The issue I was dealing with went from a terrifying black box of anxiety to a tangible, addressable situation with a clear path forward. Ben is an absolute pro and, despite some of the inherent uncertainties of my situation, helped me resolve things quickly and smoothly. Not only does he know his stuff, the entire team at Cohen Forman Barone PC are warm, caring, and go above and beyond when it comes to helping clients in immigration situations. I recommend Ben and his firm wholeheartedly.

I am very pleased with Cohen Forman Barone and the exceptional legal service they provided. The firm’s experience made them the best choice for me as a guide through the naturalization process; at the same time, CFB is on top of things in these changing times. My lawyer, Benjamin L. Simpson, explained the process to me carefully and answered questions about my particular situation from the start and at key moments along the way. Angel Bonnet, senior Paralegal, and the team responded rapidly to requests for technical help. No problem at either level was too small to address. With CFB, preparation for submission of the strongest possible application is key, and their guidance on gathering the necessary documents and evidence of strong moral character was indispensable. My lawyer came to the interview with me and we remained in touch afterwards. I recommend Cohen Forman Barone highly for anyone who is planning to become a U.S. citizen.

Review: If you are looking for a professional, experienced law firm that cares about its clients, always responds quickly, answers all your questions, and clearly explains all the options available for your case, I recommend Cohem Forman Barone. Attorney Harrison Beitler and Maria Paula Torrealba handled my father's case. The attorney was very professional and worked extremely hard on the case; as a client, I witnessed the dedication and effort he put into every step and stage of the proceedings. On another hand. Maria Paula helped me a great deal, both professionally and personally; she was always quick to respond and was a huge help with translation. She also supported me emotionally when I was very frustrated with the case. They make a great team together and are very professional. As proof of their professionalism and the excellent work they do, I can now say that my dad is back home with us. That’s why I recommend Cohem Forman Barone 100%.

They went above and beyond in every level I don’t think I would’ve had anywhere near the outcome. I did if it wasn’t for them both on the personal level and in court. There really proactive creative caring you’re not just another client. You’re a priority.
