LATEST TESTIMONIALS:
MD: The Law Office of Faye Riva Cohen, P.C. represented me in an age discrimination case against a prominent recreational facility in the Philadelphia area. They achieved an excellent result for me after a hard fought legal battle in federal court. They were able to overcome a vigorous defense, as well as a change in the law during the case which could have been detrimental to my case, but for their efforts. I am appreciative of everything that they did, especially since I was able to maintain my confidence and self-respect in the face of a situation in which my employer falsely accused me of being the party at fault.
JD: Ms. Cohen and her team stood by my side and successfully sought out justice for unfair medical insurance practices. After some months on the case, I received settlement and the Cohen team helped put a difficult period in my life behind me and my family. The Ms. Cohen's team was Professional, Courteous, Responsive, Accessible and Knowledgeable, particularly about ERISA matters in my specific case.
RM: Faye Riva Cohen did an excellent job for me when I was faced with a difficult situation at my workplace, a large national corporation. She was able to negotiate a substantial severance package for me and work closely with my workers' compensation attorney. She developed a good relationship with my employer's attorney, and through extensive negotiations, a fine result was achieved. I was able to leave my employment with funds to sustain me in my new job search, and a reference I could use in seeking a new job. I also referred a family member to her, and not to my surprise she did a wonderful job for him in his employment issue. She and I developed a friendly relationship, and I now count her among my friends and I feel confident that whomever I refer to her Firm is in very competent and caring hands.
