About Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe

Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe works from Marcus Avenue in New Hyde Park, with a second office in Jackson Heights, and names five attorneys.

539 reviews at 4.9 across two listings. Contingency fees, a free consultation, a 24 hour line, hospital and home visits and pages in Spanish, published. It publishes 38 case results with amounts of its own and they are its figures rather than ones we confirmed.

What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it

LFL Elite 2026

Scored 87 out of 100 on measured evidence, above the 93 this tier requires, with every eligibility gate its state allows us to check cleared.

No public discipline

None of the 5 named attorneys carries a disciplinary status on the public register: no disbarment, suspension or disciplinary resignation. Those statuses persist, so the check reaches back years, but it would not show a censure or a suspension since lifted.

539 client reviews

Counted across 2 verified Google Business Profile listings, not collected by us and not solicited through us.

4.9 average over 539 reviews

A high rating is easy at low volume and hard to hold at this one. Pillar C scores it against the market rather than against five stars.

Service in Spanish

Published by the firm on its own pages, which is how this was measured rather than assumed from a name.

38 results published

Across 9 case types on the firm's own site. We read the page and counted what is on it; the amounts are the firm's and we have not confirmed them.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe charge?
Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe publishes a contingency fee, which means the fee is a share of what the case recovers and there is nothing to pay if it recovers nothing. The rate itself is not published, so ask for it in writing, along with how case expenses are handled and whether they come out of the recovery before or after the fee. The first consultation is free, which is the place to ask.
