Tradition of Client Satisfaction
A lawyer should be more than just a source of information. Whether you are seeking legal representation for a personal injury, car accident or slip and fall, the attorney you hire should serve as a trusted advisor and mentor, someone who listens to your goals and identifies options to help you reach them.
At Cohen & Associates, P.C., in Salem, Massachusetts, that is the type of service we provide. Our attorneys and highly trained staff are committed to the success of the individuals and businesses we represent.
Attorney Jeremy Cohen of Cohen & Associates in Salem has been chosen to take responsibility for the caseload and clients left behind by the passing of attorney Leonard Berkal earlier this year (Salem News).
We understand that many of our clients have never interacted with the legal system before and may feel uncertain about meeting with a lawyer. We strive to alleviate anxiety by offering a high level of professionalism tempered with a small firm feel and individualized service, taking the time to answer all your questions.
The origins of the firm date back to the mid-1970s. It was then that Attorney McCarthy had begun developing a law practice that emphasized long hours of hard work for bankruptcy and personal injury clients as well as for creditors. After more than three decades of success, we are proud that Attorney McCarthy retired as a member of Cohen & Associates. The tradition of the way he practiced law is not only our history, but our priority.
The firm itself is located in a fire engine house built in 1861 and operational through 1973. It has housed steam, horse and engine powered firetrucks.
