    Trusting Brittany and Todd is the smartest move I have ever made! I was recommended to Cohen and Donahue, and I would absolutely recommend that you call this firm to discuss your situation. They are experienced lawyers that care about the best outcome for you. I witnessed Todd defend my case in court, and successfully overturn the charge!!! He knew exactly what to say, and he got my license unsuspended! This firm knows the law, and I promise you that calling them can take a scary situation and help you sleep better at night.

    When I needed legal help, I immediately thought of Ed Donahue. My matter was in Cook County, so he sent me to Todd D Cohen. Thank goodness that happened. By having Mr Cohen as my attorney, I gave myself a fighting chance. As it turns out he won the case for me. Mr Cohen is, in my opinion, the BEST attorney around. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him. He's everything you need in a lawyer. Very professional, extremely knowledgeable, highly motivated, and committed to winning. Make the right choice by choosing TODD D COHEN

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

  • Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
  • Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
  • Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
  • City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
