As head of the criminal division of Cohen Forman Barone, David Cohen brings more than twenty years of experience, integrity, and excellence to the defense of each and every one of our clients. Having protected more than five thousand individuals and companies from the awesome powers of law enforcement over two decades, he has honed his negotiation and litigation skills to excellence. In the last several years David has been the lead attorney for CEOs of large multimillion-dollar companies, using his ability to help bring about the dismissal of numerous indictments. He has successfully negotiated to prevent charges being brought at all, and convinced law enforcement to cease investigations that would have otherwise put entire companies at risk and hundreds of employees out of work. As a former prosecutor, David possesses a commanding, intimate, and unparalleled knowledge of the inner workings of law enforcement. Through his firsthand experience as a prosecutor, David learned the who, what, where, when, and why of how government agents choose to investigate and bring charges. This allows him to not only protect those who are being targeted by law enforcement, but to guide, advise, and shield others from ever being prosecuted.
