The Probate Guy – Robert L. Cohen

When we were in need of advice when my mom died leaving behind a will/​trust that my sister refused to let us see, Robert Cohen was there and helped us find the answer to our questions. He is honorable, respectful, and goes above and beyond to help people understand the complex world of probate, wills, trusts, etc. I highly recommend using Robert as your attorney. He really is the probate guy! I know we can’t thank him enough for all the help he gave us!
Sincerely, Jackie from Minnesota

I spoke with Mr. Cohen on Monday June 13 briefly regarding a probate matter to see if he could possibly represent me. After researching my case he found he could not but he did provide me with additional information that could assist me further. All free of charge. Thank you Mr. Cohen.

I have interveiwed a few attorneys, regarding my fathers trust.
Robert Cohen by far out shines them all with his in depth of knowledge of trust. Most attorneys won’t give you the time of day with out signing a retainer, with Robert he will take the time with you to understand your case, this is a case regarding a home that should have been put in trust and wasn’t, Robert has been very kind in guiding me through the process for the most economical way possible, to get the house in the trust, it all worked and now Robert can concentrate on our case. Thank you Robert for all your time and expertise.
Your the best!

When I called Mr Cohen I was so confused and had no clue where to start. Mr Cohen is very knowledgable and was quick to answer all the questions I had… he went way above what any other attorney would have done… I appreciate you greatly!!! You rock!!!

Mr. Cohen was extremely helpful and very informative with all the questions my mother and I had. He was able to advise us with no wait time and made us feel at ease and comfortable while addressing our concerns. I would recommend Mr. Cohen!

A few years ago when our father passed away, we were clueless on what to do about settling his estate. After calling many probate attorneys in the Los Angeles area and basically being set aside or brushed off by their receptionists we decided to give Robert Cohen a call. He was very attentive and knowledgeable about the process and even met with my brother in his office at no charge to discus a game plan.
He had suggested that we wait a year until things smoothed over and start picking up the pieces from there. I am so glad we took his advice because it gave us time to get the estate property in order and ended up saving us a lot of money in the long run.
We were very happy with Roberts hands on approach and very thankful for his willingness to coach us through the process. He made a very stressful situation manageable for our family. We would highly recommend his services to anyone in a heartbeat.

Timely. Graceful. Honest (seemingly, anyway — it was just one phone call).
Afraid of lawyers? Give this guy a shot.
Trust, but verify.

Robert is an understanding and knowledgable attorney. He is generous with his time, easy to reach, answers his emails quickly and a caring individual. Robert has recently helped me with the loss of my father and has been extremely reassuring as I’ve taken care of my father’s estate. I highly recommend him.

I called Robert on a probate issue, he offered me a better solution and was very helpful in finding me the right guy.
Robert is knowledge and was very easy to talk to.
I would recommend Robert to anyone who need this kind of help.
and the best thing is that he didn’t even charge me

Talked to him regarding a joint tenancy issue in AZ. Although, he couldn’t take the case, since he is not licensed in AZ, he gave me great advice! Super nice guy.

How someone treats those they don’t have to treat well tells a lot about the person. By that standard Robert L. Cohen is a giant! I am currently in a very difficult situation with an elderly parent. Even though Robert doesn’t do the type of legal work I need, he helped me select and referred me to a trusted attorney that does, all without asking me for a dime. In my opinion, this is the mark of a true professional and a nice man. I needed a compassionate, clear eyed assessment and some friendly professional advice, I got both, much more than I bargained for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Robert L. Cohen to anyone. Thank you again, I really needed help and you helped me, and it can’t be understated how very much I appreciate you for that.

I have had the opportunity to watch Robert, over the past several years, guide many clients through the often lengthy process of probate. I find that when i work with his clients, that they are well informed of what to expect about the probate process and that nothing «falls between the cracks». Robert coordinates a team of professionals, such as realtors, CPAs, other attorneys and financial advisors, of whom he is very demanding (I would know, I’m one of them!) to ensure that his clients’ interests always come first.
I know that Robert’s depth of knowledge and breath of experience has come from many years of practicing probate law and it shows every time he is facing yet another unique situation.

I called The Probate Guy Robert Cohen when my father passed away. This is the time when family’s sometimes fall apart and there’s always one member that wants it all. When other attorneys wanted a ridiculous amount of money, for a retainer. Robert put up all the funds and told me to relax I had enough on my shoulders. Robert and his staff are amazing! With all the family’s emotions running high he maintained the peace and got the job done .He always kept me informed on our Case and took care of the sale of my fathers home with a trustworthy realtor. His fees are extremely fair. Thank God there are still good honest attorneys out there!

Robert did an awesome job with my grandmothers estate. He really has his clients best interest in mind. He sometimes tends to talk lawyerish, which means the things he was saying were over my head, but if you just ask him to explain things in normal people terms, he really takes the time to help you understand. The estate he worked on for me was quite a mess, but Robert made the process easy and painless. I’ve even called Robert after everything was done just to get his opinion on things, what an outstanding person!

I was hesitant to contact The Probate Guy. I spoke to Mr. Cohen. He was not like any other legal professional I had spoken to in current or in pass circumstances, and without disclosing the details of our case. He simply and I mean very simply cleared all my questions AND did NOT, I repeat did NOT solicit his professional services. I have NEVER been so respected especially after the loss of my two dads. Thank you very much Mr. Cohen. May you reap what you sow more than you sow far much later than you sow. C.F.S. I will contact you again and hope to be able to gleam from your many years of experience. Thank you for being honest and establishing integrity. There are definitely not too many like you.

I got in touch with Robert to do the probate on my father’s house. Prior to that I had interviewed a few other attorneys and started to notice inconsistencies in their evaluations and suggestions. When I got to Robert and mentioned what I had been told he cleared everything up and showed me all the codes to substanciate his information. He collected all my information and started the process of probate. He had excellent contacts, from investigators to real estate agent, etc. By the way his real estate agent Rhonda Byrd is super awesome. Robert did not require ant payment from me until everything was complete. Robert and his assistant, Jenna are very helpful and personable. I had a very good experience with Robert Cohen. I recommend him to everyone. He and his team made a difficult situation not seem so bad.

I used Robert for the liquidation of my business. We had be operating 26 years and Robert made the process a little easier. I found him very forthcoming, very easy to get in contact with, and willing to spend time with me on other legal issues. I highly recommend him
