EXCELLENT Based on 111 reviews Posted on Dillon DeMore I was referred to Mr. Cohen by a local attorney in Colorado. He came up with the plan to help my uncle retain his Medicaid approval while receiving an inheritance. Donna was the paralegal and she was essential in the execution of the plan, and executed it flawlessly. I couldn't be happier with Michael, Donna, and Skylar's guidance and execution during this process. They all did an amazing job and I happily recommend the firm to anyone trying to navigate these situations with TXHHS/Medicaid or for any needs that arise in this area.Posted on Landon Harris I cannot recommend Michael B. Cohen & Associates highly enough. They've been handling my grandmother's Medicare and Medicaid case for several years now, and the experience has been exceptional. Donna, in particular, has been absolutely instrumental throughout this entire process. Her knowledge of the process is impressive, but what really sets her apart is her dedication and willingness to go the extra mile. She's always responsive and patient when we have questions and has guided us through what could have been an overwhelming situation. The perfect example of her expertise and tenacity: Donna fought with the State of Texas for 11 months to get money refunded to us. When we had given up hope, she kept pushing forward. Thanks to her knowledge, expertise, and sheer diligence, she made it happen. Honestly, I don't think we could have navigated any of this without her. If you're looking for an elder care attorney who will truly advocate for your family, this is the firm to call.Posted on Ron Butts After speaking with Skylar Butts, Client Manager, I was so impressed that I was compelled to provide this review. Ms. Butts is such an awesome representative of the Michael B Cohen Law Firm and she exhibits great customer service skills which makes one, like myself, feel there’s only one law firm for my family. RonPosted on Kari Montee My mom was referred to Michael Cohen by a family friend. We both agreed he has great compassion and knowledge for estate planning. So when it came time for my husband and I to do our planning, we knew to call Mr. Cohen. We just we wanted to say how thankful we are to Mr. Cohen and his wonderful staff.Posted on Connor Bourque Skylar, who answers the phone, is always extremely helpful!Posted on Loren Farrar Skylar is by far the best to do it!

The entire staff is kind and inviting- always willing to answer all questions! Mr. Cohen was extremely patient, knowledgeable, and professional while explaining and speaking to my elderly father.
