Phillip J Cohn Special Education Attorney - Norwalk, Connecticut

Gordon B.

Phil is an exceptional special education attorney with deep domain expertise with comprehensive knowledge of special education programs and laws. He has extensive experience working with local school districts, counsel and programs. I highly recommend Phil as trusted legal counsel to anybody seeking quality and trusted special education representation and advocacy support. He provided invaluable assistance and counseling to our family during difficult times and strongly advocated to defend my son's rights to education and services.

Phil is an excellent attorney and an expert in special education law. In addition to knowing the law he understands the practical and financial implications for families and was instrumental in helping our family navigate the entire process. He provided invaluable assistance and counseling during a really difficult time.

I'm using my son's account to post this review. Working with Phillip didn't feel like just working with a lawyer, he felt like a friend. He took a genuine interest in my (other) son's case and even followed up afterward to find out how things were going with him.

I wish I had come to him sooner and I highly recommend him!

Attorney Cohn is amazing. Sadly, he wasn’t able to take my case but he was the only attorney out of 4 contacted that actually took the time to call me back and tell me that he doesn’t handle my case. The cherry on top was that although he wasn’t able to take my case, he listened to me and offered some suggestions which were VERY helpful! I wish he could’ve taken my case. If you ever need a secondary education attorney, go with Cohn! I can tell he’s will get the job done!

Phil Cohn was the perfect combination of professional and compassionate when my husband and I used him for our son’s outplacement case. He has full knowledge of educational law and an excellent response time.

Phillip and his team have been invaluable to us in helping navigate the transition out of the school system for our child and helping us prepare a special needs trust.
An indispensable part of our team.
