I had an excellent experience with The Cochran Firm. From the very beginning, my matter was handled with professionalism, attentiveness, and a genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. The team took the time to listen carefully, explain the process clearly, and make sure I felt supported every step of the way.
What truly stood out was their level of responsiveness and dedication. They treated my case with care and urgency, while maintaining the highest level of professionalism and legal excellence. It was clear that they are not only highly skilled attorneys, but also people who truly care about their clients.
I am very grateful to my attorney Derek Sells for his guidance and representation, and I would highly recommend The Cochran Firm to anyone seeking strong legal advocacy combined with thoughtful and attentive client service.
Very disappointed. After being told my case was submitted and I should receive a call or email, several weeks went by with nothing. I decided to call to check in and was transferred to an attorney named Steve Gold. He had all the information wrong regarding my case and everytime I tried to explain he cut my sentence short to interject. I felt extremely discouraged and insulted that I wasn’t even deserving of more than a minute of his time. If I could have explained myself more maybe I would have gotten better advice. Instead I was told to just check and try elsewhere but they won’t take the case. I was in the process of asking something else and he ended the call without me even finishing my sentence. My call log shows he only gave me exactly 60 seconds of his time. It’s apparent unless your case is life or death or something that would get them millions of dollars, you mean nothing to them. I wish I could get them negative stars. Even if my case was worthy I would never give this law firm another second of my time. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Rude, dismissive, and absolutely useless. Do yourself a favor and don’t even waste your time with The Cochran Firm. The people on the phone were nicer than the actually attorneys so please don’t let yourself get disrespected like I did.
I recently visited The Cochran Firm NY website and was impressed by both the professionalism of the site and the firm’s deep commitment to justice for their clients. The site clearly highlights the firm’s wide range of practice areas, including personal injury, medical malpractice, civil rights violations, and employment discrimination, which shows they are equipped to help people in many difficult situations. Their focus on free consultations and no fees unless you win is especially reassuring for anyone seeking legal help without upfront financial risk.
The firm’s track record is notable, with multiple high-value verdicts and settlements for clients, demonstrating that they don’t just take cases but they also pursue outcomes that can make a
real difference. This dedication is reflected in the way they describe fighting “against powerful opponents” and giving every client a voice, which builds confidence in their work.
Real clients echo this professionalism. Many reviewers praise the firm’s compassionate and communicative approach, noting that attorneys took time to listen, explain processes clearly, and provide strong support throughout their cases. One Trustpilot reviewer described the team as “tireless” and highly effective, and others highlighted how supported they felt during stressful
times.
Overall, The Cochran Firm NY comes across as a highly capable and client centered law firm,
one that combines legal expertise with personal care to support people when they need it most
I never imagined I would find myself in such a vulnerable and terrifying situation in New York City. Physically injured and facing the reality that my life had been forever changed by a defective product, I felt completely powerless—especially when the manufacturer denied any responsibility for what had happened to me. I was scared, overwhelmed, and unsure of what steps to take next.
A friend suggested I call the Cochran Law Firm, and I can honestly say it was the best decision I could have made. From the very first conversation, their team was compassionate, understanding, and deeply supportive. They listened to me—not just as a client, but as a person who had been through a life-altering trauma. Their care and attention made me feel seen and heard during one of the darkest periods of my life.
Most importantly, they fought tirelessly for justice on my behalf. Every step of the process, they explained clearly, guided me through the complexities of the legal system, and handled everything with unwavering professionalism and dedication. Thanks to the Cochran Law Firm, I not only received the justice I deserved, but I also regained a sense of hope and empowerment that I thought I had lost forever.
If you ever find yourself in a situation where you are vulnerable, injured, and unsure who to turn to, I cannot recommend the Cochran Law Firm enough. They saved me—not just legally, but emotionally and mentally—and I will be forever grateful for their support and advocacy.
I truly love The Cochran Firm and the incredible team they have. The staff is exceptional, and their dedication shows in everything they do. Highly recommended. From my very first call, their team was professional, compassionate, and very knowledgeable and to me that’s very important because they made a stressful situation feel manageable, and I always felt like I was in good hands. Highly recommend them to anyone who needs a reliable, high quality personal injury or legal team.❤️
If you are looking to feel heard, respected, understood. Choose The Cochran Firm, they have an amazing staff from their front desk to their paralegals. It comes as a smooth process for all. Thanks again Cochran firm!
My office and the The Cochran Firm have been referring clients cases to each other for about 20 years. My dealings with Derek Sells, Rudy Whyte, and the other attorneys and support staff have been most cordial and professional. I give the firm my highest recommendation.
Everyone at the firm is extremely polite and personable. They’re empathetic with whatever your situation may be. In time you’ll come to see their expertise/‘magic’, and you’ll be pleased with the results.
Pure disgrace to the Cochran name. speaking to Daisie had my hopes up only to be let down. They turned down my case but never clearly stated why. They gave conflicting statements. They strung me along for weeks. Their system is terrible and their communication is horrible. I would not recommend this law firm to anyone.
Great communications and results!
I had the most amazing experience using the Cochran Firm. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication , Derek Sells. I really appreciate it .
