What Our Clients Are Saying . . . 

Brilliant, Excellent Writer, and Genuine Personality

I hired Austin for a high conflict case about parenting time & decision making. My daughter will benefit in big ways, both now and in the future. I got the exact outcome I was looking to achieve and more. Austin’s understanding of the psychology behind the case was remarkable and the psychologist that were involved raved that I choose the right lawyer. In the very beginning, he genuinely tried to settle, but the other side would not budge. So then he wrote a legal motion that was exceptional. It was highly professional the way he wrote about the weaknesses in the other side’s case without insults or being catty. During the deposition, Austin had my ex talking in circles - and he did it with tact and grace. 3 weeks before the trial, the opposing side got the Judge to let them use an expert witness and evaluate my daughter the next day, which was on a Saturday. Austin stayed up all night on Friday and wrote a letter with evidence to the other side’s expert and made sure it hand delivered the next morning before the evaluation. When the other side’s expert released the report, it did not help my ex and aligned with the same information in Austin’s letter. Then 2 days before the hearing, the other side gave up. I would also say that Austin has a very genuine personality and really cared about helping me and ensuring my daughter was the one that got the most benefit from the case. Austin has my highest recommendation.

Highly Recommended for Complex Divorce Proceedings

I cannot recommend Austin Cohen highly enough. As an attorney myself, I was highly selective with whom I retained to represent me in my recent divorce. Austin came highly recommended and immediately gave me confidence in not only his understanding of the applicable laws, but also in how he incorporated and addressed my goals and concerns in the proceedings. The matter was highly complex, involving multiple properties, international assets and an eight figure trust estate. Austin devised a strategy for the proceedings that had me feeling one step ahead and executed that strategy to achieve all the goals I set out. Most tellingly, the strategy foresaw times or issues when the other side could be expected to dig in and how to navigate those issues and put myself in a better position for achieving my goals and objectives in the proceeding. He included me in his analysis process, provided valuable counsel on matters of opinion, set out clear steps to bring the matter to resolution, and followed those steps. I am very confident the timely and successful conclusion of the divorce was the direct result of Austin's excellent representation and counsel.

Finally I found someone who knows the ADA inside and Out

I have been with another attorneys in my past, Spencer is one of most reliable and quick-response communication that assisted us through the frustrating situation. The outcome with his service turned out smoothly and met our needs within few days. He clearly know what to do so I would recommend and encourage you, deaf or hard of hearing, to use his services. I definitely will use him again for any discrimination experience I confront.

A Great Guide Confidant for a Tough Time

Austin Cohen was an invaluable resource and guide during a difficult time. My wife and I had mostly separate finances, each building assets in our own way, with a combined estate of more than $10 million. I didn’t realize how the courts would view this (as marital property), and that dividing it would require complex valuations and backward-looking snapshots that would be hard to find or create. It felt invasive, and more complicated than I had imagined. When I called Austin, he immediately reassured me and explained the divorce process. He answered my questions without assuming any prior knowledge. Throughout, he respected my desire to keep things non-adversarial, although a more combative approach would have meant more billable hours for him. At the same time, he advised me about things we could do that might generate a better financial outcome for me, helping me understand the process of discovery and the role of potential outside experts. He advocated for my financial interests and acted as a sounding board, but ultimately allowed me to call the shots. He was available any time I needed, including by phone on short notice. I was grateful to have someone to talk to not only about the strictly legal aspects of the case but also about what I was going through. I hope I never need to use him again but I am grateful for the counsel and support he provided during a tough time and would recommend him to anyone else going through a divorce.

The Good Guys!

Austin and his team are honest, ethical and professional. Yes, that's right, TEAM. This group of attorneys, paralegals and assistants work TOGETHER. Everyone in the office has some knowledge regarding your case and they work in unison, consulting and communicating with each other. They are perhaps some of the most patient professionals I've ever met and allow absolutely none of their ego to influence their advice or behavior in your case or in the courtroom. What they do offer, however, is straightforward, non- candy-coated insight, based upon their experience and tailored to each part of your individual process. They understand how difficult these types of cases can be and are compassionate and supportive. They are extremely bright, focused, resourceful and are always considering the potential impacts of your case long before you imagine them. They are exceptionally thorough and articulate. They exhibit incomparable foresight and though they often seem conservative in their approach, they are appropriately aggressive when necessary. They always confer and communicate with me before moving forward with anything. They are rule followers and approach their cases and the system with what seems to be an increasingly neglected and lost attribute in the profession- INTEGRITY. They always consider the cost/benefit ratio of the particular situation and accordingly offer advice (logically- but occasionally to my dismay) that often steers me in a direction I might otherwise not have chosen. They weigh the impact of the financial and emotional repercussions each potential decision could have on the case and our entire family. They have literally tolerated and sacrificed so much during my time with them; they are the only reason I continue to hold hope for what seems like an unjustly monitored and broken system. If you are searching for professionally composed, transparent, honest, and dedicated attorneys, Austin and his team fit the bill.

Talented in the Courtroom

Austin was a professional in the courtroom for my trial. My ex-wife hired a former district attorney who tried everything in the book, but ended up failing in all of his efforts. Austin’s cross exam of my ex left no stone unturned and the Judge even talked about it in the ruling when she gave 100% of the overnights and decision making to me. I should also say that I was accused of parental alienation and Austin protected me and my reputation. What was also impressive was that Austin used my ex’s expert witness against her and saved me the money from having to hire my own expert. I should also say that my case had been ongoing for about 8 years and I previously had two different attorneys. It was not until I hired Austin that I saw results and he fixed my case for good. I will never have to go back to Court and I have Austin to thank for that.

extremely creative attorney and a highly skilled litigator

Spencer is an extremely creative attorney and a highly skilled litigator. He treats every client - big or small - with the utmost care and attention. He's also the only member of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Bar Association in Denver and is doing great work for that community.

Look no Further

I had the pleasure of working with Austin for my divorce case. You can tell that he has your best interest in mind, but also acts in a manner in which to resolve issues. His philosophy on my case was to be amicable at all times, but if opposing counsel becomes aggressive, to respond in kind.

I can’t say enough good things about Austin. If you are looking for a family law attorney and your case involves both kids and custody, I would. put complete faith in Austin over any other attorney, to ensure I retain custody of my kids.

Austin is also well-known and respected amongst opposing attorneys and the court system. I’m so lucky to have found Austin and can’t stress enough that I believe he is the top family law attorney in Denver. Nobody paid or asked me to write this review; I just can’t thank Austin enough for his services and passing on a good review for others in my situation is the only way I can think to repay him and show my gratitude.

Best Attorney

So I would consider the conflict between my ex and I really high considering just about anything I could have even imagined happening did and then some. Needles to say it was ugly.  When I had my first sit down with Austin he was extremely patient, understanding and you could tell he took my case seriously and I wasn't just another notch in his belt. He made sure he took everything he possibly could into consideration. Very much a straight shooter and professional.  His staff and him worked around the clock for 2 weeks to prove my innocents during our motion to restrict. When we went to court the judge filed a directed verdict in our favor and I must say having Austin and his team right next to me was definitely a showcase of power and satisfaction I won't soon forget. He gave me my son back. I am honestly forever grateful I hired such an extraordinary attorney. If you have any doubts at all about his professionalism or ethics, please take it from me, he is the absolute best attorney I ever hired.

Excellent, thorough, and highly competent attorney

'From the first time I spoke with Austin and explained my situation, I knew that he was the right attorney for me. He treated me as a partner in achieving my goals and not just as a client. He is very competent and detail-oriented. Austin asked all the right questions; listened to me intently; requested all the right documentation; educated me on the law; and asked me about the outcome I desired. He was very professional and consistently upfront with me. He provided the pros and cons regarding possible outcomes and costs – both personal and monetary - of pursuing a path, leaving the final decision to me. I found him to be both considerate and a straight shooter. He was well prepared for my divorce proceedings and the judge thought so, too! The judge noted and complimented him on his thoroughness regarding documentation filed with the court and case law cited to support the arguments on my behalf. In addition, the judge was impressed with the spreadsheet exhibit he created that enabled the judge to quickly view the totality of the marital estate along with the proposed assets & debts to be allocated to each spouse. In the end, he formulated a strategy that worked out well. It incorporated my goals and achieved the best possible outcome for me. Austin is an excellent attorney and I highly recommend him!'

Reliable, Talented and Professional

'I could not be more pleased with the representation I received from Austin Cohen, and I would recommend Austin to anyone seeking the assistance of counsel in a divorce matter. My case involved a number of complex legal issues, and Austin managed my case in a competent and professional manner, providing information in such a way that gave me the utmost confidence that I was moving forward in my case armed with the information I needed to make informed and responsible decisions. What I appreciated most about Austin, however, was how he relayed legal concepts to me concisely - in a way that, as a non-lawyer, I understood. Austin continues to represent me with my legal matters, and I will continue to seek Austin's assistance and counsel whenever needed.'

Excellent, articulate and compassionate attorney

'Austin represented me in a family law matter. He did an excellent job of educating me and advising me throughout the proceedings. He listened to my feedback and incorporated my goals and needs in every thing he did. He is an excellent attorney and I give him my full recommendation.'
