“Hired Matt Hirsch at a distance to take on a traffic case with a missed mandatory court appearance (or two). Even as the case dragged on longer than anticipated (not the fault in any way of the lawyer), and indeed went a couple rounds, Mr. Hirsch remained engaged, positive, and proactive. I firmly believe he and his firm resolved my case with the best outcome for me. Would recommend Cohen & Hirsch for cases of my type without reservation, and his working for me at a fairly great distance, without my ever appearing back in state, deserves particular note”

“I found Andy Cohen via a google search and after our initial phone conversation I was happy to hire him. The circumstances that drove me to solicit an attorney were sensitive to say the least. He was kind, sympathetic and detailed which I appreciated very much. He kept me well informed throughout the hearing process and Andy always made sure to be available if I had any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Andy and his team to help you through what is likely a difficult process.”

“Seamless experience dealing with Andy and Jill. They are both very knowledgeable and will go to bat for you. I was referred to Cohen and Hirsch by a friend and will refer them to others myself. Truly great people who care and love what they do. One thing that stood out to me is that they will update you consistently without you having to reach out. I will continue to use them in the future and so should you.”

“Matt was great. The day I called him he jumped right in and a week later charges were dropped! He’s my guy here on out. Not to mention he saved me 3k from the first firm I called.”

“If I could rate this law firm with more stars, I would. If you desire an excellent attorney that cares, has a great relationship with court system, communicates quickly, stays on top of your case and strives for the best outcome possible, then look no further than this law firm. Jill and Andy handled an extremely complicated case for my son with special needs and we received the outcome we desired. His case was dismissed and he can move now on with his life. I am very pleased and grateful to them for their efforts.”

“Matt was a great treasure! Always kept calm and let me be the same. Looking at his fb feed, I was convinced he’s the right person for me. Helped get through a difficult situation. His fees were also comparable to the others given the amount of personal attention he paid to the case. Never had the trouble of dealing with the paralegals(as we all know what happens). He was always available on text. Great experience!!”

“Wow, what an unexpected experience. We have all heard the horror stories and the jokes about lawyers. Well, I've been fortunate not to have had reason to use a lawyer... until now. Or at least that is what I thought. I don't want to get into the details, but I had sent an inquiry into the firm through their website and Andy reached out to me. He was patient, professional and funny. He spent a good 15 to 20 minutes on the phone with me. Explained to me in detail what I could expect. And recommended that I don't actually need a lawyer for what I have to do. I can't express my sincere gratitude enough. In the event I ever do need a lawyer, I know exactly who I'm calling.”

Have You Been Charged With Felon In Possession Of A Firearm?

If you were convicted of a felony, you have been stripped of your right to bear arms. Even living in a house with someone who possesses guns and keeps them on the premises is illegal.

At Cohen & Hirsch, our lawyers are aggressive litigators. We use every tool in our arsenal to defend clients against unlawful possession of firearms charges, and keep them out of jail. Located in Atlanta, Cohen & Hirsch helps convicted felons throughout the state defend against unlawful gun possession charges.

Building A Defense Against Unlawful Possession Of Firearms

In Georgia, convicted felons who are caught in possession of firearms face serious felony charges, steep fines and up to five years in prison. If your prior felony conviction was for a “forcible felony” — a crime involving violence or the threat of physical force — you will be sentenced to five years in prison.

If you are on probation for a prior conviction, being charged with unlawful possession of a firearm may cause your probation to be revoked, returning you to prison to serve your original sentence.

We Work To Obtain Your Best Outcome In Your Case

At Cohen & Hirsch, we know our way around the courtroom and we aren’t afraid of a fight. Our attorneys are experienced litigators and we prepare every case for trial. Because the prosecution knows we are prepared to battle it out in court, it comes to the bargaining table with better plea offers. When the deals are good, we advise our clients to take the deal. However, if we believe a better result can be obtained through trial, we will take your case to court and fight for your rights.

As a former prosecutor, attorney Jill Polster knows how the prosecution thinks. She knows how to identify cracks in the prosecution’s case and builds defense strategies that the prosecution cannot ignore.
