“If you want someone who is going to get stuff done, I highly recommend Cohen and Hirsch. Not only did I beat my case, I even got my record cleaned.”

“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.”

Defending Yourself Against Probation And Parole Violation Charges

Probation and parole violations are serious and can jeopardize your freedom. At Cohen & Hirsch our lawyers take probation and parole violations seriously. We work closely with our clients to guide them through the legal system from the moment we take your case until matters are favorably resolved. If you or someone you love are facing a probation or parole violation in DeKalb, Cobb, Fulton or Gwinnett county, we can answer your questions and help you determine the right criminal defense strategy for your unique situation.

Advantages Of Hiring A Criminal Defense Attorney

Did you know that you have rights even if you’re facing a probation or parole violation? Just like you have rights when you go to trial or enter a guilty plea, you have rights as a probationer or a parolee. You need individualized attention from attorneys skilled at handling probation and parole violations. At Cohen & Hirsch we do not take a cookie-cutter approach to criminal defense. When you are facing the potential loss of your freedom due to an alleged probation or parole violation you need a criminal defense attorney with experience at navigating a revocation hearing.

Maybe you failed a drug or alcohol screen. Perhaps you did not complete your community service. Maybe you missed a reporting date. Maybe you didn’t commit a violation and your probation or parole officer is just plain wrong. Whatever the situation may be, the attorneys at Cohen & Hirsch are experienced and knowledgeable in ways to defend against probation and parole violation allegations.

Did you know that the standard of proof on a probation or parole violation is “by a preponderance of the evidence” and not “beyond a reasonable doubt” as it was with the underlying criminal case? The State merely has to show that it is more likely than not that you violated your probation or parole in the manner alleged. That is not a very high burden for the State of Georgia to overcome – meaning that you need skilled representation to combat the allegations and maintain your freedom.

Our Goal: Keeping You Out Of Jail

Chances are you are already in custody and someone who loves you is searching for an attorney to represent you on your probation or parole violation. A successful outcome on a probation or parole violation hearing means only one thing — that after the hearing you get to go home to your loved ones. The attorneys at Cohen & Hirsch have handled hundreds of probation and parole violation hearings in Atlanta and throughout the state, and are experienced at attacking these types of cases.
