Richard Jaffe worked as a paralegal for several respected litigators, including his mentor and future law partner, Stephen Cohen, before attending law school. After earning his law degree from Touro Law Center on Long Island in 1995, he came aboard our firm as an associate attorney and became a junior partner within five years.

Today Richard is the managing partner and a driving force of the Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe LLP. He is our lead trial lawyer, overseeing three associate attorneys and a support staff in our successful practice in personal injury, medical malpractice and wrongful death.

In addition to 17 years of focused legal representation, Richard has a background as a firefighter and certified EMT (emergency medical technician) and is a certified brain injury specialist. He worked a weekly shift as a volunteer medic in Brentwood. He is acutely familiar with the traumatic impact of auto collisions and other accidents on the victim and family members, and likewise has uncommon insight into the medical issues, all of which enables him to advocate more effectively in pursuit of maximum compensation.
