Mark H. Cohen is widely recognized as a leading litigation attorney in the greater New York City real estate industry having achieved success while still in his mid-40’s. That success derives from his ability to simultaneously think like a business man and a lawyer. Born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised in North Brunswick, New Jersey, Mark brings a passion and spirit to his representation of clients in the greater New York City area.

In 2011, Mark founded Mark H.
