Cohen & Iaria is a law firm with the resources and experience necessary to mount a sharply focused team defense in a wide variety of criminal cases. Based in Seattle, the firm and its attorneys have represented clients in state and federal courts throughout Washington and in matters throughout the Pacific Northwest.

With attorneys emphasizing different areas of practice, the firm has the depth to quickly assemble a defense team with the right blend of strengths and skills for almost any criminal case, whether at the investigation, trial, appellate, or post-conviction level. From shoplifting to white collar cases and from simple assault to capital murder, no case is too simple, too complex, or too daunting for the members of the firm.

At Cohen & Iaria, our efforts begin with the understanding that, although we handle "cases", we represent unique human beings whose lives may be devastated if we do not respond to the government's accusations with extraordinary effort, creativity and skill. Moreover, while we advocate vigorously for our clients, we also recognize the importance of keeping our efforts as discreet as possible, to protect professional reputations, businesses, and personal lives from the destructive taint produced by even the mere allegation of criminal conduct.

The firm as a whole has received the highest rating (AV) in the Martindale-Hubbell national lawyers directory. The firm's lawyers are accomplished and successful advocates, having received similar recognition, including AV and Washington Law & Politics "Super Lawyer" and "Rising Star" designations.
