About Alan M
Alan M Cohen trained as a lawyer in the early 1980s and has practiced in Massachusetts for decades. He earned his Juris Doctor from Washington University School of Law in 1983 after completing undergraduate studies at Clark University, where he received a B.A. in Government and Geography in 1980. Those academic years shaped his approach to legal problems and provided a foundation for a long career in private practice.
After law school Cohen entered practice and established himself in the Massachusetts legal community. He is a member of the Massachusetts Bar Association and belongs to the Commercial Law League, affiliations that track with ongoing involvement in state bar activities and commercial law circles. Over time he has maintained ties to local professional groups while running a private practice.
Cohen’s professional life has centered on work out of his own firm, the Law Offices of Alan M. Cohen LLC. Running a small firm has meant wearing many hats: advising clients, managing casework and overseeing the administrative side of practice. Those responsibilities have given him a practical perspective on how legal services are delivered outside large firms.
Colleagues describe him as steady and pragmatic in client matters. He has balanced courtroom appearances and transactional work across a career spent entirely under Massachusetts jurisdiction. Membership in the Commercial Law League suggests regular exposure to creditor and commercial issues, while participation in the Massachusetts Bar Association has kept him connected to evolving rules and local practice developments.
Cohen’s work has been local and persistent rather than public-facing. He has not been positioned as a regular contributor to national legal media, but he has kept an active role within the legal networks of the state. That local focus has informed the kinds of clients and matters his office handles: often individuals and businesses needing counsel on state-level legal questions.
Today he continues to operate the Law Offices of Alan M. Cohen LLC in Massachusetts. He is active in the Commercial Law League and the Massachusetts Bar Association and practices law through his firm, providing legal services to clients in the state.
