I lost my job due to politics. Knowing it was all BS, I thought I had my appeal hearing in the bag. I ended up humiliated and denied.I received a yellow postcard. I spoke to Spencer briefly and sent my info over. Having been scammed in the past, I searched high and low for any possible red flags. It seemed the only red flag was that this guy was too good to be true. I went with my gut, sent the check and crossed my fingers. At this point, I only had 3-4 days to appeal the referee's decision. With no sweat, he told me not to worry. The request to appeal was sent. When I read the official appeal document he sent, I was enlightened and relieved.Weeks later (it takes a WHILE), I received the letter that the decision was reversed and we WON!!! No one should ever attempt a hearing without a representative just like never going to court w/o a lawyer. Spencer is your man!! I couldnt be more thankful & want to spread the word about his precision in unemployment law. THANK YOU! F. Milburn |

Spencer was always available, personal, knowledgeable and ultimately successful in my appeal for months of unemployment that I had been denied. My 24 year old daughter, who lives in NYC, had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in February. I left my job to be with her there through chemo since her insurance wasn't accepted in Florida. I was told by the state that I was eligible to receive benefits but then received a phone call from them that I was not. I tried appealing on my own to no avail. Only through the generosity of my single oldest 2 daughters was I able to buy food and pay my bills. I contacted Spencer and with his optimism that I had about an 85% chance of having their ruling overturned I decided to borrow the $250 from my 21 year old son. Through Spencer's expertise I was able to get the state to reverse the decision and I will now be receiving the thousands of dollars rightly owed me! I would highly recommend this lawyer!! |

I tried to take on my former company unrepresented. Not surprisingly, with the best lawyers money can buy, the company prevailed. Mr. Cohn appealed a horrific initial ruling and justice prevailed. Mr. Cohn is bright tenacious and most importantly understands the issues from the commissions point of view. I recommend Mr. Cohn unequivocally . He was worth to me many times the reasonable fee that he charged. |

Spencer Cohn is the BEST Unemployment Lawyer I've ever had the pleasure of working with. This gentleman went above and beyond the call of duty & fought vigorously against HSN LP in order to win my Unemployment appeal! If you EVER need someone to fight for you against a "Goliath" corporation, this man is DAVID who put the stone right in between the eyes of HSN, and HE WON! HSN fell like a ton of bricks and Mr. Cohn chopped off their head and held it up for all the world to see. If you ever need to fight Corporate America for wrongful termination, THIS IS THE MAN YOU WANT FIGHTING FOR YOU! I've read the wrongful reviews about Mr. Cohn and I will tell you that there are legal precedence that do take place where you can't win if the employee was just a bad employee to the point that the employer has the upper hand. Everyone makes mistakes, but the biggest mistake is Corporate America trying to run our Government. Mr. Cohn KNOWS HOW to circumvent the law. KUDOS to you, Mr. Cohn! <3 <3 <3 |

I hired Spencer originally in Feb. when my exemployer appealed my unemployment. I won that appeal quite simply because of the information Spencer gave me. I have never had any problems getting him on the phone or having my questions answered. Well my employer appealed again! This time he came with 3 witnesses. I was scared! I couldn't afford to pay back that money and god knows what my exemployer was going to pull out of his rear, this time. Well I won again and I didn't have to pay another cent to Spencer! He literally decimated my exemployer and all 3 witnesses. Trust me this man knows the laws of unemployment and how to handle himself in a judicial hearing like this. I would never reccommend anyone to go into an appeal with out a lawyer! Spencer Cohn is the man you want and need to represent you. Thank you so much Spencer. I will never forget it. -Lisa Ellis |

Unfortunately we can't be all things to all people. I had the opportunity to work with Spence & found him to be very responsive, knowledgeable and helpful in getting my situation overturned by the unemployment referee. I had been ruled against earlier, and if not for Spencer's assistance I would still be fighting the system. Spencer represented me on the phone hearing and was extremely effective in showing the referee the reason he should change his previous ruling.
I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Cohn in the future if I have employment related problems. |

I Hired spencer to help me to get my unemployment money when i was wrongfully fired at citrus health and rehab in inverness,fla,where i worked as a cna for 6 years.i really had gotten my hopes up,thinking that spencer was really going to help me.after waiting for almost 3 long months,the commision decided that i couldnt have my well deserved unemployment.and spencer never did call me,i always had to call him,thats bad customer service.he always seemed to be snippy and impatient when id call him.this has been a complete waste of my time and money.if spencers as good of a lawyer as said on here,i should of been awarded my unemployment,since i was wrongfully fired.and no,spencer,i wont bother to call you if i have any other employer problems,based on this bad experience. |

Spencer is one of a kind. My employer had no reason to fire me. So of course, I applied for Unemployment and of course she denied it. We had a hearing with Unemployment and my former employer and her representative. Spencer was real knowledgeable about my rights and he proved my case. He knows the laws inside and out.I got great satisfaction to where he cross examined my former boss. You can tell she was trying to make up information to prove her case. See, the good guys can't lose forever.I recommend him to anyone that is having a problem with Unemployment or your current employer. He is the best person to trust in these types of situations. Thank God for Spencer Cohn. |

THank the Lord for Spencer Cohn! If not for him knowing the unemployment and employment laws so well, I would have to pay back almost $3,000 of benefits!I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of an unemployment representative. I resigned from a job to take a job that paid a lot more. Unfortunately, after only 6 weeks, the new company lost its funding and I was laid off. I was told twice by the Unemployment Agency (via phone conversations) that I was entitled to benefits. Then, after 3 months, we informed that I did not qualify for the benefits! I appealed, not knowing I could have representation. I lost that appeal. Then Spencer Cohn sent me a postcard explaining his services. I called him, paid him and he won my case because I was continuously employed. |

I won my appeal today and I owe it all to this man!!! I lost my hearing and knew I needed more info if I was to win my appeal. He told me what to expect,how to answer and what would happen, going into this with all that knowledge was extremely self assuring! Trust me this is like a court case and is sooo scary, but I had Spencer and look what it got me..I win!! I highly reccommend Spencer Cohn! |

3/10/11: I recommend mr. Spencer to anyone who is fighting for unemployment benefits. I got his yellow business card on the mail after loosing my first unemployment hearing. I was skeptical at first but did some research and decided to hire him. It ended up being the best decision. He was very knowlegeble and straight to the point. He did an excellent job defending me during the hearing and basically sent my employer's attorney back to law school. I strongly recomend him to anyone. |

I was denied my unemployment and I was lost on how to proceed. I hired Spencer Cohen and he took the lead and got me thru the appeal process. The decision was reversed on first appeal. Mr. Cohen did a perfect job. He always responded to my emails and phone calls and answered any question I had very propmtly. Under 2 months I am now receiving my unemployment. I feel if I did this on my own I would of lost. Hiring Spencer Cohen was the best choice I could have made and would do it again. I strongly recommend Mr. Cohen if you are having to fight unemployment issues. Thank you Spencer |

I was unceremoniously fired at the height of the unemployment crisis of 2008/09, and had no idea where to turn with job prospects appearing grim. After being denied unemployment benefits due to untruths asserted by my employer, Spencer reviewed and organized all facts and opposing accusations for an appeal. On the day of the phone-conference, Spencer came out of our corner with the gloves off. Had I not been so nervous, I actually would have been entertained by a true Master at work. He showed a depth of knowledge, competence, and perseverance; combined with chutzpah that I have seldom seen. The self-reputed 'Dragon-Lady' had been left sputtering in the ashes. Needless to say, I received all benefits retroactively and thereafter during a lengthy job-seeking process. I even insisted on remitting a bonus to him, considering other guys were charging upwards of $800, and I would've been destitute w/o him. I'm now thrilled to be in a new, challenging, and rewarding position that I love.Thnx |

Spencer came through for me just when I thought all hope was gone and be liable for repayment. I tried to represent my appeal by myself but was shot down without finishing a sentence when the referee disconnected the phone call. Received Spencer's yellow card and was skeptical at first but went ahead to inquire. Boy, am I glad even though it took about 6 months to reslove all issues. I hired Spencer in 2/2010, 5 months later, the appeal has been reversed in my favor. I am still in shock and afraid to celebrate till I see all the money. The state repayment section was slow in reversing the amount even though the judge's deceision was final but Spencer re-assured me to be patience and the state will eventually catch up. My recommendation is to call him, you won't regret that deceision. Believe me, he been there and done that and knows the business...... |

I could never have done my unemployment appeal without Spencer as I am learning disabled., He prepped me and I felt confortable where without Spencer I would have been a nervous wreck. He knew exactly the questions to ask the employer.He caught himn off guard and he was floundering for answers, Whenn I hired Spencer I thought I had a minimal chance in winning. I wan and it was because of Spencer. My case was somewhat complicated because I was fired twice. |

Spencer came through for me just when I had given all hope. Got the good news yesterday,and was afraid that, even though my my appeal had been lost, now it has been reversed, this is after 2 yrs in appeals. I hired Spencer in 12/2009,lost again in 5/20010,but now 7 months later, the appeal has been reversed in my favor. I am still in shock and afraid to celebrate,till I see the money. I tried this on my own for a yr.,and denied each time, so Spencer is the man. Call him,you won't regret that deceision. I have learned that you should never give up. Our government will take and take, and never give back what is yours until you back them in a corner. |

on my 1st hearing i was on my own & lost it but when i hired Mr. Spencer it was a very good choice on my end. Mr. Spencer kick some good ass on the 2nd hearing (it took a while for the hearing, about couple of months but worth the wait FOR SURE) he put my exboss in his place and the refree had no other choice but to be in our side so of course we won the case and i can't explain how HAPPY i was the the end result!!! If you need a GOOD ASS KICKING lawyer on your side 500% of the way then w/o a 2nd thought hire Spencer Cohn 954-642-8144 believe me u won't regret it!!! |

Spencer Cohn has forever changed my opinion on lawyers. My mother was wrongfully terminated from Wal-mart and has challenges communicating with the public, but calling on Spencer was the best thing she could have done to get legal help and get what was rightfully hers. Kind, understanding, and punctual, Spencer made this battle an easy one to win. We are forever grateful for your help! |

Spencer Cohn is definitely worth hiring. He is unbelievable. He called me back every time I needed him, always replied to my emails, represented me at my hearing. He is extremely knowledgeable and very professional. He definitely knows unemployment law and without his help, I would have failed. Because of Spencer, everything went smoothly and I won. Thank you Spencer. You are the best! |

Spencer Cohn from beattheboss.tv is a master of Unemployment Law. After being mistreated and fired for no good reason, he helped me set the record straight and restore my dignity. I got my notice Friday night for the hearing Monday 8am and I used the number he gave me 954-642-8144. Although it was a weekend, he called me back, met with me and fully prepped me for my hearing. I learned a how a company can fire you for business reasons, but unless you committed gross misconduct, you are entitield to your unemployment. During the hearing, I was thrilled to hear Spencer systematically tear down false arguments and deliberate deceptions my former employer alleged. In a matter of moments, he had them fumbling and tripping over themselves as he relentlessly attacked every aspect of their claims and made them look foolish. Spencer knows Unemployment Law and the case studies he cited were right on target... I could hear it in the Referee's voice that she respected his position and presentation. |

Mr Cohn was very thorough in preparing me for my case. I was very nervous and thankful that he was representing me. Mr Cohn always called when he said he would and returned all my calls when I left messages. He helped me know what to say and what questions would be asked. I was very pleased that I didn't have to say much and that Mr Cohn would speak on my behalf and know how to cross examine the employer to my advantage. I was hesitate to seek a representative for my case, but oh so thankful I did and would highly recommend Mr Cohn to help anyone who yields the confidence of a lawyer/attorney. |

Spencer handled all the paperwork and my frantic phone calls with ease. My appeal to the comission was overturned, and he is representing me at my new hearing in July. Its been almost a year since we started this process and Spencer has always been a voice of calm reassurance. He truly is an expert in the field!! I couldn't be more appreciative!! |

I just got off the phone with my appeals that Mr. Cohn took care of. Let me tell you guys that are bad mouthing this man....GIVE IT TIME! You will not be disappointed. Mr. Cohn just dismantled my previous employer and their attorney like they were public defenders. I couldn't be happier. Win or lose....Mr. Cohn fought for me and my rights. He made sure that my previous employer's case was all hearsay and there was no proof what so ever. My name is Randy B. and Mr. Cohn if you read this, my family and I want to thank you for everything you've done and we will surely refer to family & friends that have lost their jobs unfairly. |

I made the bad decision to accept a part time job that caused me to operate in a very unsafe enviroment. I resigned after 2 days and the Unemployment Commission canceled my benefits because I quit. I appealed the decison and lost my appeal on 9/22/09. Mr Spencer Cohn then contacted me and due to his hard work and knowledge was able to have the decision canceling my benefits reversed this past week. Folks this guy is good. |

I called Mr Cohn when I thought I was going to loose all my unemployment money. Mr Cohn told me don't worry that he will get me my money, and he did. I received all my back retro money and all he charged me was 200 hundred dollors. If anybody needs a good unemployment laywer I would recomend Mr Cohn all the time. |

I hired Mr. Cohn after I lost my unemployment hearing. Mr. Cohn told me that we had to that we would appeal the commission and he would ask for the hearing copy to review.I was told that there would be a good chance to reverse the unemployment to my favor. After tape was reviewed and Mr. Cohn sent in my appeal I had to wait for the commission to review the facts. It took the commission almost 3months to come back with an answer. It was in my favor. The system is slow, but thanks to the help of Mr. Cohn I will be receiving my benefits. Thank you for your help, time and answering my questions.(No matter how many times I called) |

I lost my unemployment hearing. I received a solicitation card from Mr. Cohn. I called. He seemed knowledgeable.He said that my chances were 85% with him, 1% without him. I sent him $200. Called and faxed 2-3 times after that - no response. Emailed - he responded and told me to be patient, he requested my tape. Weeks went by, I emailed unemployement - they had no record of his request.I requested the tape be sent to him. I emailed him again. He called and raised his voice to me on the phone. Said I should not have called them. The confusion about the tape was never cleared up. The last time I spoke with him he still had not received the tape, then 2 days later he was sending the brief in. I point blank asked him when he received the tape, he never responded. It was all very convoluted and confusing. I lost the case. When he filed the brief he said he thought he made a good case. This was a total waste of time & energy, not to mention $200. Very disheartening. |
