Attorney claims to be a specialist in bankruptcy matters. I hired HI and paid HIM $8,000 for legal services, but he gives bad legal advice, has no confidentiality, makes excessive charges for hearings he does not attend, fails to properly advise, does not do the work, and fails to return phone calls

LISTEN TO HOW HE TALKS ABOUT HIS FORMER CLIENT. HE WILL DO NOTHING FOR YOUR PROBLEMS AND THEN BLAME YOU!
AUTHOR: - (United States)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, September 06, 2018
So if you are looking to hire an “expert” attorney in bankruptcy, a specialist, like Baruch Cohen claims to be,
and you’re googling bankruptcy experts, things are probably not going great in your life, but that doesn’t
mean you’re a bad person or a criminal. You need to hire an attorney to help your situation.
BUT DPON’T HIRE BARUCH COHEN, HERE’S WHY.
He claims to be an “expert bankruptcy attorney”. He won’t do anything. Then he will blame you, just like he’s
blaming me now in that rebuttal post. That could be you in six months or a year from now if you hire this guy.
So he’s speaking about me, he says “Author is unsuccessful and disgruntled lawyer and that not eligible to
practice law.”
Not true.
Like most of his facts, he is incorrect because he speaks without knowing what he’s talking about -
I’m not only practicing, I’m very popular with my clients and have recovered hundreds of thousands of dollars
for them. NO THANKS TO BARUCH COHEN!
Here’s the State Bar website showing my license is ACTIVE. That means I can practice law in California.
Here’s a picture of my license. Says “ACTIVE”. That means I am working as an attorney in California.
Date
License Status
Discipline
Administrative Action
Present
Active
He says that the State bar and the US Depart of Justice and Trustee prosecuted me. Yes. THAT’S WHY I HIRED
HIM! TO HELP ME!
He claims to be an expert in bankruptcy, a specialist. A SUPER LAWYER. But he did NOTHING! He didn’t
even know what to do. I had to tell him. Look at the emails below. I told him what to do because
I worked in court before and I knew this judge. Read his emails with me. The case has been going on for
15 months at this point.
He says “Should listen to the client!” That’s me. I had to not only pay him, but TELL HIM WHAT TO DO.
And the U.S. Trustee testified, that this problem had come up at least 2 times a year for the last twenty years. That’s 40 times. But BARUCH COHEN had never heard of it. He did not know what to do.
The U.S. Attorney testified at the State Bar that all we had to do was explain and say it was a mistake. I must have emailed this attorney BARUCH COHEN a hundred times TELLING HIM THAT
Of course, all things he’s saying against me now is what he was hired to prevent from happening. THAT’S WHY I HIRED
HIM! Bur rather than do something and work the case, he just sat back did nothing. He just did
whatever the opposing lawyers wanted. No fight in this guy. He let it drag on for a year and a half until the judge
was sick of the case, and I’m the one who told him what to do because he was to stupid and lazy to figure it out,
and I knew that judge because I had worked for him.
He even sent an email to me – see attached – saying he should listen to the client == because I’m the
one who told him what to do. BUT HE’S SUPPOSED TO BE THE “BANKRUPTCY EXPERT”. THAT’S WHAT HE’S GETTING
PAID FOR!
Here’s the email from him telling me I was right when I TOLD HIM WHAT TO DO!
EMAIL:
So we are meeting for an appointment at his office to discuss case, and that’s when I’m going to tell him the strategy on my plan, even though I already told him on the phone sort of….
(He doesn’t get it yet though. Have to spell it out.)
ME
to Baruch
I did not want to tell him yet until we are already underway in case he is communicating with those
followers.....
.
Baruch
to me,
Then I won't tell him yet
ME
to Baruch
I’m done early
Did you tell him?
Baruch Cohen
to me,
it's not for the judge.
it's for opc to evaluate.
(OPC = OPPOSING COUNSEL, meaning the lawyer against us.)
ME
to Baruch
Well, I thought you could bring it up in front of the judge and give him an easy out because he obviously wants to get
rid of the case and that way he can work the opc for you, right?
Baruch Cohen
to me,
Proper protocol is to offer it to opc first.
then have the court approve it.
(See he doesn’t want to go against the opc, the enemy, opposing attorney, but I know this
judge is tired of this case and we can get him on our side)
ME
to Baruch
So can you bring up when you’re filing the motion to dismiss to opc
and then mention to judge in hearing so that he gets on board
Baruch Cohen
to me,
Perhaps,
Let's see how today's hearing goes
(He’s still skeptical)
LATER THAT DAY
Baruch Cohen
To me
YOU'RE BRILLIANT the Court bought it. please call me matter continued
ME
to Baruch
I am in depo
will call when done
SO SEE IT WAS ME WHO FINALLY FIGURED OUT WHAT TO DO. DID HE EVER DO ANYTHING ON THIS CASE??
NO. HE DID NOT RESEARCH IT. HE DID NO DISCOVERY. HE DID NOT SUBPOENAS. HE DID NO DEPOSITIONS.
HE DID NOTHING. HE DID NOT EVEN ATTEND ALL THE HEARINGS. SAID HE WAS SICK.
HE DID IT ON THE PHONE. GREAT! YEAH, THAT’S A GREAT WAY TO SPEAK TO OPC AND RESOLVING THE
CASE, TO BE ON THE PHONE WITH THE JUDGE INSTEAD STANDING IN THE ROOM LIKE THE OPC WAS.
THIS GUY IS BAD, BAD, BAD NEWS.
But the main reason, listen to what he says about a client. A person like me who
comes to him with a problem who needs help. Does he help me? No. Does even know
how? No. Read his email. I told him what to do.
After 15 months because he had not done anything. We finally settle it and it still takes 2
More months to wrap it up.
NOW LISTEN HOW HE SPEAKS ABOUT ME, THE GUY, HE WAS SUPPOSED TO HELP. THAT’S
WHY I HIRED HIM. BECAUSE HE WAS AN EXPERT. AND HE COULD HELP.
SOME EXPERT! SOME SPECIALIST. THIS IS WHAT HE PUTS ON HIS EMAIL. ISN’T TRUE,
THOUGH, BECAUSE THAT COULD BE YOU NEXT
You go to him with a problem, HE WILL MAKE IT WORSE AND THEN
BLAME YOU!
But if he will say all these negative things against me, that just more proof. That just shows
how he really thinks about his clients and why he never made any progress on the case.
“ARE YOU REALLY THINKING ALL THESE NEGATIVE THINGS ABOUT YOUR CLIENTS, BARUCH?”
He tells everybody else what he’s supposed to keep confidential, stuff about his client.
So he won’t fight against the lawyers on the other side. But he’ll fight with his own client.
So there’s plenty of other “bankruptcy experts”, “bankruptcy specialists, right?
DON’T HIRE HIM. YOU’LL REGRET IT! I DO!

THIS POST IS CATEGORICALLY FALSE...
AUTHOR: BARUCH - (United States)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, February 14, 2018
The author of this poster containing a bad review, is an unsuccessful and disgruntled lawyer.
He has been disciplined by the State Bar of California, has been suspended (twice), and is not presently eligible to practice law.
He's been charged by the State Bar with 6 counts of misconduct: 2 counts of seeking to mislead a judge, 4 counts of moral turpitude, dishonesty or corruption which resulted in his suspension.
He's also been prosecuted by the US Department of Justice, Office of the United States Trustee, for lying and perjuring himself in his bankruptcy (he's filed multiple bankruptcies).
He has absolutely zero credibility, and his negative post is categorically false.
Rather thqan pay his fee, he resorted to this libelous andpathetic post.
