Not for the people depends upon on who you are.

Jason Bristol is smart, caring, experienced, and thorough. Would recommend him to anyone.

Great experience with the firm. I had a difficult situation and Ellen Kramer lead me to a positive outcome. Ellen is professional, knowledgeable, and very responsive. I highly recommend Ellen and the law firm.

Spoke with Ellen Kramer about a case hearing I had coming up. She was referred to me by the Cleveland Bar Association who told me I could get advice and potentially find a lawyer. In this discovery call Ellen began to reprimand me for not dealing with this sooner and mentioned how she was unwilling to move things around because I need to get my act together. A simple I can't do it would have worked. But she instead felt the need to express how bad I had messed things up and never allowed me to actually explain the details and circumstances. Save yourself some time and just call a firm with lawyers who want to work and be helpful when doing so. I'm not paying someone 250+ an hr to complain that they may now have to do their job.

For nearly ten years now, I have co-counseled two class actions with the partners at CRK, primarily with Josh Cohen & Ellen Kramer. They and the entire firm are able to hold their won against any firm. Their diligence, attention to detail, legal knowledge, writing ability, and most importantly, ability to strategize and represent clients with zeal and passion, are in my opinion, unsurpassed. They are the best co-counsel I have ever had in 35 years of practice.

I had a tricky difficult hard time with employment with a big academic institute. Ellen M. Kramer is professional, practiced good approach and reached to a reasonable settlement. Highly recommended service. Furthermore, most of the work/appointments was done virtually during the COVID 19 pandemic. She knows how to handle the case.

I had the fortune of finding, and subsequently retaining, Jim Rosenthal of CRK in early 2007. My business found itself in a true "David vs Goliath" legal matter which on reflection must have seemed to have a very low percentage chance for a positive outcome. Jim and CRK nonetheless lead the charge. Armed with his superior legal knowledge and litigation skills, combined with just sheer determination, we prevailed with a seven figure victory that survived appeals through the Ohio Supreme Court. That was just the beginning of a 15 year relationship. Jim, along with Josh, Jason and Ellen(which I refer to as the "Brain Trust") , have successfully represented my businesses through several arbitrations, suits, corporate and personal. Jim will listen, assess, give you his opinion(usually straight with no chaser), and then go about the task of winning. I strongly recommend retaining CRK and then list them not in the expense, but in the asset column of your balance sheet.

I have used Cohen Rosenthal & Kramer firm in multiple lawsuits over the last few years and have found them to be knowledgeable, responsive and affordable. I recommend them to anyone needing help with civil legal matters.

Ms. Kramer is excellent!!

Courteous and very helpful

Yesterday I was on the beautiful website this firm has and called the "intake hotline" I was abruptly greetwd by Ellen who told me she was extremely busy and didn't have much time. After only listing to me for a few seconds Ellen rudly informed me that she was to busy for this and suggested that I read my employment hand book. Well Ellen I'm calling for firm for help because I have read said employment hand book and determined things aren't as they should. Had you actually listened to me i think you would have agreed. But looking at your fancy website with big talk about helping people i realized that you probably were not the correct person to address with my civil rights and disability discrimination as these aren't your areas of expertise. Bottom line not sure why you have a website that is so fancy and talks so big about fighting for whats right when you can't even do the right thing and do a proper intake call.
