CohenMalad, LLP

When looking for a personal injury attorney, Jeff Hammond is the attorney to use. He’s knowledgeable and is there is answer any and all questions you have throughout the process. Jeff and his paralegal, Amanda May, made the process as painless as possible The team checked in often to give case updates and check the status of my care. They are incredibly prompt. I highly recommend Cohen & Malad for your legal needs.

Brett B. Thomas and his entire team are outstanding. From the beginning they were professional, knowledgeable, and extremely responsive. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I understood each step of the process. What impressed me most was how hard they worked and how organized their office is. Brett and his team genuinely care about their clients and it shows in the way they handle cases. I highly recommend Brett B. Thomas to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy attorney.

After a very bad week spent at an inpatient mental health facility, I wrote a detailed account of my experience and took it to a lawyer (not Cohen Malad) who read it, sympathized, but essentially said it likely wasn’t worth my time or money, that the case would take years to pursue. I went away from that meeting discouraged, left my account in a file, and went on with life. A few years later, my wife showed me an article: the facility I’d been “treated” at was being sued. The article encouraged others who’d had similar experiences to reach out to Cohen Malad. I sent my account to them via email, really only hoping to offer a corroborating experience that might help the woman from the article, my goal simply being to help get the facility shut down so they wouldn’t continue harming others. To my surprise, Skyler from Cohen Malad reached out right away, told me they thought they had a case, and asked if I’d like to pursue it. I was wary about getting back into it - I was much better now, had found competent care and therapy - but Skyler and my wife encouraged me. A year or so later, I came away with a small settlement, and - much more important - the facility had been shuttered, in no small part due to the lawsuits Cohen Malad had filed against them on mine and others’ behalves. What’s more, I never had to step foot into a courtroom. Cohen Malad did all the work. All I had to do was gather all my materials, answer some questions, and wait. Yes, Cohen Malad got me money, but more than that, they got me justice. After years of trying to get someone to hear my story, they stepped up, listened, and made the facility and the courts listen too. My voice mattered. My experience was valid and it wouldn’t continue to happen to others. Thank you, Cohen Malad, for helping me believe in the power of small voices again.

I was referred to CohenMalad almost 20 years ago. In that time, my attorney Julie and her legal aid Tonya have helped me countless times. I highly recommend CohenMalad. I'm hoping I don't need legal advice in the future, but if I do.....CohenMalad is my only option. I'm that confident in their legal experience.

Chad and Skyler were great to work with very knowledgeable and fast💯

I needed a family attorney during Thanksgiving week for an urgent matter. After researching top family attorneys in Indianapolis, I contacted five offices—Cohen & Malad, LLC was the only one to respond promptly. Tara reached out, listened carefully to my situation, and was confident in handling my case. She was thorough, communicative, and ensured I understood every step. Tara worked diligently with opposing counsel to reach a mutual agreement, and I am 100% satisfied with the outcome. As someone who works at one of the largest law firms in Indianapolis (though not in family law), my expectations were high. Tara exceeded them with her expertise, professionalism, and dedication. If it were possible, I would gladly have Tara at our firm as she is a great attorney and valuable asset —her talent and commitment are truly exceptional. I have great respect for Tara and the team at Cohen & Malad. I will recommend them to anyone needing a family attorney. Thank you, Tara, for your outstanding work and compassion—my family received the best possible outcome, and we are truly grateful.

In 2024 I went into Options Mental Health facility seeking help and was held against my will along with seeing a ton of other horrible atrocities. To say the least, I came out more traumatized than when I went in. Because of how I was treated I began looking for ways to bring their illegal actions to light! I came across Cohen and Malad and the lawsuit against Acadia and the Options facility. I called them to make sure they knew about what I saw in there and how I was treated to validate their current suits against Acadia. The gentleman I spoke with said they would review and potentially be in touch. I worked with Chad and Skyler. They set realistic expectations, answered all questions, and responded promptly to any calls, emails, and texts. Not to mention the way they handled every overly emotional moment I had was incredible. Dear Chad and Skyler, thank you. From the bottom of my heart. You guys made this horrific situation mindless for me. The Birthday cards and Christmas cards were an incredibly thoughtful touch. I hope to never need you again, but if the worst happens you’ll be my first call. Sincerely, thank you all. -Ashley

I'm so grateful to Skyler for making a scary process easy. I felt heard and valued, and could not ask for a better experience!

I had an outstanding experience with CohenMalad and can’t recommend them highly enough. From my very first call with Greg Laker and his team, they took the time to truly listen, answered my questions with patience, and made sure I felt supported and informed throughout the process. Greg and his team explained complex legal issues in a clear, easy to understand way and consistently advocated for my best interests with professionalism and integrity. It was clear they genuinely cared—not just about the case, but about me as a person. Their compassion, dedication, and professionalism made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. I couldn’t recommend CohenMalad, particularly Greg, Jodie, and Andi, more highly. Thank you for the exceptional support!

I would highly recommend Cohen & Malad; Jeff Hammond handled my case with the utmost competence. He was very professional, great to get along with, knowledgeable and any time I had a question he would explain it in a straightforward way. His paralegal, Amanda May, was great to work with as well. She was super prompt at replying everytime I would reach out, and very friendly! Overall just a real nice person. If you’re reading this review right now, looking for an attorney, you should give them a call. No question.

Chad was awesome in helping and giving advice and clear understanding of my situation. With this team I knew things would go positively and it did I can’t thank them enough!

Gregory Laker, Laurel Gilchrist and Donovan Smith took on a complex and messy case. They handled it with professionalism and care. They brought closure when I didn’t think it was possible. I cannot recommend these attorneys enough.

Jeff Hammond and Amanda are a great team. They took on my automobile accident case after the opposing insurance company peppered me with threats and requests, the most important of which were false and illegal, even though their client was clearly at fault. Immediatly after they were on the case, the calls ended, and I could focus on my recovery. In the end, they got me the best possible settlement with the least possible hassle. I can't thank them enough for helping me through my case.

During an extremely difficult time in my life, I contacted CohenMalad, LLP for advise and their expertise. They were very attentive, kind, professional and most of all honest. They were able to settle my case without my going to court and I am extremely satisfied with the end result. A special thank you to Chad Bradford and Jodi Bennett for all of their kindness, patience and hard work.

My personal injury case was handled extremely well by attorney Jeff Hammond and his paralegal, Amanda. Despite medical complications that extended the timeline, Jeff provided candid, balanced assessments of my claim and demonstrated deep knowledge of personal injury law. Both Jeff and Amanda were consistently responsive, and their reassuring updates kept me informed throughout. We ultimately reached a settlement, and I’m very pleased with the outcome. I would recommend Jeff without hesitation

Attorney Justin Hammond and Paralegal Amanda May were wonderful in our personal injury case. They made the whole process incredibly quick and smooth and really fought for us

My intake experience was highly disappointing despite notifying the representative that I was in a forward facing position and requested that the remaining questions be emailed to me therefore the intake was abrupt and cut short. The firm prematurely declined representation without getting the full context of my complex case demonstrated the inflexibility and accommodation in the initial process.
