Wayne has also been featured by The Washington Examiner and The Wall Street Journal, and has been described as both a “prominent” and “aggressive” personal injury lawyer. Along with being a partner at Cohen & Cohen, P.C., Mr. Cohen is a past president of the Trial Lawyers Association of Metropolitan Washington, D.C. and a current Associate Professional Lecturer of Trial Skills at the George Washington University Law School.

She also served as Assistant General Counsel for WMATA, trial lawyer for State Farm, and Managing Attorney of Hartford Insurance Company’s Staff Counsel Office in Alexandria, Virginia.

They were chosen to represent Morgan Lake, the woman whose vehicle was struck from behind and then propelled off of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.
