Cohen Feeley Altemose & Rambo

What Cohen Feeley Altemose & Rambo does

Cohen, Feeley, Altemose, Berg & McKarski (formerly Cohen Feeley Altemose & Rambo) is a plaintiff-side litigation firm founded in 1975 by Martin D. Cohen as a solo practice in the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. The firm has grown to nine attorneys and a dozen-plus support staff across four physical offices in Bethlehem, Whitehall, Allentown, and Easton, and handles cases across Eastern Pennsylvania (including Northampton, Lehigh, Monroe, Carbon, Philadelphia, Bucks, Berks, Montgomery, Chester, Lackawanna, and Luzerne counties) as well as Central/Western Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Practice is organized around three core service lines: personal injury (vehicle accidents, premises liability, construction accidents, products liability, medical malpractice, and wrongful death), workers' compensation, and Social Security Disability (SSD/SSI), with a dedicated union-member legal services track operated through designated-counsel relationships with Teamsters Local 773 and the Lehigh Valley Labor Council.

The firm operates on a contingency-fee model — clients pay no fee unless there is a recovery — and offers free initial consultations across all offices. Marketing and lead generation are anchored by union referral pipelines, multi-decade community sponsorships (Boys & Girls Club, Special Olympics, Veterans Leadership Summit, Folds of Honor), educational content marketing across a wide range of accident-vertical resource pages, and an unusually strong portfolio of third-party recognitions including U.S. News Best Law Firms (2025, 2026), Best Lawyers, Super Lawyers, Million Dollar Advocates Forum, ABA Bar Register Preeminent Lawyers, and the National Trial Lawyers Top 100.

Technically and structurally, the firm is a professional services partnership rather than a technology platform; the underlying stack is described as legal case management and client communication systems without proprietary technology components, no external funding, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed AI/ML capability. In April 2026, the firm was renamed from "Cohen Feeley Altemose & Rambo" to "Cohen, Feeley, Altemose, Berg & McKarski" to formalize the inclusion of next-generation partners Alexis Berg-Townsend and Michael J. McKarski as named partners, reflecting planned succession and bench expansion. Cumulative client recoveries exceed $1 billion across the firm's history, including a $95 million highest verdict and $120 million recovered in the past five years alone.
