After working as a litigator for the law firm of Hughes Hubbard & Reed in New York, where he specialized in products liability defense for such clients as Merck and Chrysler, he came to Oklahoma in 1997 to serve as law clerk to the Honorable Robert H. Henry of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10^th Circuit. Following his clerkship, Cohen served as a staff attorney for the University of Oklahoma, focusing on employment litigation, and also worked as a freelance writer. His articles appeared in more than a dozen publications, including The American Lawyer, Men’s Journal, The Dallas Morning News and the Los Angeles Times, and he also wrote news copy for the Oklahoma City NBC affiliate, KFOR TV.
