The Cochran Firm

The Cochran Firm stands among the nation’s premier plaintiffs’ litigation practices, known for legal excellence, ethical advocacy, and strategic representation. Founded more than 50 years ago, the law firm has grown into a powerful national presence with offices across the United States. Its legacy is closely tied to founding partner Johnnie L. Cochran, Jr., whose influence shaped a culture grounded in skill, preparation, and justice. Today, the firm remains committed to delivering high-quality legal counsel to individuals and families facing serious legal challenges.

The Cochran Firm handles complex civil litigation across a wide range of practice areas. The law firm represents clients in personal injury, auto and truck accidents, wrongful death, medical malpractice, civil rights and police misconduct, product and drug liability, environmental and toxic exposure claims, class actions, mass torts, nursing home abuse, and complex commercial litigation. Select criminal defense matters are also accepted. With more than $30 billion recovered in verdicts and settlements, the firm has secured numerous results exceeding $100 million, along with hundreds of multimillion-dollar recoveries. These outcomes reflect deep trial experience and disciplined case strategy.

The Cochran Firm approaches each matter with detailed preparation and strong national resources. Attorneys collaborate across more than 40 regional offices, combining local knowledge with broad litigation strength.
