Jeff Cohen

Although the younger generation would not recognize Jeff Cohen now, he was quite popular back in the ’80s. As a child actor oozing with charm and wit, Jeff grabbed the role of Lawrence Cohen in The Goonies, directed by award-winning director Steven Spielberg. He, later on, had roles in Family Ties, Ask Max, and Perfect Harmony.

However, Jeff realized that the show business is not for him. The child actor decided to go back to the University of California in Berkeley to finish schooling. He chose to pursue a legal career upon finding out that many of the most important figures on the business side of Hollywood had law degrees. Thereafter, Jeff took law and finished a degree at the University of California, Los Angeles, School of Law. Currently, Jeff is a partner and attorney at Cohen & Gardner, LLP, far from his childhood career.
