Lori Cohen Secures Ninth Consecutive Spot on Top 10 Women in Litigation

The recognition adds to a banner year for Cohen, who was recently inducted into the Benchmark Litigation Hall of Fame and featured on Forbes’ inaugural 2026 list of America’s top women lawyers. Her reputation is built on a track record of 58 defense verdicts, often involving pharmaceutical and medical device litigation where she serves as national counsel. Peers and clients frequently rely on her ability to take over cases as lead trial counsel in challenging jurisdictions on the eve of trial.

Beyond her individual courtroom successes, Cohen plays a central role in shaping the strategy of Greenberg Traurig. She co-chairs the firm’s Global Litigation and Trial Practices, overseeing a team of more than 800 attorneys worldwide. Her leadership also extends to the specialized Pharmaceutical, Medical Device and Health Care Litigation group, which she built from the ground up to include over 100 lawyers across 30 offices.
