And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.

Ina Cohen

Ina Cohen is an Associate in our Real Estate practice group where her work focuses on corporate law and real estate. In addition to her primary focus, she brings a wealth of experience in mergers and acquisitions, securities, business transactions, commercial law, tax, and immigration matters.

Originating from Bulgaria, Ina was licensed to practice by the Sofia Bar in 2013. She swiftly established herself as an adept attorney, advising on business transactions and real estate deals at a notable European law firm. Throughout her career in Europe, she provided counsel to both local and international clients on topics ranging from business establishment and corporate structuring to contractual negotiations and administrative responsibilities. Demonstrating her entrepreneurial spirit, Ina also founded and led PASSPORTS.BG, an initiative designed to assist foreign investors and their families in relocating to Bulgaria.

After meeting her husband, Ina relocated to Arizona. She then furthered her legal education at the Arizona State University Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law, earning her second J.D. in May 2022. During her tenure, she also had the distinction of serving as a Legislative Extern at the Arizona Supreme Court.

Outside the confines of her professional life, Ina has a passion for travel, the culinary arts – especially traditional Bulgarian dishes – attending concerts, playing tennis, and indulging in classic 80’s music.
