Cohen and Wolf Helps Transform Bridgeport Home in 7 Days

More than 40 attorneys and staff from Cohen and Wolf participated in transforming a Bridgeport residence that had fallen into disrepair after a flood, fire and multiple burglaries into a beautiful home as part of the Emmy award-winning reality program Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. A team of designers, contractors and several hundred volunteer workers had just seven days to completely rebuild the house and transform the property. Cohen and Wolf volunteers helped with construction, site clean-up, food preparation, staffing the registration and information booths, and a variety of other jobs. They were rewarded for their hard work when they saw firsthand how the home makeover has impacted the life of a deserving family.
