Helena Kempner Kobrin (born April 27, 1948) is an American Scientologist and lawyer at the firm Moxon & Kobrin, working for the Religious Technology Center, which controls the trademarks of Scientology and the copyright of the works of L. Ron Hubbard.
She received her B.A. at Hofstra University and her J.D. at Seton Hall University. She was admitted to the bar in 1978, and at the California bar in 1991.
In 1994, Kobrin and the lawfirm Bowles & Moxon were ordered to pay sanctions of $17,775 for filing a frivolous complaint in federal court against Frank Gerbode, a former Scientologist.[1]
She caused controversy in the mid-1990s when she tried to get the newsgroup alt.religion.scientology shut down, [2] and later e-mailed legal warnings to participants who had quoted as few as six lines of Scientology texts. [3]
She is married to Michael D. Kobrin.
