While you cannot control the actions of the driver of a motor vehicle, you can take precautions to make sure you and your family are as safe as possible when traveling as a pedestrian. Reduce your risk of injury by following these safe pedestrian tips:

  • Avoid texting or using an electronic device while walking or jogging
  • Cross only at designated crosswalks and intersections
  • Look both ways at all crossings. Assume a vehicle does not see you even if you have the right of way
  • Walk and/or jog only on designated sidewalks and paths
  • Maintain visibility by wearing bright clothing, especially at night

I was in a motorcycle accident and thanks to Jennifer and Charles I was able to recoup and get all the legal help I need. Without them I don’t know what I would have done. Once again thank you so much for all the help!

Every single person I dealt with at Kogan & DiSalvo, PA was professional and empathetic. I worked primarily with the team of Rachel Schrager, Esq. and Amanda Hudson, and they were terrific at keeping me in the loop, and they updated me every inch of the way. They also delivered on every promise, but they never over promised. They didn’t have to because from the get go I felt very comfortable, and I knew they would do the best job they could…and they didn’t disappoint.

5

If I had the option of choosing another firm, I would choose Kogan & DiSalvo 1000x over! The team’s efficiency, professionalism and patience was absolutely top tier. There was clear communication throughout the duration of my case and they went to ends meet to ensure I secured a positive amount in my pockets. I want to thank all my attorneys, Jessica , Charles and their associates for ensuring that mine and my brother’s motor vehicle accident case, which is usually a headache to many, was a smooth and orderly process!

This law firm handled my car accident case. They were very professional and conscientious in handling this life altering accident. The case achieved a very favorable outcome which in itself will be life altering and perhaps make up for the physical changes that have occurred. They were with me (Todd Baker, esq. and his staff including Amahnia) were involved from the start and helped navigate through my treatments and surgery. They handled ‘soup to nuts’ the entire case and did all the heavy lifting. I am very pleased and would not hesitate to recommend them.

(Translated by Google) They have provided me with very good services. I am super happy with their work.

It’s never a good experience when you’re involved in an accident. But when a firm believes in you and continues to represent your case diligently and guides you legally through the process no matter the end result you feel you entered the process with a great team.
Don’t hesitate to call and ask “ can you help me?” You will get a fair evaluation and excellent representation.

Kohan Desalvo is an exemplary professional whose commitment to guiding clients is truly commendable.

My wife and I were in a major accident. After the accident one of our big worries was our medical bills. Sam at Kogan and DiSalvo coordinated with our Drs to assure coverage and put our minds at rest. I had to have surgery which thankfully went well. I was very happy to not have any unanswered concerns during that time. The person who hit us blamed us for the accident but our dash camera showed them at fault. Tiffany our Rockstar of a lawyer proved them at fault and leveraged the insurance for the maximum settlement. She then went after our under/uninsured coverage and fought for a settlement that we could never have dreamed of. Never a doubt Tiffany and the team of Kogan and DiSalvo are the lawyers that you want on your side. Thank you again.
