I cannot say enough great things about Jay London and his outstanding team at Kogan & DiSalvo. From day one, Jay treated me with respect, professionalism, and genuine care. He took the time to explain every step of the process clearly and made sure I felt confident and informed throughout my case.
What truly sets Jay and his team apart is their dedication and responsiveness. Any time I had a question or concern, they were quick to respond and always made me feel like a priority — not just another case file. Their attention to detail, strong communication, and relentless work ethic gave me complete peace of mind.
If you are looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and truly fights for his clients, I highly recommend Jay London and the team at Kogan & DiSalvo. They go above and beyond, and I am incredibly grateful for the results and the experience.
Sincerely,
Steven Godla

I cannot say enough great things about Charles and Melissa. From start to finish, they were absolutely outstanding in handling my case. Their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were exceptional, but what truly set them apart was their genuine care and dedication. They kept me informed every step of the way, answered all my questions with patience and clarity, and made what could have been an overwhelming process feel smooth and manageable. I always felt heard, supported, and confident knowing they were on my side.
Charles was incredibly knowledgeable and strategic. His confidence and expertise gave me peace of mind throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I fully understood my options, which meant so much to me.
Melissa was equally amazing. She was compassionate, responsive, and always made me feel supported. Her attention to detail and dedication ensured that nothing was overlooked, and her kindness truly made a difference during a stressful time.
Charles and Melissa work seamlessly as a team, and their commitment to achieving the best possible outcome truly shows. If you’re looking for responsive, compassionate, and highly skilled professionals, I wholeheartedly recommend them. I’m incredibly grateful for everything they did for me.

I was in an accident in the beginning of June 2025 and I’ve just received my settlement I couldn’t be more than happy, not only because of the fact that I’m getting money, but truly because this experience, Sam and Brigit have given to me. They were more than professional and they worked so very hard to get me the best number to settle on. They kept me updated every step of the way and I knew how everything was being processed. You’d think this would be another thing added to your plate but they made my life so much easier I never had to reach out to them once they followed up with me after each and every step. I’m soooo grateful to have such an amazing attorney and Sam was the assistant I believe, but she is the glue that kept me satisfied she’s soooo amazing. All in all I am super impressed and hope nothing but the best for this establishment. If I could put 10000 stars I would!!!

Todd Baker left no doubt he was going to represent me like a family member. He not only did his duty as a lawyer representing myself and my wife. He made sure that whoever we selected to medically help us were doing the best they could for us. Todd was able to get me more than the insurance company wanted to give out. He was in the nicest manner like a pit bull during the deposition. You can feel safe knowing he is on your side.

Special shoutout to Charles, Melissa, and Ana for going above and beyond. Their professionalism, honesty, and genuine care made a stressful situation so much easier to handle.

Incredible law firm with assessable staff and lawyers just a phone call away. My case was executed in a respectable and timely manner. All details were outlined and organized for me to review before, during and after the whole process. I was kept in the loop and notified of any updates, changes and progress during my case. It does take some time but in the end I would of course use this law firm again!
