At Kogan & DiSalvo Personal Injury Lawyers, we are dedicated to serving the close-knit community of Lauderdale Manors in Fort Lauderdale, FL, a neighborhood known for its residential charm and proximity to major thoroughfares like Northwest 9th Avenue and Interstate 95. Lauderdale Manors faces significant traffic risks due to its location near busy roads, with Broward County reporting over 41,000 crashes in 2023, according to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. Intersections like Northwest 9th Avenue and Sunrise Boulevard are particularly hazardous, with frequent violations of Florida Statute 316.075, which mandates obedience to traffic signals, leading to collisions.
Additionally, Florida Statute 316.193 prohibits driving under the influence, yet DUI-related crashes remain a concern near I-95, contributing to injuries and fatalities. Our experienced personal injury attorneys understand the challenges accident victims face in Lauderdale Manors and are committed to helping you pursue justice and compensation.
Kogan & DiSalvo handles a wide array of personal injury cases, each with specific circumstances where you can seek damages for injuries caused by negligence. Below, we outline these case types, explain when you can sue, and highlight how Florida traffic laws support liability claims.
Car accidents often result from speeding, distracted driving (e.g., texting, banned under Florida Statute 316.305), or running red lights, violating Florida Statute 316.075. You can sue if another driver’s negligence causes a crash, or if defective vehicle parts or poor road maintenance contribute. Our Fort Lauderdale car accident lawyers will collect police reports, traffic camera footage, and witness statements to prove fault, negotiate with insurers to recover your medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Motorcycle crashes frequently occur when drivers violate Florida Statute 316.209 by failing to check for motorcyclists during lane changes. You can sue if a negligent driver, defective motorcycle component, or unsafe road condition causes your injuries. With Florida reporting high motorcycle fatalities, our attorneys will use crash analysis and expert testimony to establish liability and secure your compensation.
Truck accidents may stem from driver fatigue or improper loading, violating Florida Statute 316.302’s commercial vehicle rules. You can sue the driver, trucking company, or loader if their negligence causes a crash. Our truck accident lawyers will review driver logs and maintenance records to identify liable parties, pursuing damages for severe injuries.
Delivery Truck Accidents
Delivery truck accidents often occur due to rushed schedules or vehicle neglect, breaching Florida Statute 316.183’s speed regulations. You can sue if a driver’s or company’s negligence causes your injuries. We’ll analyze delivery logs and vehicle records to prove fault, ensuring compensation for your losses.
Tow Truck Accidents

Our team will investigate company protocols to hold responsible parties accountable, fighting for your damages.
Rideshare accidents involving Uber or Lyft may arise from driver distraction or aggressive driving, violating Florida Statute 316.1926. You can sue the driver, company, or another negligent party if their actions cause your injuries. Our lawyers will tackle complex insurance issues to secure your compensation.
Taxi Accidents
Taxi accidents can occur when drivers disregard traffic signals (Florida Statute 316.074) or companies hire unqualified drivers. You can sue if a driver’s or company’s negligence causes a crash. We’ll examine driver histories to prove liability, recovering damages for your injuries.

Boat accidents in nearby waterways may result from operator intoxication or navigation rule violations under Florida Statute 327.33. You can sue if a negligent operator causes your injuries. Our boat accident lawyers will build a claim to recover damages for medical costs and emotional distress.
Catastrophic injuries, like traumatic brain injuries, often stem from severe accidents caused by negligence, such as DUI (Florida Statute 316.193). You can sue if another’s actions cause permanent impairment. Our attorneys will collaborate with medical experts to pursue compensation for lifelong care.
Mass torts involve injuries from defective products or widespread negligence, like contaminated drugs. You can sue manufacturers or distributors if their negligence harms you. Our team coordinates with other victims’ attorneys to hold corporations accountable, securing your damages.

If you’ve been injured due to negligence, you may be entitled to economic, non-economic, and, in rare cases, punitive damages. Economic damages cover tangible losses, including medical expenses like surgeries, rehabilitation, and future care for permanent injuries. Lost wages compensate for income missed during recovery, while loss of earning capacity addresses reduced future income due to disabilities. Property damage, such as vehicle repairs, and out-of-pocket costs, like transportation, are also recoverable. Non-economic damages address intangible losses, including pain and suffering for physical and emotional distress, mental anguish for severe psychological impacts, and loss of enjoyment of life for activities you can no longer enjoy. Punitive damages, awarded in cases of gross negligence like drunk driving, punish the defendant and deter similar conduct, with no cap in Florida for impairment-related cases. Our attorneys work with experts to calculate these damages, ensuring every loss is accounted for to maximize your compensation.

George Bakalar is an exceptional hardworking attorney. He always kept me informed. Macy is wonderful, and all the other people working there are very kind and treat a client with respect.
Carol Chapman
Three years ago I had an injury while away on vacation and contacted Kogan and DiSalvo the next day. Their entire team were absolutely great from my initial call and intake, to trial date and settlement.
My attorney, George, helped me through every step of the process. He always kept me informed on the progress of the case and always responded to any questions I had.
I highly recommend Kogan & DiSalvo, a law firm that truly cares about their clients.

Goldyn CEO
The firm was great with my case.
Karen Clarke
I had the pleasure of working with Todd Baker and, more closely, Paul Sylvestri on my case. From the very beginning, Paul was not only thorough and knowledgeable, but also made me feel truly supported. He handled every step with urgency and care, ensuring that the process moved forward efficiently, far faster than I expected, given how long cases like mine can often drag on.
What stood out most was how genuinely I felt treated as a person, not just another case file. I quickly learned that most personal injury law firms make clients feel like they’re just part of a revolving door. That was never the case here. Paul and his team prioritized my well-being and worked hard to ensure I was fairly and fully compensated for my suffering.
Their professionalism, compassion, and commitment made an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I’m incredibly grateful for the outcome and the way I was treated throughout the process. I couldn’t have asked for a better team.

Jennifer was amazing throughout the whole process.
carol rodriguez
I was fortunate to be represented by this amazing law firm after a car accident, and I have nothing but gratitude for their work. From the very first contact, they demonstrated professionalism, empathy, and a genuine commitment to resolving my case in the best possible way.
I want to especially highlight Stephany Herrera, who was my first point of contact. From the beginning, she was open, attentive, and truly listened to me. Thanks to her, I was connected with attorney Paul Silvestri, who, along with the entire team, handled my case with excellence, keeping me informed every step of the way.
Thanks to their dedication and hard work, my case was successfully resolved. I highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you again to the entire team for your support and commitment.
Rachel Wilson
The number one characteristic I liked about this firm was the communication. Every member of team was pleasant to talk to. Having access virtually was awesome with all video explanations about the process. The team worked well together to settle my case. I wish I knew every team members name. Thank You team for your hard work and effort. I can say my medical bills are paid and my case settled. Thanks Again for being a reputable organization.
James Pinto
Absolutely astonishing to work with. Not only has every question I’ve asked been answered, everyone has made everything in the process very pleasing!
Scott Solomon
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.

Trust the Process – Outstanding Team, Remarkable Results
Working with Kogan & DiSalvo was one of the best decisions I could’ve made—and a huge part of that was thanks to Tiffany Fanelli. From start to finish, she and the team were knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely committed to helping me through every step of the legal process.
You really have to trust the process. It can be slow, and at times, it might feel like nothing is happening—but behind the scenes, your team is working hard. If you have questions, ask. If you’re not sure what to do, ask. That open communication made all the difference for me, and it helped me stay informed and confident the entire way through.
I can’t thank Tiffany and the firm enough for their hard work and support. Their patience, professionalism, and attention to detail led to an outcome that exceeded my expectations.
One more thing—if you don’t have UM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage, get it. Too many drivers out there are uninsured, and protecting yourself with UM coverage is essential. I’ve learned how crucial it is, and I hope others will too.
Highly recommend Kogan & DiSalvo, and especially Tiffany Fanelli, for anyone needing a reliable and compassionate legal team. Thank you all for All your hard work.
