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:

  • Cross only at designated crosswalks and intersections

  • Walk and/or jog only on designated sidewalks and paths
  • Maintain visibility by wearing bright clothing, especially at night

You know that it is difficult to find a decent lawyer to represent you when you have been injured. It’s especially difficult to find one who isn’t just compassionate but straightforward and willing to listen when times are tough and you think you are at your wits end. This is the AMAZING TEAM of Kogan & DiSalvo. If you are looking for the BEST TEAM in the business then look no further than this firm. From start to finish everything was 100 percent transparent and I never waited more than 24 hours for a response to my calls and emails. They use a wonderful app to track your case and process as they fight for you even though the toughest of cases. I have been blessed to be represented by Dan Collins and his spectacular assistant Lauren. Even when two hurricanes were slamming into the area I was kept informed of their progress on my case. As we get ready to close this case I will always have Kogan & DiSalvo to thank for putting together such a great attorney and paralegal. This duo have gone above and beyond my expectations!!! Kudos to both Dan and Lauren. I will never hesitate to recommend this firm and I am forever indebted to the entire TEAM!!!
