Review Jerry Knafo

Excellent experience with Jerry and his team

Posted by

Contacted Knafo Law Offices online for new wills, POA, etc. Heard back quickly and because of Covid we were happy to have our first meeting over the phone. Jerry is knowledgeable, easy to work with and professional yet friendly. He guided us through not always comfortable end-of-life decisions and made recommendations that were helpful and made sense. His staff is friendly and efficient. Within days our documents were completed and signed. Excellent experience with the Knafo team.

Great Results

Posted by

We had a consultation and hired Mr. Knafo after my wife was struck by a vehicle. We have been working with this firm for just over two years and the end result was better than we could have hoped for. Honestly, could not be happier with the service and assistance we received from Mr. Knafo and his team. We’re especially thankful to Dawn who was our primary POC throughout this process. Overall, would highly recommend for anyone seeking counsel related to injury matters.

Excellent Job !

Back in 1982 my Father had passed away and that was when I met Attorney Jerry R Knafo. Attorney Knafo helped my Mother and our family through a difficult time. He helped us get answers on what had happened to our Father. In December of 2019 I found myself in the need of an attorney after a severe fall. My first thought was to contact Attorney Knafo. After the initial consultation I felt confident he was going to help me. Throughout the time we worked together, everyone at your law firm was kind. My injury made it difficult for me to leave my home, so Melissa was sure to email and call me every time there was a new development, I cannot thank you enough for the amazing treatment you gave me. I hope that I am never in need of an attorney again, but if I am, I will contact Attorney Knafo for assistance.

Thank you

Attorney Knafo and his staff helped our family navigate a very emotional and difficult lawsuit after my mother was killed by a reckless driver. Not only did he fight for our case and deliver us the maximum insurance possible he emotionally helped us through the criminal part of our case and we are forever grateful. Thank you!

I had a great experience with Knafo law offices. When I initially had an issue, Jerry was speedy to contact me and hear what the issue was. He helped me every step of the way and was honest and forthcoming about the situation. I will definitely use him again in the future if ever needed and am thankful he was able to help me out with the most favorable outcome possible! I highly recommend Jerry Knafo!
