Top Notch
I highly recommend Knafo Law Offices for any injury or accident litigation. Attorney Jerry Knafo is honest with you right from the start. He shares his down to earth attitude and approach, his fees, and his expectations. After your first meeting, you know that he is on your side and is willing to fight for your settlement. Your case will be handled in a caring and professional manner by everyone in the office. Christine Moser is a gem. She is thorough and dedicated, prompt and friendly, always there to answer any questions and guide you through the process. Jerry and his team negotiated an incredible settlement for us, beyond our expectations. I know it was Jerry’s knowledge, experience and skills which secured such a successful outcome.

Look nowhere else!
Jerry Knafo and his staff are fantastic. Out of all of the lawyers I reached out to - he was not only the most personable, but also was the only attorney to believe in my case ( and did he perform well? he 100% exceeded my expectations). Easy, simple, direct and completed quickly! Ps. His paralegal Melissa, is utterly the best!

Dog bite
Jerry has helped my family in the past and when I received a phone call at work that my daughter had been in a near fatal accident the only thing on my mind was my little girl and the last thing I was thinking about was getting a lawyer but I knew that I needed one that I could trust and that would do right by my family and the only logical choice at that point in time was knafo law

Best in the Business
Attorney Knafo and his team are the best in the business. He treats you like family, takes the time to listen to your concerns, and does his due diligence to make sure you leave satisfied. Even if Jerry is not able to help you himself, he will point you in the right direction of someone that can. Jerry is not only a phenomenal attorney, but he is a great friend and someone you want on your side! Best believe that you are in the right hands with Jerry.

Personal Injury
Had a great experience with this attorney. He is very easy and pleasant to talk to and takes his time to listen. He offered me free consultation and fought for my case without backing out. I hope I won't have to deal with any person injuries in the future, but he is definitely the attorney I will go to if needed and refer family/friends. Thank you for helping me out Knafo Law Offices.

FANTASTIC ATTORNEY
I originally worked with Attorney Jerry Knafo about 9 years ago. He and his team, especially Christine Moser, have been so helpful to both me and my family during some of our most difficult times throughout the years. I admire Attorney Knafo and his hard work and impeccable ability to empathize with his clients in order to maximize their deserved and desired results. He gives great advice and is a great man in general. Both Christine Moser and Jerry Knafo were both patient with me, and understanding of my needs and I couldn't have asked for better service. If you need an attorney. I highly recommend Knafo from personal experience 10/10. He does what the other guys can't for us hard working citizens of PA. Thank you again !!

Jerry Knafo is the attorney you’ve been looking for!!!
Looking for a fabulous, personable attorney? Search no more!! Jerry Knafo is truly amazing. My husband and I came to him after a devastating medical incident. At the point I came to him I felt hopeless, lost and truly heartbroken. Jerry immediately made me feel the hope I should have had all along. He guided me every step of the way! I truly admire his wisdom. He is absolutely good at what he does! So good that he was able to help me get a full (very large) refund for money that my husband and I had paid for multiple medical procedures that were carried out incorrectly. I can’t say enough kind words he made such a bad situation right! I am forever grateful. In addition his office staff is amazing! April and Melissa are so pleasant it was always a pleasure calling into the office.

I would recommend him to everyone!
Jerry Knafo and his team were very professional, kind and trustworthy. Jerry made me feel as though he cared about me and not just my case. He was able to go above and beyond to get me a settlement that I didn’t think I would be able to receive!
