Recommend without hestitation!

Jerry Knafo Law Firm provided excellent representation in my personal injury case. Jerry was very knowledgeable, honest, compassionate and easy to communicate with. I trusted his guidance throughout the process, and he worked diligently to secure a higher settlement on my behalf. I would confidently ...recommend Knafo Law firm to anyone seeking strong personal injury representation.

Great negotiator, great communicator

Jerry Knafo's law firm and staff are the best! Shelby and Dawn kept me up to date on my lawsuit, worked diligently to get me the very best settlement. Jerry was a dream to work with and a great negotiator. I wouldn't use any other law firm.

Trustworthy, Confident, Excellence - and now a friend!

What can we say that has not already been said about Jerry Knafo and the Knafo Law firm? We had the pleasure of meeting Jerry, a Super Lawyer in every detail. The moment we stepped into the Knafo Law office and shared our story with Jerry, the burden from a very difficult experience was lifted. We kn...ew we made the right decision. Jerry was attentive, listened to our story with empathy and respect. He carefully explained the process and next steps. Jerry's outstanding attention to detail, brilliant strategic efforts, and professionalism are impressive and made all the difference. He truly loves and excels at his law-craft and the people he serves. Throughout the case, Jerry's legal assistant Amber, kept us informed, answering questions thoughtfully and fully. Amber's approachability and eagerness to fully support the client makes her a valuable asset to the firm. We highly recommend Jerry and the team - there is no one better!

Terrific legal team

I am so happy with the wonderful help and service provided by Knafo Law Offices. Everyone was highly responsive, thoughtful and helpful the whole way through as they handled my rather rare personal injury type of case. Nevertheless, Jerry‘s perseverance made all the difference, and we received a ver...y fair settlement. Thank you once again!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
