Kevin and his Associates namely Patrick were amazing to work with and a God send to us I. Our time of need. They especially had to work even harder during Covid 19 to make a safe way to put our troubles to a smooth and safe finish. They were caring and understanding to our personal situation in the health and well being of our son who was hit by a car. The monies they were able to retrieve are so important to our son’s new normal, new beginning. He was able to rectify medical bills as well and help us to find a way to put his monies in safe keeping of a special needs trust so he had safe access to his funds for his needs, while maintaining his forever life changing needs that will be met by assistance now and long after his monies run out. This recommendation was priceless. They are truly experienced professionals that never give up, and then theses recent uncertain times of COVID-19 they really pulled through! We are most fortunate that our son’s life was spared, but their help to give him back his life will never be forgotten! Thank you Kevin and Patrick and the rest of your team!
My daughter was in a car accident. A family member told us about Kevin. He had helped them . I called his office. His staff was professional and caring .I asked for a family meeting. Due to the accident we did not have a car. We were going to take public transportation. When Kevin called to set up the meeting I told him we would all have to take public transportation. He said he would come to our house. He did. He was so caring. He got the job done. And the final financial settlement , will help my daughter the rest of her life. Thank you Kevin!
If a company manufactures a product which is hazardous to the user, the company must be held liable for any injuries or fatalities which occurred due to the faulty product.
Examples of dangerous product injuries include:
* Eye injury/blindness
* Burns
* Disfigurement/Scarring
* Lacerations
* Brain injuries
* Spinal cord injuries
The three categories which a product liability case may fall under are:
* Defective design
* Failure to warn of a known danger
* Manufacturing defect
Misdiagnosis, failure to diagnose, surgical errors, prescription drug errors, birth injuries, failure to treat diseases, delay in treatment, and negligence are just a few examples of medical malpractice. People of all ages are at risk for medical malpractice, including children, adults, and the elderly. In severe cases of medical malpractice a patient dies as a result of the negligence by the health care provider, the patient has been the victim of medical malpractice and wrongful death.
Pennsylvania personal injury law is a deceptively short description that encompasses a vast assortment of injuries ranging from burns to spine injuries, brain injuries and wrongful death. The Philadelphia personal injury attorneys at Cherry Fieger & Marciano, LLP provide clients in Pennsylvania with representation in personal injury claims including slip trip and fall accidents, automotive or trucking accidents, construction side accidents and firearm accidents.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) there were 43,443 auto accident related fatalities in the United States in 2005, which is a slight increase from 2004. Below are just a few 2005 motor vehicle accident statistics for the U.S.:
* There were 6,159,000 auto crashes reported to law enforcement
* Approximately 2,700,000 injuries were sustained in auto accidents
* Almost 40% of traffic fatalities involved alcohol
Victims of slip and fall injuries in Pennsylvania have a strong burden of proof if they wish to show that a premises owner was responsible for their injury. In order to obtain a verdict in their favor, the plaintiff must prove to the court that they were injured and that the premises owner had a responsibility to protect them. The owner's lack of responsible care must also be proven in addition to the fact that this lack of care caused harm to the plaintiff.
Kevin R. Marciano prides himself on his knowledge of the law and procedures that apply to his cases, and is always well prepared. He has obtained multiple million dollar settlements, and concentrates his practice in the representation of catastrophically injured victims including medical malpractice, pharmaceutical liability, motor vehicle liability, wrongful death, products liability, premises liability, construction accidents, liquor liability, personal injury cases and mass tort class actions.
As a member of the Pennsylvania Association of Justice (PAAJ), Kevin R. Marciano is a frequent writer and lecturer for the organization. An officer and the 2009 President of the PAAJ Pennsylvania Association of Justice (PAAJ), he is also a member of the American Association of Justice, Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association, Delaware County Trial Lawyers Association and the Philadelphia Bar Association.
Additionally, Kevin R. Marciano is also involved with the following PAAJ committees: Chairman of the Membership Committee; Co-Chair of the Legislative Network Committee; Public Relations Committee; Vice Chairman of the Budget and Finance Committee; Fund Development Committee; Legislative Policy Committee and Long Range Planning Committee. He is also was member of the New Lawyer Section Leadership Council, serving as their chairman in the past.

Defective Product
I was injured and did not know where to get legal help. A friend told me how Kevin had helped him & his family. I am sol glad I made that call. He got back to me promptly . Set an appointment and handled everything. He is so professional. Yet very concerned. He listened to me and calmed me down. He says what he can do for you and gets it done. I am truly grateful for all his help.

personal injury matter
Mr. Marciano represented me as a personal representative of the estate of a single parent mother. The mother was killed by a drunk driver and left behind three small children. Mr. Marciano sued the bar and the drunk driver. He was able to recover all the money that was available. I was very pleased with his handling of the matter and would recommend him to others.

Didn't do his job
Found out he didn't obtain my medical records like he was supposed to, even sent back the HIPPA form not filled out. So not sure how a medical expert could look at anything if he did not have the records. Turns out I had to retrieve the records myself all while he basically did nothing for a whole year. Records have all the evidence you would need and more. Needless to say he asked me how much my case was worth who asks a person who's recovering that....now I only have a few months and case etc. is not resolved.
