About Salvatore
Biography
I have been an Attorney since 1991 and been practicing in the field of Workers' Compensation since then. That experience exposed me to the personal injury field as well as labor and employment that entire time. When I opened my own practice in 2005, I was determined to help people in all of these fields and have been enjoying my practice ever since!
