I felt taken care of.

I was unfortunately hurt in an auto accident. Although initially I was going to handle it on my own, I was given some good advice and was referred to Frank. He took care of everything! Yes, it was stressful and yes, it was time consuming but, the DiCosola team fought for me and my claim. I’m very for...tunate to have recovered and to have had Frank on my side!

The Attorney Team to help you

Mr. Dicosola and his team addressed my auto injury case professionally and efficiently. I was not a person who wanted to use an attorney, but as time progressed and as the insurance companies reached a point where they were wanting to settle and I was no where near done with medical bills, I felt I ...had no choice but get an attorney. The first attorney I contacted did not want my case. From the first time I met with Frank and his team members, they were reassuring, helpful and comforting with their knowledge and understanding. Once I hired them, I was able to get back to my life and focus on getting better because they were taking care of the legalities and headaches of dealing with the auto insurance companies. They have the knowledge and understanding of how to handle these cases. I really did not want to go to court, but as the Dicosola team was gathering information to work with the insurance companies, they were also putting together a court case should that be needed. It would be ready to go when the time came and options were exhausted. Should it come to having to go to court, they would not need to go back and start at the beginning to build the case. They kept me informed as the insurance companies responded and advised and guided me when there were decisions to be made. They were thorough and explained why this or that might be the best course of action. Between office meetings there was communication via email, once again keeping me informed of progress. I had been told by NUMEROUS people that these things take YEARS. Within 6 months my case was resolved and even with the pandemic, they wrapped up the details and we completed the final paperwork less than 2 months later. (It would not have taken that long had places not been closed due to the pandemic.) My only regret is that I did not call the Frank Dicosola office the day of the accident. I would have saved myself a lot of stress and anxiety in trying to work with the insurance companies by myself. God forbid I need an attorney again, but if I do, I will not hesitate to call Frank Dicosola. I highly recommend using the Frank Dicosola team for your attorney needs. You will be glad you did.

Family vibe

I was recently involved in a multiple car collision last year. A first time unfortunate experience for me. I didn't know what to do, who to talk to or where to go. However, a close friend of mine recommended Frank and let me tell you, it was the best decision to let Frank and his team handle my perso...nal injury case! Throughout the whole process I was kept informed in every aspect! A real family vibe with Frank and his whole team! I sincerely can say they made me feel a part of the family. I Couldn't be more satisfied! All in all, if you or a loved one have went through the stress of an auto accident, look no further! Go see Frank and his team of professionals to get you the compensation you deserve!

Mr & Mrs

We had a very pleasant experience with Atty Frank Dicosola and his staff in their handling of our car accident case. From our first meeting where he explained the course of action they will undertake, to the update and progress of the case in the months that followed, and finally to its closing , we... were very much satisfied with their service. We highly recommend them to friends and family.

A Savvy, Smart, and Successful Legal Team!

My incident occurred almost exactly two years ago (April 2017). At that time, I was very skeptical of litigation – and reluctant to pursue any recourse. However, I eventually developed respect for, and trust in, this firm. Mr. DiCosola is supported by an outstanding team who were dedicated to ensurin...g progress on my behalf – even after our opponent filed an initial Chapter 11. Mr. DiCosola was personally in touch with every aspect, every detail, of my legal matter. He is obviously a legal-detail taskmaster! I appreciated this, as well as his team's prompt and professional response to all my communications. I believe it was their courteous, firm and persistent teamwork on my behalf that won the day. Highly recommend!
