Grateful for the support!

Got it! Here’s a more down-to-earth and natural version: ⸻ Frank Dicosola and his team were honestly amazing to work with. They made everything so much easier and less stressful. Super responsive, super helpful, and just really good people. I felt taken care of the whole way through even under ...very stressful situations. I also want to thank Jessica & Lisa for always keeping me in the loop with things and solving problems as fast as they did! Im very grateful for Franks firm I cannot thank them enough for leading me through my first accident.

Frank and his staff made the legal process easy and were always available to answer any questions even after hours. They kept me informed during the entire process and settled my case with professionalism and provided me with a nice settlement surprise. I would highly recommend Frank to anyone in n...eed of a personal injury attorney.

Caring Attorney

This is the third time in my life I’ve had to hire an attorney to help me dispute some legal issues. The previous other two attorneys let’s just say didn’t end in my favor and left me feeling jaded with attorney’s in general. That feeling has since changed after hiring Frank DiCosola to represent me.... Both he, and his staff are wonderful people to deal with. My wife and I were involved in a automobile accident where we were rear-ended while sitting at a traffic light waiting for a ambulance to pass by someone not paying attention whilst texting on their phone. Fortunately enough neither my wife or I sustained life threatening injuries, however we both did have to undergo some physical therapy for quite sometime. The most upsetting thing to me was the damage to my classic vehicle. The at fault driver’s insurance company tried to play dirty and claim my vehicle was a total loss and that the damage exceeded the value. This was untrue! Frank and his team listened to my concerns regarding my case, what was important to me, what my expectations moving forward and were able to not only able to get me and my wife compensated for the maximum amount of the personal injury but he was able to prove my vehicle’s significant value was worth four times the amount that the insurance company tried to claim, he also was able to get them to pay the diminished value as well and was able to keep them from declaring my classic car a total loss and I was able to repair and keep my vehicle which was extremely important to me. What impressed me the most about Frank DiCosola and his team is he treated both my wife and I as people and not just a number. He took the time to listen to what I was expecting out of the case, advised us with how things would proceed moving forward and what to expect, and treated us like we were his number one priority and never hurried or rushed us out during our meetings like he had something more important to tend to. He made us feel like we were his priority and that he cared about us. I really can’t say enough good things about Frank and his team. Sometimes the legal proceedings is a slow process but if you are patient and have trust in him Frank will get you through it. This time it worked out in our favor. Thank you so much Frank for guiding us through this legal storm. You have renewed my thoughts on what a great lawyer should be! I most certainly would use Frank again and again for any legal matters that pertain to his field of practice.

Incredibly helpful team who actually cares!

Frank and his team are professional, expedient, trustworthy and overall good people. Having been in my first accident I had no idea where to start and who to ask for help. A quick Google search gave me Frank's name and I contacted the office. The entire team jumped to my rescue and made the overwhelm...ing process manageable and as painless as possible. I feel very fortunate to have had their support when I needed it most. They were in constant communication, and even recommended my chiropractor. The entire team went far above and beyond my expectations. Of course, we ended up with the outcome we all hoped for, and I owe it all to them. A huge thank you to Jessica, Emily, Rom, Christina, Donna, Frank and everyone else.

Thank you so much for everything

I couldn’t be more pleased with how Frank and his team handled my case. After my accident, I tried to handle it without representation. After numerous calls and getting the run around from not only both insurance companies but the person who hit me as well, I contacted the FD Law Team. They were wond...erful explaining everything and what the process was going to look like. It was a relief to not have to worry about the insurance aspect of this accident anymore. They took the time to answer every question (sometimes the same question twice) and in the end everything was taken care of and resolved. As someone who has never had to hire an attorney before for anything, I was initially intimidated with the idea of hiring one and what it would look like- but I am so grateful for everything they did. I couldn’t recommend them more! Thank you so much to Frank and his Team!
