Personal Injury
For over 60 years, the lawyers at Saporito, Falcone, & Watt have provided assistance services to individuals injured as a result of someone else’s actions or omissions. If you or your loved ones have been injured in an automobile accident, tractor trailer accident, slip-and-fall, or any other tort claim, we would be glad to represent your interests.
We understand how difficult it is to deal with the physical, emotional, and financial issues of being injured in an accident, and will advocate vigorously to help you recover what you lost. We pride ourselves on providing personalized services alongside aggressive and effective representation. Most importantly, we are more than willing to represent you on a contingency fee basis – we won’t receive any reimbursement until you receive a settlement.
Having collected millions of dollars against insurance companies, our firm has the resources, knowledge and ability to make sure that you are compensated for your injuries.
Criminal Defense
We’ve handled a wide variety of criminal matters ranging from summary traffic citations to death penalty homicide cases. Given the potential for long prison sentences and large penalties, it is imperative that you have experienced criminal defense attorneys on your side to protect your rights.
DUI (Driving Under the Influence): In Pennsylvania, driving under the influence is a serious offense that can lead to mandatory incarceration. We have over 30 years of experience in keeping our clients out of jail and minimizing their financial liability. Contact us today if you were recently charged with a DUI.
Felony / Misdemeanor Cases: Criminal defense is highly complex – most felony charges carry with them the potential for lengthy prison sentences, and some misdemeanor charges, which otherwise do not appear serious, could lead to incarceration. You need experienced attorneys on your side to protect your rights, and with hundreds of felony cases, multiple murder cases and thousands of misdemeanor cases successfully litigated for our clients, we have both the expertise to succeed and the personal dedication you deserve during this difficult time.
Traffic Citations: Most people believe that the only implication for a traffic citation is a financial fine. Unfortunately, our law requires that certain traffic citations result in the temporary or permanent suspension of your driver’s license. If you’ve recently received a traffic citation, contact us to get the representation you need to ensure your driving privileges aren’t adversely affected.
Expungements: In November, 2016, the Pennsylvania Legislature amended the Pennsylvania expungement law to allow for the expungement or sealing of records for most Misdemeanor 2 and Misdemeanor 3 offenses if an individual meets certain criteria. This new law will help individuals seal their minor criminal records and ultimately help individuals obtain employment. At Saporito, Falcone & Watt we have familiarity with this new law and are prepared to help clients seal their record. Contact us today to get the process started.
