“When my husband was involved in a no-fault motorcycle accident, we contacted Trantolo and Trantolo and had Attorney Adam Allegro assigned to his case, I cannot say enough about his dedication to his work. Attorney Adam took the time to always answer questions, return phone calls, and guide us through the entire process with ease. I highly recommend this law firm.
