A serious accident can change your life in an instant. From medical bills to lost wages and painful recovery, the challenges can feel overwhelming. When you or someone you love is hurt, you deserve a Northampton County personal injury lawyer who understands Pennsylvania law and is committed to putting people first.
At Cordisco & Saile, we have stood up for injury victims across Pennsylvania for over 30 years. Our attorneys have recovered millions of dollars for clients while providing the guidance and compassion they need during difficult times. Whether you are pursuing a personal injury claim in Northampton County or struggling after a car accident, we are ready to protect your rights and fight for the fair results you deserve.
Every county in Pennsylvania has its own courts, judges, and juries. These local differences can shape how your case is presented and resolved. Having an attorney with strong knowledge of Northampton County and nearby communities such as Allentown and Bethlehem means you have a legal team that knows the terrain and how to adapt strategies to maximize results. In the law, local matters.
At Cordisco & Saile, our attorneys have decades of experience fighting for people injured in Pennsylvania. Founding partner John F. Cordisco and managing attorney Michael L. Saile, Jr. are nationally recognized for their results, but they also pride themselves on the personal attention they give to every client. From the first call to the final resolution, you will have a team that investigates your accident, gathers the necessary medical and financial documentation, and advocates tirelessly on your behalf.
Injury cases can take many forms, but what they share in common is the disruption they bring to your health, work, and daily life. As a trusted personal injury law firm in Northampton County, Cordisco & Saile is prepared to handle a wide range of claims for clients throughout the region. Our attorneys investigate accidents thoroughly, hold negligent parties accountable, and pursue full compensation for victims and their families.
Our practice areas include:
Unfortunately, car accidents are common across Pennsylvania, and Northampton County is no exception. In 2024, there were 110,765 reportable crashes statewide, resulting in 1,127 fatalities and 66,950 injuries. On average, that means 13 crashes occur every hour, with 183 people injured each day. These numbers reflect how frequently collisions disrupt lives and why strong legal advocacy is important after an accident.
Crashes in Northampton County often involve rear-end collisions, intersection accidents, and crashes caused by distracted or impaired driving. Each type brings challenges in proving liability and working to see that insurers provide fair compensation. Without experienced legal help, victims may face delays, denials, or settlements that don’t cover the full recovery cost.
Handling a personal injury claim without legal help may seem like a way to save time or money, but it can put your recovery at risk. Claims come with strict deadlines, detailed paperwork, and the burden of proving liability, and missing a single step can jeopardize your case.
Beyond the process itself, insurance companies are motivated to protect profits, not people. Without an attorney, victims are more vulnerable to unnecessary delays or unfairly low offers. At Cordisco & Saile, we guide clients through every stage of the process, taking on the legal burden so you can focus on healing.
Insurance adjusters often present themselves as helpful, but their priority is minimizing payouts. They may ask for recorded statements, push quick settlements, or question the seriousness of your injuries, all tactics designed to reduce what they owe.
Negotiating directly with insurers can be draining, especially while you’re recovering. Claims may drag on with repeated paperwork requests or unreasonably low offers. That’s why having an experienced attorney matters. At Cordisco & Saile, we know these strategies and push back aggressively. By handling communication and building strong evidence, we make sure insurers take your case seriously and pay what’s fair.
After a serious accident, the costs can extend far beyond the first hospital bill. Victims often face medical expenses, lost income, and the lasting toll of pain and suffering. In some cases, additional damages may be available for long-term care, emotional distress, or permanent disability.
Every case is different, and the value of a personal injury claim depends on factors like the severity of injuries, the impact on work and daily life, and the strength of the evidence. An experienced attorney can evaluate these details, calculate damages, and build a claim that reflects the full scope of your losses, whether through a personal injury settlement or lawsuit.
Our attorneys at Cordisco & Saile have recovered over $100 million for clients across Pennsylvania, and their case results demonstrate our skill and commitment to securing justice for accident victims.
Financial concerns should never stand in the way of justice. That’s why our team at Cordisco & Saile works on a contingency fee basis. You don’t pay anything up front, and you don’t owe attorney’s fees unless we win your case.
For motor vehicle accidents and slip and fall cases, our fee is 35% if the case settles before litigation and 40% if the case settles after litigation begins. These fees are only collected if we secure compensation on your behalf. In other words, if you don’t win, you don’t pay.
This system ensures that our success depends on your success. It also gives you the confidence of knowing that we are fully invested in fighting for the maximum recovery possible. If you ever have questions about how fees work, our team will walk you through every detail with complete transparency.
Choosing the right Northampton County personal injury attorney or car accident attorney can make all the difference in your recovery. At Cordisco & Saile, we are committed to guiding you through every step of the legal process and fighting for the compensation you deserve.
With decades of experience and a proven record of results, our attorneys are ready to advocate for you. Call us today at 215-642-2335 or contact us online to schedule your free consultation.

“I was in a serious accident in 2021. My injuries were new however they mimicked some of the injuries I received in a 2017 accident. After treating with 2 doctors, both who stated my injuries were permanent, I was recommended to Cordisco & Saile. My attorney, Steven DeBonis, was wonderful. He listened and guided me through the process. He worked endlessly to ensure I received a proper settlement. I am so grateful for his effort and kindness. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needed someone to fight for them. The staff was friendly, informative and helpful. They are the best legal team around. Thank you for all you have done.”
I had a slip and fall on Saturday, December 21, 2024. I waited a few days before calling Barbara’s firm and when I decided to reach out, I left a message late at night on the 23rd. First thing Christmas Eve day, Barbara calls me to let me know. She received the message and wanted to chat about my fall. She was extremely professional, detailed the process, and what they would look for in terms of backup documentation, but also instilled a sense of safety and security because she was kind, compassionate and empathetic. She gave the distinct impression that my case would be well researched thoroughly but also be done ethically without having me jump through a whole lot of extra hoops. Five stars, would highly recommend.”
“I had a car accident in January 2019. I called Cordisco and Saile. Michael Saile Jr. worked with me along with his associate Steve, and para legal Michele. They treated me with kindness and respect. I had injuries to my neck and spine. I went through months of physical therapy. The person who t- boned my car had no license, registration or insurance, therefore Mr. Saile had to put together a lawsuit against my own insurance company. I had limited tort insurance but Mr. Saile and his people fought to get me the most money that I was entitled to from my insurance company. It took four years due to the pandemic but they kept at it until they reached the maximum. I cannot thank them enough. Everyone in their office worked very hard for me. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone who has had an accident, or any legal work.”
