A Firm Built Around Frank’s Personal Commitment
Frank built Piscitelli Law Firm around a deliberate choice: taking cases he believes in and getting justice for his clients.He takes an active role in investigating what happened, developing the evidence, and preparing the case for negotiation or trial. That includes investing in expert witnesses, medical analysis, and exhibits that help explain complicated injuries and how they occurred.
An insurance offer deserves careful scrutiny, particularly when an injury will affect someone for years. Frank is willing to reject an unfair offer and take a case to trial. Attorneys from across the country have brought him into their clients’ cases for that experience and commitment.

Representing People Injured in Cleveland-Area Motor Vehicle Accidents
A serious crash can leave a family dealing with surgery, missed paychecks, and uncertainty about whether life will return to normal. Choosing a lawyer means trusting someone to understand those consequences and make sure they are accounted for.
Piscitelli Law Firm represents people injured in car accidents, truck collisions, motorcycle crashes, pedestrian accidents, and rideshare accidents throughout Greater Cleveland. Frank’s work also includes fatal crashes and claims involving drivers who caused devastating harm.
In the firm’s $1.25 million motorcycle wrongful death case, witness testimony helped establish what the motorcyclist experienced before his death. That evidence mattered to the family’s claim and illustrates why a thorough investigation can make a difference. Read about the evidence behind the result.
The firm also was brought in as lead counsel in a motorcycle death case resulting in a $2.9 million settlement, where the highest offer was $500,000.
For clients seeking a Cleveland personal injury lawyer, the firm brings experience with both the circumstances of an accident and the lasting effects of the injuries.
Catastrophic Injuries and Wrongful Death
Some injuries change the course of a person’s life. A traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, severe burn, or permanent organ damage can affect the ability to work, care for children, or live independently.
Frank handles cases involving these serious injuries, where understanding future needs is essential. Medical treatment, rehabilitation, lost earning capacity, and the daily effects of a disability all deserve careful attention.
His experience with Asacol cases involving permanent kidney damage includes a settlement of $2 million and $5.8 million jury verdict. Those cases required detailed work connecting failures in medical monitoring to irreversible harm.
The firm also represents families after wrongful deaths. For a surviving spouse, child, or parent, a case is deeply personal. The firm’s’s role is to investigate the death, establish responsibility, and pursue a recovery that accounts for the family’s loss.
Serious Injuries on Unsafe Property
Piscitelli Law Firm also handles slip and fall accidents, dangerous property conditions, dog bites, and other incidents that cause serious injuries.
A fall can leave someone with a fractured hip or a permanent back injury. A dog attack can require surgery and leave lasting scars. These cases deserve an investigation that takes both the cause of the incident and the injury seriously.
Through its Mentor personal injury practice, the firm helps injured people pursue accountability and compensation for harm caused by others. The same attention to evidence and preparation guides its work across Northeast Ohio.
