Biographical Information

Michael W. Cardamone is one of the leading workers’ compensation lawyers in Pennsylvania. As a passionate attorney for injured workers across the state, he has been serving the beautiful cities of Philadelphia, Lancaster, Allentown, and more, for nearly 25 years.

Though he started his workers’ compensation career as part of a large law firm, he soon realized the setup was not ideal for what he wanted to do. Working with injured workers every day, listening to their ordeals and fears, and seeing how complicated the system was, he knew that workplace injury cases were nuanced and layered legal matters. They required a higher level of dedicated focus and razor-sharp attention to detail that large law firms with divided concentrations just could not provide.

In response, he launched his own boutique firm, Cardamone Law, that’s one hundred percent dedicated to fighting for workers’ compensation and nothing else. Through the firm, Michael Cardamone has helped thousands of injured workers win their injury cases, receive substantial workers’ compensation case settlements, and get back on their feet with their livelihoods and dignities intact.

In recognition of his services, he has been given multiple awards, enjoys a stellar rating of 10/10 on Avvo, and served as President of the National Advocates. He is also certified as a specialist in the practice of workers’ compensation law by the Pennsylvania Bar Association and serves as Co-Chair of the Montgomery County Bar Association Workers’ Compensation Committee.

He also appears as the expert guest on the “Ask the Experts” radio show, every month in the Delaware Valley, educating others about Pennsylvania Workers’ Compensation Law.
