Bio

Prior to joining Levinson Axelrod in 2012, Kathleen was an Assistant District Attorney for more than a decade in New York City. In that role, she tried numerous cases involving homicides and other violent crimes and rose to the position of Deputy Chief.

From 2006 to 2008, Kathleen was honored to serve as a Special Assistant United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York as part of the Project Safe Neighborhoods program which focused on prosecuting felons charged with weapons offenses.

Kathleen works primarily out of our Howell and Belford offices representing personal injury clients in a wide variety of accident cases. Advocating for people who have been injured in an accident has been a natural progression for Kathleen from her previous work seeking justice for crime victims.

Kathleen earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Public Affairs from the University at Albany and a Juris Doctor degree from New England Law. Kathleen is admitted to practice law in New Jersey, New York and Massachusetts. She resides in Monmouth County with her husband and children.

"I never thought I would need a Personal Injury attorney, for that matter, I never thought I would be in such a bad car accident, to no fault of my own, that I would ever need one. But that is exactly what happened to me. When it was suggested that I get an attorney, I didn’t know who I should call or who would be a good Attorney to call. When I asked around Kathleen DiGiovanni at Levinson Axelrod was recommended to me. At first I was a bit apprehensive about getting an Attorney but after meeting with Kathleen, she put me at ease. She understood what I had been going through and my concerns about the future. Kathleen was thorough in her details, she took the time to learn all about my injury, she explained the process and on how the system worked, and she was sincere. I have to say too that her office staff was very helpful and always stayed in touch with me. But most importantly, she was on my side, and it showed. If you were to tell me today that I should call a personal injury attorney, I know exactly who I would call, that call would be to Kathleen and the attorneys at Levinson Axelrod. She knew exactly what she was doing and the rest of the firm worked well with her to get the job done – for me! It is this very reason that I believe that she was able to deliver the results that we both were looking for. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Kathleen."
