FeganScott Expands Legal Team Across the Nation
Recently, FeganScott took a significant step in enhancing its legal practice by welcoming four talented attorneys and a paralegal to its expanding workforce. The firm is excited to announce the opening of new offices in Pennsylvania while furthering its recently established presence in the D.C. area.
New Additions to the Firm
Leading the charge in Philadelphia is attorney Kyle Jacobsen, who joins as a senior associate. His extensive experience handling a range of complex civil and criminal matters will undoubtedly be a significant asset to the firm. In addition to Jacobsen, attorneys Nicolette Wolfrey and Ashali Chimata will be working as associates in the D.C. office, alongside staff attorney Barbara Moran and paralegal Carlye Abitbol.
Kyle Jacobsen's Background
Kyle Jacobsen brings nearly a decade of diverse legal experience to FeganScott. He has a solid history of litigation in areas such as catastrophic medical malpractice, product liability, and wrongful death. His legal journey includes working at Ross Feller Casey, LLP, where he honed his skills in some of the most challenging legal arenas. Jacobsen is a proud graduate of Temple University's Beasley School of Law and Penn State University's Smeal College of Business.
Nicolette Wolfrey's Experience
Nicolette Wolfrey previously practiced at Venable in Washington, D.C., where she represented clients in both federal and state litigation.

She earned her Juris Doctor from the University of Virginia School of Law, with her academic background further supported by a Bachelor of Arts in Government and Politics from the University of Maryland.
Ashali Chimata: A Promising Addition
Joining Wolfrey in the D.C. office is Ashali Chimata, who previously served as a law clerk for the Honorable Robert E. Grossman of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York. Chimata's education from William & Mary Law School and her Bachelor’s degree from Texas A&M University in International Affairs make her an excellent fit for the firm’s litigation team.

Barbara Moran joins FeganScott's staff attorney team, specializing in large document set analysis for nationwide class actions. With a rich career extending over thirty years, she has garnered substantial experience in various positions at leading law firms and through her private practice.
