Neighborhood Bike Works
Supporting Our Community Through Neighborhood Bike Works: A Long-standing Collaboration
Piscitello Law has had a relationship with Neighborhood Bike Works for many years. Starting back in 2014, we supported this Philadelphia-based organization and were thrilled to be recognized with a signed kit by the NBW members (image below). 
More recently, we have worked together in collaboration with the annual Philly Bike Expo. NBW runs the free Bike Parking Valet so that visitors to the two-day Bike Expo can safely park their bikes indoors. Piscitello Law is thrilled to underwrite this service and support NBW in this unique collaboration. NBW has great visibility on the ground floor of the convention center, and they are generally the first few folks that bike expo visitors greet when attending the expo.
