Areas of Practice

Auto Accident

People get hurt in personal injury accidents every day. However, not everyone receives the compensation they are due. To challenge the insurance companies, you need the services of auto accident lawyers who are skilled and experienced in dealing with the complexities of the law and these types of cases.

Pedestrian Accident

Pedestrians are at high risk when it comes to motor vehicles, as the average car weighs about 4,000 pounds. The impact of an auto collision with a human body results in serious, if not, fatal injuries. In these cases, the stakes are high, for the injured person has medical bills to pay and no income while hospitalized.

Motorcycle Accident

The driver in a motorcycle accident often has serious, if not disabling injuries. Because of this, compensation is of great concern. You need money to pay for medical costs and lost wages, as well as pain and suffering. Rely on our attorneys to pursue compensation aggressively for motorcycle accident claims. And, if an offer of settlement is not sufficient, we take the case to court.

Medical Malpractice

Everyone makes mistakes, but when someone is a medical professional, the consequences can lead to injury, trauma, or death. However, not every medical mistake is subject to malpractice. This is because certain conditions must be proven before damages can be awarded. To find out about your case, seek counsel from our experienced medical malpractice attorney in Waterbury, CT.

Slip & Fall

An injury itself does not establish liability. Extenuating factors may include the length of time a dangerous condition has existed and the responsibility for the property owner to take corrective measures. To prove this in court, you need the guidance of a capable slip-and-fall accident attorney. One of our lawyers can look at the circumstances of your case and see if premises liability exists. If so, he can then develop a strong case for settlement or litigation.

A family experiences a huge shift in many areas of life when a loved one is gone. All of a sudden, they lose someone who was there to guide, support, and care for them. This loss is taken into account in the type and amount of damages a family can receive. As the deceased loved one is no longer there to provide for the family, the personal representative of the estate can file a lawsuit to recover damages in monetary form. And, the matter must be filed within two years of the individual's death. It is wise to consult with an attorney for wrongful death when considering this type of lawsuit.
