HOW OUR LAW OFFICE WORKS

If you or someone in your family has suffered a personal injury, you should call us to discuss the circumstances of the injury. If it is felt that your injury may be compensable, you will be asked to come to the office for a more detailed interview, so that we can obtain all of the pertinent information about your claim. You should never make a decision on the  merits of your claim without the benefit of competent legal advice from an attorney.

After the initial interview, your claim will be thoroughly investigated and carefully evaluated. Both the initial consultation and the investigation of the merits of your claim are done without any fee or charge to you.

This is because our law firm handles personal injury claims on a contingent fee basis, so that the legal fee is thirty-three and one-third (33 1/3%) percent of the actual amount recovered for you, except for cases in which the award or total amount recovered exceeds the sum of Three Hundred Thousand ($300,000) Dollars, wherein the legal fee will then be reduced in accordance with the sliding scale as provided for in Connecticut General Statutes section 52-251c. While you are always responsible for the expenses  incurred in bringing your case, regardless of the outcome, you do not have to pay these expenses until the conclusion of your case.

When your case is accepted, we will immediately undertake intensive pre-trial preparation.  Pre-trial preparation may involve hiring a private investigator to determine the facts, and obtaining testimony from experts in  fields such as medicine, engineering, motor vehicle accident reconstruction and economics, who are committed to presenting a victim’s case to the jury at trial. We continually strive to prepare and present the most effective and persuasive trial presentation on behalf of our clients, using the most sophisticated technological advances, outstanding experts and intensive preparation to maximize the chances for a successful outcome of each claim.

Although most cases settle before trial, we are prepared to take meritorious cases to trial when a fair resolution cannot be reached otherwise.
