Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers Opens New Office in Hartford

One of fastest-growing personal injury law firms in Connecticut now serving clients from spacious new office in historically registered building on Congress Street

Hartford, Conn. (Lexis Nexis) August 19, 2009 -- Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers, a fast-growing law firm that exclusively represents individuals who have suffered injuries, has opened a third office location in downtown Hartford.

The new office is located at One Congress Street, Fourth Floor, across the street from the Hartford Hospital. Perkins' firm occupies the entire top floor of the four-story building, which is registered as a historic building in the State of Connecticut.

"We're very excited about the opening of our third office in Connecticut because it will strengthen our ability to serve the needs of clients in the Hartford area," said Jonathan Perkins, the founding partner. "We've chosen to limit our practice to personal injury law, which means that, unlike most other law firms, the entire Perkins firm is organized to take special care of clients who have been injured due to the negligence and wrongful acts of others."

According to Perkins, Paul Clyons, an attorney with more than 30 years of experience as a litigator, including extensive work representing individuals with both personal injury and workers' compensation claims, is to be based full-time in the new Hartford office. The office is also staffed by a team leader and four full-time case managers.

"Our dedicated case management team is comprised of 25 full-time employees throughout the firm who monitor each case file daily and reach out to each client every two weeks with updates," explained Perkins.

Founded in 2005 and based in the New Haven, Conn. area, the Perkins law firm is among the fastest-growing personal injury firms in the state of Connecticut. The firm also maintains an office in the Bridgeport, Conn. area.

Although all types of injured clients may be helped, Perkins lawyers mainly focus on cases involving auto accidents, defective products, dog bites, lead poisoning, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, premises liability, slip and fall, and wrongful death.

    Taxpayers who labored to meet the April 15 deadline face an even more daunting endeavor: figuring out which documents to save and which can be safely assigned to the shredder. At the risk of encouraging a nation of hoarders, tax professionals generally recommend erring on the side of caution, particularly when it comes to documents that support deductions. "One of the things I do every morning is survey the tax news, and you see court case after court case of denied deductions, not because they're not legitimate but because the person had no records," says Jackie Perlman, analyst at H&R Block's Tax Institute.

    Medical marijuana is casting a cloud of confusion over Corporate America. Pot is legal in 14 states as a prescription painkiller, leaving employers struggling to reconcile zero-tolerance drug policies with a patient's right to get high. Human resources managers are grappling with such questions as whether random drug tests constitute discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act, what they are legally allowed to ask job candidates and whether they are required to accommodate after-hours and offsite use of medical marijuana.

Ask Perkins:

    First, it is extremely important for you to go to a doctor, both for your health and to substantiate your case. Next, come to us. We work on a contingency fee basis and will not charge you any fees for our services unless we win your case. We will help you recover money to pay for your medical expenses.

  •   How can you help me?

    Perkins can help you in a number of ways. We evaluate your case, determine if you are eligible for compensation, and develop a plan to gain you compensation. A case management team is assigned to your case. This team tracks all your paperwork and appointments and helps you document your medical records. We make sure you seek treatment for any new injuries. We will even drive you to the doctor’s office if you have no transportation.

  •   How do I know if I have a claim?

    The best, quickest way to find out if you have an injury case in Connecticut is to speak to a qualified legal professional. When you call Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers, you speak to Dawn Soffer, our call intake manager. She writes a detailed report of your accident. Your case is then reviewed by an experienced staff member and a personal injury attorney.

    We are honest and open. If we do not believe you have a valid injury case, we will let you know immediately.

  •   Should I speak to another attorney about my case?

    Some people are reassured by a second opinion. Many of our own clients come to us frustrated with the care—or lack of care—from their former lawyers. At Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers, we want you to feel confident and secure in your attorney selection. Our team works hard to ensure your experience with us is a good one.

  •   An insurance company offered me a settlement shortly after I was injured. Should I take it?

    Though the offer may be tempting, you should never take a settlement without consulting an attorney. Our Connecticut personal injury lawyers have extensive experience negotiating settlements. We know when an offer is fair compensation and when you are being low-balled. We do not let clients walk away with less than they deserve.
