Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury in Connecticut
How long do I have to file a claim?
Most personal injury claims must be filed within two years. Waiting too long can weaken your case.
What if I was partially at fault?
You may still recover compensation if you are less than 51% responsible under Connecticut’s modified comparative negligence law.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
No. We work on a contingency fee, so you pay nothing unless we win.
Do most cases go to trial?
Most cases settle, but preparing each case as if it may go to trial results in stronger settlements.
