In New Haven County and other parts of Connecticut, our accomplished attorneys handle a wide range of legal concerns, including situations relating to:

• Personal injury — Our firm takes on all types of personal injury and wrongful death cases, including claims arising from slip and fall incidents, vehicle collisions and medical malpractice. Following an on-the-job accident, we also advise victims of their rights under their workers’ compensation coverage as well as potential lawsuits against negligent third parties.
• Auto accidents — After an auto accident,  you can rely on us to fight for the best possible outcome during litigation and negotiations with insurers. Should your matter stem from an automobile, tractor trailer or motorcycle accident, or as a result of an uninsured motorist, our experienced attorneys can explain the special considerations that affect these cases.
• Estate planning — We provide thorough estate planning counsel for clients who seek to draft wills, establish trusts or develop other methods of preserving and distributing assets. We also advocate for executors and beneficiaries in probate litigation.

• Employment law — An employment law problem can make your workplace intolerable and even cost you your job. You can rely us for effective legal support if you’ve been victimized by sexual harassment, wrongful termination, unlawful retaliation or the failure of your employer to provide required accommodations, overtime pay or COVID-19 related relief. 

• Labor law and Union representation – Our experienced attorneys provide union representation in all aspects of collective bargaining and grievance arbitration matters involving municipal and private sector bargaining units. We have successfully represented school administrators, teachers, paraprofessionals, custodians, nurses, police, firefighters and other bargaining units throughout Connecticut for over 40 years.  

• Real estate — For both residential and commercial real estate transactions,  our firm provides clients the help they need to safeguard their interests. We also assist with zoning and land use hearings and appeals as well as property insurance claims and disputes.
• Municipal law and litigation — With an extensive background in municipal law and litigation,  our firm has served as Town Attorney for several communities. We have also advocated on behalf of planning and zoning boards, police and fire commissions, and many other government agencies.
