Accidents happen, and when they do, they are usually someone’s fault. In legal terms, this fault is referred to as “negligence,” and Connecticut law entitles victims of negligence to recover just compensation for all of their financial and non-financial losses.
Unfortunately, the process of recovering just compensation is not nearly this straightforward. Typically, filing a personal injury claim means dealing with the negligent party’s insurance company, and the insurance companies will fight to deny victims’ claims by all means available. In order to recover just compensation, you need to be able to overcome their tactics, and you also need to know what constitutes a fair settlement or verdict in your case.

If you were injured in a vehicle collision or other accident, we can use our experience to help you win the financial compensation you deserve. A Stratford personal injury lawyer can promptly conduct an investigation to preserve critical evidence, if necessary.
