We handle Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases, helping clients discharge unsecured debts or restructure payments while protecting assets like homes and cars.
How much does a personal injury case cost?
We work on a contingency fee basis—no upfront costs. Fees are a percentage of your settlement or judgment, and you pay nothing if we lose.

Yes. Connecticut exemptions allow up to $250,000 in home equity protection. We'll assess your situation to determine if bankruptcy can save your property.
What should I do after a workplace injury?
Seek medical attention immediately, report the injury to your employer, and contact our workers' compensation attorneys to ensure you receive proper benefits and legal protection.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
In Connecticut, the statute of limitations is two years from the injury date. Contact us promptly to preserve evidence and meet legal deadlines.
Do you offer free consultations?
