Frequently Asked Questions
How soon must I act?
Under Connecticut law, you generally have two years from the date of injury to file a claim. Waiting too long can make it harder to gather the evidence you need, so starting early is important.
What types of documents help prepare the claim?
Key documents include accident or incident reports, medical records from local clinics, letters or emails from insurance companies, and your own notes about symptoms, treatment, and daily limitations.
My injury appeared later, does the two-year clock still apply?
If your injury wasn’t obvious right away, Connecticut’s discovery rule may extend the deadline. Even so, the sooner you begin the process, the easier it is to preserve details and records.
How long does a typical claim take?
The time needed to resolve a claim depends on several factors. Some cases settle in a few months, while others require more time to reach resolution.
What will it cost to hire you?
We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no legal fees upfront. Our fee is collected only if we successfully recover compensation for you.
Will my case go to court?
Many injury claims are settled before trial, but we prepare each case as if it will go to court. This readiness often helps in securing stronger settlement offers.
