Finding the Right Lawyer in Greenwich

The attorneys listed on this page handle a range of accident and injury cases, not just one type. Look for a lawyer with specific experience matching your situation — whether that's a highway pileup on I-95, a fall at a local business, or an on-the-job injury. Most offer free initial consultations, so you can discuss your case before committing.

Connecticut gives you two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. The state follows a modified comparative fault rule — if you are found 51% or more at fault for the accident, you cannot recover damages.
