New London Connecticut Personal Injury Lawyers

If you or someone you care about has been seriously injured in an accident or assault, you may be overwhelmed by a flood of medical and financial problems. Your insurance company may have approached you with an offer - how do you know it is fair? It costs nothing to have a personal injury attorney evaluate your case before making any decisions on your claim.

If you would like a free consultation, contact our office in New London. A personal injury attorney from our civil litigation team will be happy to discuss your situation.

We may be able to negotiate a fair settlement on your behalf. If the insurance companies are not treating you fairly, we are prepared to bring your case to trial to help you obtain maximum compensation. Supported by accident reconstruction, vocational and medical experts, our trial lawyers will demonstrate to a jury the true extent of your loss.

The financial impact of disabling injuries, lost wages, or loss of support due to the wrongful death of a family member is devastating. We use the most cost-effective approach to recovering damages for your loss, and our personal injury attorneys, Jack Collins, Matthew Auger, Bob Tukey, and Michael Blanchard charge no fees unless you recover damages.

If you were injured in a trucking accident, are traumatized as the result of an assault in a poorly secured building, or are grieving the loss of a child due to birth injuries resulting from medical malpractice, you may not realize that several insurance companies may be responsible for damages. Our attorneys pursue all parties responsible for damages in your case. If you would like a free consultation about your loss, contact Suisman Shapiro in New London.

Wrongful death settlements and awards rely on a demonstration of the dependent relationship between the deceased and the survivor, the value of lost financial and emotional support and the negligence of the responsible party. Our attorneys have the resources, skill and determination to build a strong case based on necessary points, and present a clear picture to the jury demonstrating responsibility and loss.

We handle personal injury and wrongful death cases involving:
