Understanding Negligence in Connecticut
We help you win your case by proving negligence, which refers to a failure to act with the ordinary level of care. To prove negligence, we must demonstrate that the defendant (the person you are suing) owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused you harm as a result. We must also show the nature of your injuries and losses.
We meticulously review your medical records and all the details of your accident, so we can present the best evidence and the strongest possible case. Our team is adept at handling complex cases involving multiple parties and complicated liability issues, ensuring that we pursue every possible avenue for recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Law
What Should I Do Immediately After an Accident in Middlebury?
After an accident, ensure your safety and seek medical attention promptly, even if your injuries seem minor. Document the scene by taking photographs and gathering witness information, and always file a police report. Contact Griffin Injury Law as soon as possible; our team will guide you through the necessary legal steps and ensure crucial evidence is preserved.
How Is Fault Determined in a Personal Injury Case in Connecticut?
Determining fault involves examining various factors, such as witness testimonies, accident reports, and expert analyses like accident reconstruction. In Connecticut, the comparative negligence rule means your compensation can be impacted by your degree of fault. Our attorneys at Griffin Injury Law are experienced in investigating and building your case to minimize your liability and secure the best possible compensation.
Can I Still Recover Damages If I Am Partially at Fault in a Connecticut Accident?
Yes, under Connecticut's comparative negligence law, you can recover damages even if you are partially at fault, as long as your fault does not exceed 50%. The compensation you receive will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Our firm focuses on reducing the fault assigned to you, maximizing your chance of recovery.
What Types of Compensation Are Available in Personal Injury Cases?
Compensation in personal injury cases typically includes medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and sometimes punitive damages. Each case is unique, and Griffin Injury Law diligently evaluates all potential damages, advocating for a recovery that fully supports our clients' needs both now and in the future.
How Long Does It Take to Resolve a Personal Injury Claim in Middlebury?
The duration of a personal injury claim varies depending on the complexity of the case, the willingness of parties to settle, and if the case goes to trial. Generally, more complicated cases can take longer. At Griffin Injury Law, we prioritize efficient case management while ensuring no detail is rushed, aiming for a resolution that meets your best interests.
