The call costs nothing, there is no obligation, and you pay no fee unless your case wins.

The Cases We See Most in Greenwich: Personal Injury, Car/Truck Crashes, and More

Car accidents

Rear-end collisions, someone running a red light, getting hit on I-95 or the Post Road. If another driver caused the crash, you shouldn't be left holding the medical bills. This also covers claims against your own uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage, which plenty of people don't realize they have.

Catastrophic injuries

Brain and spinal cord injuries, burns, amputations. These aren't a broken arm and they can't be handled like one. The medical costs run for decades, and what the claim is worth depends on getting that projection right early.

Truck accidents

Commercial carriers hold much larger insurance policies, and they send someone to the scene quickly. Driver logs and onboard data can be gone within weeks, so these cases move fast at the start.

Wrongful death

When a family loses someone because of somebody else's carelessness. It's a separate claim, brought by the estate rather than by the family directly, and not everyone has standing to bring it. We can explain who does before anything gets filed.

Motorcycle accidents

Riders get blamed for crashes they didn't cause. If a driver pulled out in front of you or says they never saw you, that's on them. The injuries are usually more serious and the argument over fault is usually harder.

Slip and Fall

A wet floor with no sign, ice nobody salted, a broken step. Property owners in Connecticut aren't automatically responsible when someone falls, which is why what you photograph in the first hour matters so much.

Pedestrian and bicycle accidents

Hit while walking or riding? Drivers tell police you stepped out or came out of nowhere. What they said at the scene isn't the end of the story. Most of these happen along the Post Road and on Greenwich Avenue.

Nursing home and elder abuse

Unexplained bruises, bedsores, sudden weight loss, a fall nobody can account for. Families usually notice something's wrong well before they can prove it.

Greenwich's position on the state line shapes its claims more than anything else. A collision on I-95 between Exits 2 and 5 routinely involves a New York driver, a New York-registered vehicle and a New York policy, and which state's law governs can change what the claim is worth. Greenwich Avenue produces a different pattern entirely: dense pedestrian traffic along a corridor of storefronts and cross streets, where even a low-speed strike causes serious injury. North of the Merritt Parkway the risk inverts again, with narrow, unlit backcountry roads where a single-vehicle crash may go undiscovered for some time. Premises claims round it out, concentrated in the retail district and on the older stone steps and walkways found throughout the town.
