The Connecticut Injury Resource Guide was formed to help injured people and their families become part of a statewide community to gain insight and commentary to all aspects of injury cases. We are dedicated to the people of Connecticut and have had the privilege of working with them for decades.

We will be sharing interviews with leading experts, providing up-to-date information, commenting on news stories and communicating topical advice to help Connecticut injury victims and their families better understand how they can heal physically, get better quicker, and improve their quality of life.

These accidents involve many different types of fact patterns such as people hit in a crosswalk, people crossing the street without a crosswalk, people getting hit in a parking lot, having an elderly driver back into them, getting hit on a sidewalk while crossing a driveway, and getting struck by a vehicle while on private property.
