You Were Hurt. Now What?

A car crash turns your life upside down fast. Medical bills pile up. Your car may be totaled. You may miss weeks of work. And the insurance company — representing the driver who hit you — starts calling almost immediately, looking to settle your claim for as little as possible.

That pressure is real, and it is intentional.

Connecticut is a fault-based state, meaning the driver who caused your accident is financially responsible for your injuries and damages. But proving fault, documenting losses, and negotiating with adjusters takes legal skill and a thorough knowledge of how insurers operate. Connecticut also applies a modified comparative negligence rule, so even if you share some portion of fault, you may still recover compensation — as long as your share is below 51%.

You have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury claim in Connecticut. Miss that deadline and you lose your right to compensation entirely. Acting quickly protects your case.

Adler Law Group handles the legal heavy lifting — so you do not have to face insurance companies alone.

What Our Car Accident Attorneys Handle

Our Hartford personal injury lawyers handle the full range of motor vehicle accident claims, including:

• Car and auto accident claims — rear-end collisions, T-bone crashes, head-on impacts, distracted driving
• Truck accident cases — commercial vehicle crashes often involve multiple liable parties and complex insurance coverage
• Motorcycle accident claims — riders face unique risks and are frequently undercompensated by insurers
• Uninsured and underinsured motorist claims — we pursue every available avenue of recovery
• Wrongful death arising from car accidents

We investigate the crash, gather police reports and witness statements, work with accident reconstruction professionals when needed, and build the strongest possible case for your recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Connecticut?

Connecticut's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. In limited circumstances, this may extend to three years. Do not wait — evidence fades and deadlines are strictly enforced.

Is Connecticut a no-fault state?

No. Connecticut follows a fault-based system. The at-fault driver's insurance is responsible for your damages. You can file a claim with their insurer or pursue compensation through the courts.

What if I was partly at fault for the crash?

Connecticut uses a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages as long as you are found to be less than 51% at fault. Your compensation is reduced proportionally to your percentage of fault.

What damages can I recover after a car accident?

Recoverable damages typically include medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and future medical costs related to your injuries.

Do I have to pay upfront for a car accident attorney?

No. Adler Law Group works on a contingency fee basis — you pay no attorney fees unless we win your case.

What should I do immediately after a car accident in Hartford?

Call 911, seek medical attention even if you feel fine, document the scene if possible, and contact a car accident attorney before speaking with the other driver's insurance company.

Does Adler Law Group handle truck and motorcycle accidents?

Yes. Our vehicle accident lawyers handle all types of motor vehicle accident claims, including motorcycle accident claims and truck accident cases throughout Connecticut.
