Our personal injury practice is led by attorney Toby Schaffer, who provides more than twenty five years of trial litigation experience. If you or a family member has been injured in an accident that was someone else's fault, you owe it to yourself to contact us for a free consultation.

We are licensed in Connecticut and New York

When we speak to discuss your injury or wrongful death claim, we will explain how the laws of Connecticut or New York apply to your case and help you decide what your best options may be. You will be under no pressure to pursue a claim. If you decide to file a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, we will represent you on a contingency basis - you will pay no attorney's fees unless you win money in a settlement or jury trial. We will seek reimbursements for disbursements, however, depending upon the circumstances.

We have helped people recover money damages for claims arising from:

• Motor vehicle accidents: We will help you get the money damages you need to recover from injuries resulting from a car accident or motorcycle or truck accident, in either Connecticut or New York.
• Medical malpractice: We hold medical professionals and nursing home staff to high standards of conduct, and we will help you recover money when a serious injury results from their personal or institutional negligence.
• Premises liability: If your child was injured in school or on a playground, or if you were hurt on public property or as a patron in a place of business, we can help you recover significant damages.
• Casino Accidents: If you suffered an injury on the premises of an Indian-owned casino in Connecticut, you may not know where to turn for help. Attorney Toby Schaffer is licensed to practice before the tribal courts and can help you with injury claims against the casino.
• Workers' compensation: We offer complete workers' compensation claim services for all initial claims and appeals.
• Wrongful death: We help families recover money after losing a loved one in any type of accident caused by the negligence or misconduct of another person or organization.

Whether you have been seriously injured by an uninsured motorist or suffered a back injury in a workplace accident, we have the experience and resources to mount a proper investigation, thoroughly document your injuries and prevent insurance companies from avoiding claims at your expense.
