ToggleCar accidents on I-395, I-95, Route 12, Route 2 and other eastern Connecticut roads can result in serious injuries and even death. When a car accident is the result of negligence on the part of a driver or other party, injury victims have the right to pursue compensation for their losses.
At Suisman Shapiro, we are strong advocates for car accident victims in New London, Middlesex and Windham Counties and throughout eastern Connecticut. Our attorneys have a proven record of success helping clients obtain favorable verdicts and settlements in motor vehicle accident injury claims.
If you were injured in a car or truck accident, you may be entitled to insurance coverage from several policies.
Motor vehicle accidents are a leading cause of personal injury and accidental death in Connecticut each year. If you or someone in your family was involved, you may not realize how many parties are responsible for your medical expenses, loss of income, permanent disability and other losses. You may also wonder whether you should accept your insurance company’s offer to settle.
Please remember, insurance companies are not on your side. Generally, the first settlement offer made is low, and not sufficient to compensate injured parties for their financial losses and pain and suffering.
Before accepting any settlement offer, contact Suisman Shapiro in New London for a free consultation about your case. Our personal injury attorneys will evaluate not only your current expenses, but the potential cost of future medical treatments, therapy, or disability when considering the fairness of the offer.
Suisman Shapiro is an eastern Connecticut law firm serving clients from Putnam to Clinton, from Middletown to Stonington, including New London County, Windham County and Middlesex County, and the communities of Groton, Norwich, Old Saybrook, Essex and Willimantic. If you have been injured in a motor vehicle/auto accident, our lawyers charge no attorney fees unless you recover damages.
Have you been injured or lost a loved one in a car crash, truck accident, ATV accident, 18-wheeler or commercial vehicle collision, or SUV rollover? We will enlist experts and build a case to demonstrate your losses to a jury. At our New London CT offices, motor vehicle accident attorneys serve clients from New London County, Windham County and Middlesex County including the communities of: New London, Norwich, Waterford, Groton, East Lyme, Stonington/North Stonington, Lyme/Old Lyme, Old Saybrook, Ledyard and Montville.

If you have been injured in a car accident, you face an uphill battle in obtaining the compensation you need to pay for medical bills, wage loss and other hardships. Our lawyers are equipped to serve as the strong advocates you need throughout this process.
We will identify sources of compensation for your loss. In commercial trucking accidents insurers of the semi truck driver, the trucking company, your own automobile and other potential responsible parties may be involved. If you were on the job when your accident happened, or traveling between job sites, you may also be eligible for a workers’ compensation claim. Coordinating these claims can be confusing and frustrating. Leave the paperwork with us and focus on your recovery.
While insurance companies often try to limit or deny compensation to car accident injury victims, our firm has the resources to determine the true value of your claim. We will thoroughly investigate the circumstances of your accident to determine how the accident occurred and who is to blame.
Our investigations often uncover evidence of negligence and wrongdoing, including distracted driving, speeding, drunk driving, reckless driving and highway or auto defects. We fully assess damages, short- and long-term, to help our clients obtain the resources they need.
Suisman Shapiro offers free initial consultations for car accident cases and bills on a contingent fee basis, meaning you will not owe us any fees unless we obtain a recovery for you. Contact us online or by telephone at 860-442-4416 to arrange a consultation with an experienced New London car accident lawyer.

I'm very happy with the outcome, and more importantly, I felt respected and heard through the whole process.
