At Carter Mario Law Firm, we shoulder the burden of proof, employing our expertise to ensure justice for our clients. Together, we will fight for the compensation and closure you deserve.
Types of Personal Injury Cases Carter Mario Law Firm Can Help You With
The attorneys at Carter Mario Law Firm have dedicated over three decades to representing injured victims across Connecticut. Setting us apart from other personal injury law firms, our fearless legal team is committed to taking on powerful insurance companies in various challenging and complex personal injury cases. Specifically, we provide expert representation for victims injured due to:
- Car Accidents: Each year in Connecticut, thousands are injured in car accidents, leading to significant physical, emotional, and financial distress. Our experienced attorneys work diligently with insurers, individuals, and companies to secure the compensation our clients rightfully deserve.
- Motorcycle Accidents: Motorcyclists face more significant risks on the road, often lacking the protective barriers available to other vehicles. Despite best safety practices, the negligence of other drivers can lead to severe injuries. Our legal team advocates for the rights and recovery of motorcyclists.
- Truck Accidents: Due to their size and power, commercial truck accidents can result in catastrophic injuries. These cases involve multiple parties, including drivers, shipping companies, and manufacturers. Carter Mario Law Firm is equipped to handle the complexities of truck accident litigation.
- Pedestrian Accidents: Pedestrians, like bicyclists, are vulnerable to serious injuries in accidents. Our attorneys understand the unique challenges pedestrians face and work tirelessly to help them recover the compensation they need and deserve.
- Product Liability: Products with design or manufacturing defects can cause serious harm. Whether the issue lies in the design or production process, our attorneys are skilled in navigating product liability claims to pursue deserved compensation for our clients.
- Dog Bites: Dog attacks can result in serious, sometimes life-altering injuries, particularly to children. Our firm represents victims of dog bites seeking compensation for their physical and emotional injuries.
- Bicycle Accidents: Bicyclists have rights on Connecticut roads, but when these rights are ignored, accidents can occur, leading to severe injuries. Our attorneys are committed to protecting bicyclists’ rights and pursuing justice on their behalf.
- Slip and Fall: Property owners are responsible for keeping their premises safe. When they fail to do so, resulting in injury, our legal team can help victims pursue claims against negligent property owners.
Beyond these common cases, Carter Mario Law Firm’s personal injury attorneys have a proven track record in handling various personal injury cases, including but not limited to work injuries, premises liability, medical malpractice, and wrongful death cases.
We encourage anyone uncertain about their personal injury situation to seek a free initial consultation. We aim to assess your case and guide you through the next steps toward recovery.
Recovering Maximum Compensation for Our Personal Injury Clients
Many personal injury attorneys are unwilling to litigate difficult cases or focus on obtaining quick settlements that do not reflect the true value of their clients’ injuries. Our attorneys do everything possible to recover the maximum compensation for our clients. In addition to investing the time and resources necessary to properly litigate a case in court, under our Zero Fee Warranty, you don’t pay unless we win, and we never earn more than you.
Your Personal Injury Claim Can Help Pay For
- Medical Bills: You shouldn’t bear the cost of medical treatments due to another’s negligence. We aim to recover 100% of your medical expenses, including future medical care.
- Lost Wages: Serious injuries can hinder your ability to work. We fight to recover lost wages and compensation for any diminished earning capacity.
- Permanent Disability: If you’ve been permanently disabled, we pursue damages to cover the challenges and adjustments you’ll face.
- Pain and Suffering: We recognize the physical pain and emotional distress our clients endure and strive to secure just compensation for these non-economic damages.
Damages You May Recover from a Personal Injury Case
Connecticut state law allows you to claim economic and non-economic damages for the losses you suffered due to the injuries sustained from an accident. Specifically, you can claim economic damages for the financial losses you suffered, including:
- Ambulance bills
- Hospital bills
- Surgical expenses
- Physical therapy bills
- Occupational therapy bills
- Medical equipment and devices
- Modifications to a home and vehicle
- Future medical expenses
- Past and future lost wages
For your non-economic losses, you can claim financial compensation for the physical pain and psychological anguish caused by the accident and your injuries.

How to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Connecticut
Before filing a lawsuit, the personal injury attorneys at Carter Mario Law Firm conduct a detailed investigation of the facts surrounding your accident. This is crucial because the time following an accident is when evidence is fresh and available.
Following our investigation, our personal injury lawyers prepare and send a demand package of your medical records and the evidence we collected to the negligent person’s insurance carrier. We do this to negotiate a favorable settlement with the insurance company. If we cannot negotiate a settlement you approve, we will file a lawsuit on your behalf.
Who is Eligible to Make a Personal Injury Claim?
It is a longstanding law that only a person with “standing,” i.e., suffered legally recognized harm, can file a personal injury claim and lawsuit in Connecticut. Only a victim can make a personal injury claim. If a victim suffers fatal injuries and passes away, their estate can file a wrongful death claim.
Connecticut Personal Injury FAQs
The personal injury claims process is complex and confusing. Insurance companies, at best, are unhelpful or, at worst, complicate the process to discourage injured victims. At Carter Mario Law Firm, our Connecticut personal injury attorneys offer free consultations to victims to advise them of their legal rights and how to successfully navigate the personal injury claims process.
How Long Do I File a Personal Injury Claim in Connecticut?
Each state imposes a legal time limit on a person’s ability to file a personal injury claim. This is known as a “statute of limitations.” Under Connecticut state law, you have two years from your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit, or else your claim is time-barred.
How Much is a Personal Injury Claim Worth?
The value of a personal injury claim depends on the type of injury and total damages, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Minor injuries might settle for one to two times the hard costs, while serious injuries require an attorney for proper valuation.
How Much Do I Have to Pay for a Personal Injury Lawyer?
The answer is “it depends.” At Carter Mario Law Firm, our personal injury attorneys represent injured victims on a contingency fee basis. We only charge a legal fee if we win your case at trial or negotiate a settlement you approve.
Can I Recover Compensation If I Was Partially at Fault?
In Connecticut, thanks to the state’s modified comparative fault rule, you can recover compensation in a personal injury case even if you were partially at fault. As long as you are found to be 50% or less at fault for the incident, you can receive compensation, but your percentage of fault will reduce your recovery. However, if you are found to be more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover any damages.
How Do I with an Insurance Claims Adjuster?
It’s advised to be cautious, especially about providing recorded statements without legal advice, as adjusters are trained to minimize claim payouts. Collecting evidence and preparing for negotiations is crucial before discussing a settlement.
