I retained Kevin for help on a criminal matter for someone close to me. He came highly recommended and I can confidently echo that glowing recommendation now. Kevin approached a sensitive matter with expertise and a solid game plan. Throughout the months we worked with him, he was communicative, responsive, and knowledgeable. Kevin told us: “I will do everything I can for you,” and we wholeheartedly believed that he cared enough to do just that. Kevin achieved a fantastic result all while managing our expectations and made sure we knew what the options were throughout a very stressful process. Knowing we had Kevin on our side was reassuring.
Do not hesitate to reach out to Kevin, no matter how small or big your issue may be. His knowledge of the Stamford system, including Judges and prosecutors, was invaluable. He believes in what he does and will absolutely do everything he can to help.

Yesterday I had an urgent legal matter to complete by day’s end. I called Attorney Kirsten Bennett, whom I had worked with beautifully on other matters. She wasn’t in the office that day but readily agreed to meet me there. She took care of business by going way out of her way for me. I was very grateful — and will always highly recommend her. Thank you, Kirsten!

Attorney Christopher Setaro is proficient, knowledgeable, concise and by far the best attorney I have had the pleasure of working with. He was on top of everything. I received updates on my case via mail and email. His staff is also friendly and able to quickly answer questions. Attorney Setaro was also available to speak with in person as well. He explains your case as well as legal documents in a way that is understandable. He will go over anything until you understand clearly what your rights are. And if that isn’t enough, he was extremely amazing at my hearing. When the opposing attorney tells you, “you have a really good lawyer,” then you know you have made the right decision.

Working with Murphy & Murphy LLP provided the perfect balance between working with paralegal Marta to complete the Medicaid application process and working with Attorney Murphy for guidance, suggestions and advocacy to facilitate a timely and successful conclusion.
Both Attorney Murphy and Marta were clear about the necessary documents needed and were always professional as well as compassionate throughout the process.
I would recommend Murphy & Murphy to anyone needing eldercare advice and assistance, without reservation. I feel fortunate to have had them on my side.

We retained Tom this past year and couldn't have been happier. From the very beginning, it was clear that Tom knew the law, the court system and had direct experience with our specific type of case. I've worked with Attorney's my entire career and appreciate that throughout the process, Tom was always very clear and made sure that we understood what was happening. But most important, he was very compassionate while doing his job, explained to us when a decision was made and fought for what was fair. Tom is a passionate, ethical Attorney and I highly recommend him.

Being in the medical field I did not understand how serious a car accident could be. I always thought that people exaggerated their pain. A friend suggested I speak to a lawyer and gave me the name of Augie Ribeiro. He was understanding and explained how people do not know their rights or understand the seriousness of their injuries. I am thankful that I was referred to him. I recommend him.

I just finished my pre-closure yesterday for a sale tomorrow (I am selling a house). I once again used Mr. Yorio due to his help when I purchased a house in October. I was very impressed with the entire team. The seller of the house attempted to pull out 13 minutes before closing. I wanted to just sit and cry. Mr. Yorio and his staff helped us through every step of the way- even as emotional support! We were able to close the following week and he was so accommodating! My husband couldn’t believe all of the information and tricks about mortgages during closing. I felt like we also met with a financial advisor! I would definitely hire him and recommend him!

I can't speak highly enough about Attorney Beadnell. I was on multi-state probation for the past five years, dealing with both NY and CT for the same offense (offense in NY, but I live in CT and had probation based out of Danbury). As you can imagine, trying to communicate with Probation and the DMV about anything was an absolute nightmare between multiple states. I was never given the time of day, questions were never answered, and I felt that every time I spoke with someone I was an inconvenience to them. I'm also a first time offender, and I never had any violations or issues throughout the past 5 years while on probation.
With my probation completion date approaching in January 2025, I began contacting attorneys about six months ago. I explained my situation, pleading that all I needed was an attorney to communicate with probation and the DMV and help assure that the completion of my probation goes smoothly and there wouldn't be any surprises. I contacted over a dozen law firms multiple times, and I didn't receive a single call back. This was unbelievably frustrating and caused an immense amount of stress. I was at the point of giving up, but then a colleague of mine recommended Attorneys Beadnell & Thibodeau. I thought I'd give it one last shot, and thank goodness I did.
I spoke with Attorney Tyler DeJesus, who works with Attorney Beadnell. Within 24 hours of calling, I booked an in-person consultation, sat down with Attorney Beadnell and Attorney DeJesus, and had all of my questions and concerns answered that had been causing me daily stress for years. Attorney Beadnell gave me a clear plan moving forward, communicated with both NY and CT, cleared up any confusion, and provided all of the necessary paperwork between the two states leading up to my probation completion date.
As of today, I am officially completed with probation with no issues thanks to the incredible folks over at Thibodeau and Beadnell! They helped me during the most difficult time in my life, and I will forever be grateful to them for caring enough to give me the time and assistance. I can't recommend this law firm enough, truly great people who want to help.

Candace has been a wonderful asset to me in my business. She is a clear thinker, with a tremendous amount of common sense -- just a pure professional. She has handled my case on a first class basis, sticking to the facts and keeping her calm during all proceedings. Even the opposing counsel was highly impressed and had much respect for Candace in her demeanor and intelligence. I would highly recommend Candace to anyone needing an intelligent, detailed-oriented counsel who stays committed to the case right through to the end, with the highest of integrity and class. And...she is such a pleasure to work with!

Brian is terrific. Highly recommend. Only those with unreasonable expectations believe that simply getting a "paid" lawyer is the end all be all of judicial magic and that everything will come up roses. Sometimes you have to lay in the bed you've made, but I guarantee it will be a bit fluffier if you use Brian for your defense. If he can get you kicked loose he will. I appreciate all he helped me with.

Brian Romano helped me with a situation I had little to no knowledge on. I reached out to many lawyers on the subject and he was recommended to me by a Friends father. I was hesitant with other lawyers and once I spoke to Brian. I felt instantly ready to move forward. Everything he told me happened and anything that he was unsure on Brian found out same hour. He truly helped me in moment I wasn’t confident taking on. He saved me money throughout the process and overall I came out on top. I cannot thank Brian and his team enough. Always there for me if anything pops up in the mail as well. Pick Brian for your needs!

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
