A Resource for Our Colleagues: Connecticut Litigation
We believe a strong partnership is built on shared knowledge. As a resource for our partners, here are some key Connecticut distinctions:
- Statute of Limitations: Generally, 2 years for personal injury/negligence claims.
- Dog Bite Law: Connecticut is a Strict Liability state. There is no “one free bite.”
- Comparative Negligence: Connecticut follows a Modified Comparative Negligence rule (51% bar). A plaintiff cannot recover if their fault is greater than the defendant’s.
- Fee Sharing Rules: We fully comply with Rule 1.5(e) of the Connecticut Rules of Professional Conduct, which allows for the division of fees between lawyers who are not in the same firm, provided the client agrees in writing and the total fee is reasonable.
