Rute Mendes Caetano, Esq.

Rute believes it is important that all of her clients fully understand what is happening in their case, even when English is not their native language.

Caetano is a fluent speaker of Spanish and Portuguese.

“Knowing my client is comfortable speaking with me in their native language brings me great peace of mind,” Caetano says. Born in Portugal, Rute immigrated to Danbury at a young age and has a true appreciation for dealing with English as a second language. In English, Portuguese, or Spanish, Rute values the time she spends each day addressing and helping resolve issues that her clients face.

Rute’s practice is dedicated to representing personal injury victims. In addition, she frequently represents victims in sexual assault cases in the local criminal Courts. Caetano received a Pro Bono Award from the Danbury Bar Association for her work representing victims of crime.

Caetano has been a seminar presenter for the Connecticut Trial Lawyers Association.
