Questions
What types of cases does Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers handle?
We specialize in personal injury cases including car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, wrongful death claims, slip and fall incidents, product liability, and nursing home abuse cases across Connecticut and Massachusetts.
Do I have to pay upfront fees for your services?
No, we operate on a no-upfront-fee basis. You only pay legal fees if we successfully recover compensation for your case.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Connecticut?
Connecticut generally allows two years from the injury date to file a claim. However, specific circumstances like medical malpractice or government entity involvement may alter this timeframe.
Can I still file a claim if I was partially at fault?
Yes, Connecticut follows comparative negligence rules. Your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you can still recover damages if you're less than 50% responsible.
What should I do immediately after a car accident?
Prioritize medical care, document the scene with photos, exchange insurance information, report to police, and contact our firm before speaking with insurance companies to protect your rights.
How long does a personal injury case typically take?
Case duration varies based on complexity, injury severity, and insurance cooperation. While some settle in months, others may take years. We work efficiently to resolve cases while ensuring fair compensation.
