Attorneys in the Group regularly appear in federal and state trial courts throughout Connecticut and before administrative agencies such as the Connecticut Banking Commission, the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities, the Connecticut Siting Council, and various municipal boards and agencies.

The Group is committed to the effective and efficient use of pretrial discovery and other procedural tools throughout all phases of litigation to keep matters on track while encouraging an atmosphere conducive to settlement where appropriate. In recognition that most litigated matters are settled before trial, the Group is also committed to the use of alternative dispute resolution when appropriate, and has extensive experience in both mediation and arbitration. 

Many of the attorneys in the Litigation Group are also members of the firm’s Employment & Labor, Securities, Municipal, Personal Injury, or Land Use & Zoning Groups.
