Branford Personal Injury Attorney

Serving injured Branford and Shoreline residents since 1956, a short drive up I-95 from our downtown New Haven office.

Personal injury representation in Branford

Branford is a Shoreline town of about 28,000 people, a short drive east of our downtown New Haven office along Interstate 95. The LoRicco Law Firm has represented injured people across Greater New Haven and the Connecticut Shoreline since 1956, including Branford residents hurt in car and motorcycle crashes, falls, dog bites, and work-related accidents.

Branford's traffic concentrates along I-95 between exits 53 and 56, the Boston Post Road, and Route 146, the shoreline road that winds through Stony Creek past the Thimble Islands. Summer swells the town: beach traffic, motorcycles on Route 146, and visitors around the Branford Green and Main Street restaurants all add to the volume, and to the rear-end collisions and pedestrian accidents that come with it.

Branford belongs to the New Haven Judicial District, so a Branford resident's injury lawsuit can be filed at the Superior Court at 235 Church Street in New Haven, a few blocks from our office.

Consultations are free. If your injuries make travel difficult, we come to you, including hospital visits.

Common questions

What to know in Branford

General information only. Deadlines, venue, and recovery depend on the facts of a specific case.

Where would my Branford injury case be heard?

Connecticut generally sets the court for an injury lawsuit by where the people in the case live. Branford is part of the New Haven Judicial District, so if you live in Branford, your case can be filed at the Superior Court at 235 Church Street in New Haven, a few blocks from our office. If the other side lives in a different district, that court may be an option too, and we will help you choose.

The insurance company says I was partly at fault for my Branford crash. Do I still have a case?

Possibly. Connecticut uses comparative negligence rules, so being partly at fault does not automatically end a claim, but it can reduce or bar recovery depending on the facts. Do not accept an adjuster's fault assessment as final before speaking with an attorney.
