67 attorneys and law firms in Hartford are listed here, with personal injury, medical malpractice and products liability the most represented areas — a mix shaped by the city's role as a centre of the American insurance industry.
Cases are heard in the Superior Court for the Hartford Judicial District, with federal matters going to the District of Connecticut.
That insurance concentration cuts both ways for a claimant: the defence bar here is experienced and well resourced, and so are the firms that litigate against it. Connecticut applies modified comparative negligence with a 51 percent bar, divides marital property equitably, and sends probate matters to a separate system of probate courts.
