Personal Injury Trial Lawyers Serving Connecticut for Over 50 Years

About The Firm

The personal injury law firm of Tremont & Sheldon fights to bring justice to Connecticut citizens who suffer personal injury at the hands of others. By diligently preparing each case for jury trial, our dedicated and experienced trial attorneys strive to obtain successful recoveries for our clients. Our focus includes complex injury claims involving sexual abuse of children, medical malpractice, legal malpractice, nursing home negligence, car accidents, motorcycle accidents, clergy sexual abuse, wrongful death, catastrophic injuries, spinal cord injuries, falls, workmans compensation, and defective products.

Our lawyers' exceptional trial abilities are recognized by the American Board of Trial Advocates who give accreditation to less than one percent of all licensed lawyers in the United States and are listed in the prestigious The Best Lawyers In America®. Tremont & Sheldon continually seeks to provide representation to injured people, regardless of that individual's financial circumstance.

Individual Service by Caring Professionals

We treat our clients in the Southern Connecticut community both with consideration and care. The size of our firm allows us to provide individual attention in handling your case.

Lawyers who handle your case are often called upon to give lectures to other attorneys throughout the state on new developments in personal injury law. You are, therefore, assured that your lawyer is aware of the newest legal remedies. With state-of-the-art computers, we have access to medical libraries, which allows us to research the effect your injury has upon all of your body systems. Our use of the latest legal decisions and the most exhaustive medical research has enabled us to recover substantial monetary awards for our clients with serious injuries. In doing so, we are proud that we have broken new ground in uninsured motorist protection, municipal and police liability, sexual abuse of children, and in some cases have collected millions of dollars for people while establishing a higher standard of care from doctors, hospitals, manufacturers, and city governments.

Practice Exclusively Devoted to Personal Injury

Many lawyers solicit injury cases through television and direct advertising. However, some of those lawyers spend most of their time in front of the camera and never in a real courtroom. Tremont & Sheldon is one of the few Bridgeport, Connecticut area firms that limits its practice solely to personal injury. If you are injured physically and emotionally by a dangerous product, or by an automobile, or while working at your job, or on a broken escalator, or by the death of a loved one in an explosion, or by a trusted priest who sexually abuses your child, or by a doctor who negligently delivers your baby, you need lawyers who have knowledge of medicine and the effects of trauma on the mind and body. To develop your case you may need economists, engineers, psychiatrists, medical illustrators, and other professionals whom we have integrated into a team that works for you. Most importantly, Tremont & Sheldon whose years of experience at jury trials has allowed us to go up against insurance companies and large corporations opposing your claim. Our best advertisement has always been our network of satisfied clients.

The Contingency Fee: Every Citizen's Key to the Courthouse Door

People often cannot afford the prohibitive costs that the best lawyers in America charge for their services. The situation is even worse for people who are undergoing serious physical and financial problems because of disabling injuries caused by others. Working in the Greater Bridgeport area for over 50 years, we understand the frustration of people who need the best legal representation, but cannot afford it. Fortunately, in the field of personal injury, we can provide you with a contingency fee--often called every citizen's key to the courthouse door. Under this arrangement, you only pay a percentage of what you recover from the award at the end of the case. You are not required to pay attorney's fees in advance or pay on an hourly basis for a consultation. Despite Tremont & Sheldon's ratings, reputation, recognition, and qualifications, you can, therefore, hire us to handle your case for the same fee that you might be charged by any ordinary lawyer with little or no personal injury experience. We will continue this tradition, serving the community as personal injury trial lawyers for over 50 years.
