We Help Norwich Injury Victims With Many Types of Cases
When you are hurt by another person’s negligent actions, you may not be sure if you have legal options. When you reach out to Trantolo & Trantolo, LLC, our team will evaluate your case and explain your options to you. As a personal injury firm, we handle many types of claims, including:
Car and Truck Accidents
In 2023, data from the Connecticut Crash Data Repository shows there were 100,260 vehicle accidents in Connecticut and over 1,100 crashes in Norwich alone. Auto accidents can cause serious harm and major losses for victims, and we’re determined to seek justice. Some possible forms of negligence that can cause car or truck crashes include:
- Drunk driving or driving while under the influence of drugs
- Speeding
- Drowsy driving
- Distracted driving
- Driving recklessly
- Running stop signs or lights
- Failing to use blinkers
Sometimes, there are negligent parties not directly involved in the accident. Commercial truck accidents can be especially complex as an employer’s expectations may have caused a trucker to make negligent choices, or faulty parts contributed to a truck accident. Whatever the cause, our Norwich car and truck accident lawyers make sure to identify all liable parties.
Motorcycle Accidents
At Trantolo & Trantolo, LLC, we have staff members who ride, and we know just how careless other drivers can be. We are dedicated to seeking justice for our fellow bikers and making sure they have compassionate and dedicated representation.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents
Busy roads, poor infrastructure, and other risk factors can be dangerous to people on foot and on bikes. Pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists have responsibilities to one another, but drivers do not always respect the rights of non-drivers or uphold laws.
Medical Malpractice
If a medical professional made a mistake and caused you harm, you may be able to seek damages. Malpractice claims are complex, and our team will work to prove provider or facility negligence.
Premises Liability
Dog bites and slip and fall accidents are some of the most common premises liability claims our firm handles. Property owners have a duty to prevent harm to others, whether that means cleaning up a slip or controlling their dog.
Proving someone’s negligence is often complicated, but our team has the knowledge and experience necessary to handle these types of claims.
Product Liability
When a product injures you or a loved one, you may have a product liability claim. As your lawyers, it’s our job to prove that an item was faulty and caused your harm. Businesses are reluctant to accept responsibility for dangerous and defective products, but our team is determined to seek justice on your behalf.
Nursing Home Abuse
Nursing home abuse and neglect leave vulnerable people seriously hurt. There is no excuse for such negligence, and our nursing home abuse team is ready to help you through such a difficult time.
Mass Tort
When a company’s faulty product injures multiple people, we are prepared to seek compensation from all parties involved. Dangerous medications, faulty medical devices, unsafe products, or incidents of negligence are just some of the mass tort claims we handle.
If you don’t see your accident listed above, or you are not sure if these categories apply to you, we encourage you to reach out to our Norwich injury attorneys. Our team can conduct a free case evaluation and discuss your next steps.

What Can I Do to Protect My Norwich Personal Injury Claim or Lawsuit?
While each case is different, here are some tips and steps to take for protecting your personal injury case:
- Seek medical attention immediately. Some injuries may not show up right away and can quickly become serious or worsen without proper treatment. Taking care of your health also means creating a paper trail for a possible claim.
- Make a report to the proper parties. Whether you need to call the Norwich Police Department to report an accident, make an incident report with a supermarket’s management, call the insurance company, or reach out to another party, be sure to make some sort of report as soon as you can.
- Record evidence when possible. If you can speak to witnesses at the scene, take pictures, or gather any other evidence, this can help support your claim. Of course, we will also investigate the incident and gather evidence that may have been difficult or impossible for you to get.
- Record your losses. Keep receipts, bills, pay stubs, and other paperwork to help track expenses and monetary losses. You should also make a note of how your injuries and other losses are affecting your life.
- Consider hiring a lawyer. Insurers can use your own statements against you, and dealing with them is exhausting and confusing. Our team can protect you from the stresses and pitfalls that come with dealing with insurance companies.
Our initial consultations are free, so call Trantolo & Trantolo, LLC to discuss your case.
You Deserve Maximum Compensation for Your Norwich Personal Injury Case
Our personal injury attorneys know just how devastating losses can be after an injury or accident in Norwich. These losses fall into two main categories: economic and non-economic.
Economic damages are those losses with a direct financial value. If you are spending or otherwise losing to address the injury or loss, it is an economic damage. Non-economic damages address losses to your emotional and mental well-being and your overall quality of life. While there is no direct financial value to such losses, we can still seek money to acknowledge such harm.
Current and Future Medical Expenses After a Norwich Accident
Medical expenses are one of the main types of compensation we seek for Norwich personal injury victims. Everyone has different medical needs, and we’ll make sure we have an accurate assessment of your losses. Not only do we seek compensation for your current expenses, but we work with your medical team and other experts to estimate your future expenses. We seek damages to address expenses for:
- Hospital stays, emergency room visits, and ambulance trips
- Medication and medical devices, like wheelchairs
- Physical and occupational therapy sessions
- Surgery
- Mental health services
Pain and Suffering and Other Emotional Harm Associated with Your Injuries
The mental and emotional harm from your accident and injuries are just as important as your financial ones. When we examine your losses, we will be sure to seek compensation to help you with:
- Physical pain and suffering
- Emotional distress and anguish
- Any negative effects on your ability to enjoy life
- Disfigurement and scarring, which can cause significant physical and emotional pain
- Loss of consortium and support for loved ones, like a spouse
Your Injuries Can Result in Lost Income and Lost Earning Potential
Whether you are out of work for months or years, we make sure we seek damages for any income you could not earn while you were recovering from your injuries. We also seek what’s known as “lost earning potential.” This loss addresses any professional losses you may suffer if you cannot return to work at all or in your full capacity.
Your injuries may make it very difficult or impossible to perform your job as you once did. Dealing with these injuries means you may lose out on benefits and income because you have to retire or switch professions. Our Norwich personal injury lawyers want to help secure your future by holding the negligent party responsible for such losses.
We Seek Compensation for Any Property Damage
Some personal injury cases, like auto accidents, can also involve damage to your property. If this is one of the losses you suffered, we have a property damage expert on staff who will help assess your losses.
We Will Seek Damages if the Norwich Injury Was Fatal
If your loved one passed away after the accident or due to their injuries, we offer our deepest sympathies. The financial and emotional strain of this loss can be devastating, but our team will help your family seek wrongful death damages, including:
- Funeral and burial costs
- Accident-related medical expenses the deceased had before their passing
- Pain and suffering of the deceased
- Loss of consortium for the surviving spouse
- Lost income of the deceased
Whatever your losses may be, our Norwich personal injury lawyers will make sure to seek full and fair compensation.
