Premises Liability
An owner and/or occupier of property is typically legally responsible for injuries suffered by persons on that property. For example, if someone slips and falls on an icy sidewalk, the owner may be responsible for that person’s injuries. However, the actual liability of a property owner depends on the circumstances of the case. Make an appointment for a consultation today so that Attorney Berman can determine whether liability may exist in your situation and whether you should be entitled to recover damages for your personal injury.

Dog Bites
Animal attacks can be a traumatic experience that leaves one with scars beyond those that are physical. Emotional and psychological suffering is a common residual effect that lingers once all the physical wounds heal. .

Connecticut law’s dictate that an owner or keeper of any dog that causes property damage or personal injury to another, is strictly liable for those damages. However, if the injured person was trespassing or teasing the dog, he or she may not recover under the law. Make an appointment for a consultation today so that Attorney Berman can determine whether liability may exist in your situation and whether you should be entitled to recover damages for your personal injury.
