Practice Areas Description

Our practice areas include:

- Sexual Abuse

Tremont & Sheldon is committed to representing all survivors of childhood sexual abuse perpetrated by family members, clergy, friends, relatives, doctors, teachers, Boy Scout leaders, bus drivers, and coaches. We are experienced at handling cases of clergy sexual abuse, teacher sexual abuse, doctor sexual abuse, and other types of sexual molestation of children by adults. We have successfully pursued civil cases for victims of these heinous criminal acts with both compassion and discretion.

- Personal Injury

A personal injury case can include a variety of situations including traffic collision injuries, slip and fall injuries, injuries suffered because of a medical mistake by a doctor or a legal mistake by a lawyer. It can also include injuries that occur because of a defective product or in the course of work such as on a construction site. In order to make a case, the injured person must be able to show that the harm and losses were caused by someone else's carelessness. Personal injury claims typically involve physical injuries that are often accompanied to some degree with emotional upset. Personal injury claims can also include cases involving intentional acts such as the deliberate conduct involved when an adult sexually abuses a child or physically assaults another person.

- Motor Vehicle Accidents

The personal injury law offices of Tremont & Sheldon review all car accident, truck accident, and motorcycle accident cases, no matter how minor or severe the injuries appear to be. Each car accident case is carefully watched and any unusual medical signs or symptoms are reviewed by us and our medical experts to ensure that you get what you deserve — fair and just damages for the pain, suffering, and disability brought upon you by careless drivers.

- Workplace Injuries

Most employers are required to provide workers’ compensation coverage. The injured worker is able to make a claim for payment of medical expenses and can also receive partial payment for lost time from work. The coverage provides for both temporary and permanent disability benefits. For most workplace accidents, workers' compensation insurance provides the sole means of recovery. However, when the accident is caused by the fault of someone other than the employer or a fellow employee, the injured worker may have a right to sue in court. The workers' compensation attorneys at Tremont & Sheldon have a long history of fighting for the rights of workers and of maximizing the recoveries for their injuries from all available sources. Tremont & Sheldon has been recognized as a leader in workers' compensation throughout the state of Connecticut.

- Medical Malpractice

The medical malpractice attorneys at Tremont & Sheldon have represented malpractice claims ranging from unnecessary surgery; failure to diagnose cancer; failure to urgently treat heart conditions; leaving surgical instruments in the body; improper delivery of babies; performing the wrong operation; and failing to properly supervise or administer anesthesia. The medical malpractice lawyers at Tremont & Sheldon have been able to obtain millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for persons injured through the negligence of doctors and hospitals over the years. The key to our success is the ability of our lawyers to know about medicine to intelligently cross-examine the doctors and read between the lines of hospital records. Please contact the medical malpractice lawyers at Tremont & Sheldon to evaluate your case.

- Legal Malpractice

The Connecticut malpractice attorneys at Tremont & Sheldon are skilled in handling legal malpractice cases. A number of years ago our firm had to decide if we would be one of the few law firms in the state of Connecticut to bring claims on behalf of persons who were financially damaged by an attorney's neglect or dishonesty. We concluded that it would be hypocritical of us to require doctors, motorists, and manufacturers to follow the law, but allow lawyers to break the law and get away with it. Tremont & Sheldon is recognized throughout the state of Connecticut as a leader in legal malpractice. Please contact the legal malpractice lawyers at Tremont & Sheldon to evaluate your case.

- Wrongful Death

Wrongful death occurs if the death of a loved one was caused by someone's "wrongful conduct", such as by medical malpractice, a motor vehicle collision, construction injury, or defective product. Immediate family members of the deceased can seek compensation for their losses. Wrongful death may result in financial difficulties resulting from lost income and medical expenses. The law also allows you to recover for emotional losses, including loss of companionship, love, and affection. Recovery for these damages may include both past and future losses. The lawyers at Tremont & Sheldon have been able to recover significant compensation for their clients in wrongful death lawsuits. Please contact the wrongful death lawyers at Tremont & Sheldon to evaluate your case.
