Medical bills arrive before the pain fades. Insurance calls start before you understand what you’re owed. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, you’re expected to make decisions that will affect your financial recovery for years. That’s the moment we built this firm to address.
We limit our practice to personal injury claims because people in those moments need focused legal support, not a firm splitting its attention across unrelated areas of law.
This video offers a look at the people behind the work and the care we bring to each client relationship.
A Practice Built Around Injury Claims
We handle car accidents, slip and falls, workplace incidents, and medical malpractice claims—nothing else. That focus shapes how we prepare a case, from reviewing police reports and medical records to communicating with insurance companies and tracking court deadlines.
No two injuries disrupt a life in the same way. We listen to what happened, examine the facts, and build a strategy around the records, witness accounts, and circumstances that matter to your specific claim. For a crash claim, that can mean reviewing evidence of distracted driving and pushing back when an insurer tries to shift blame onto you. In a medical malpractice case, it means closely reviewing treatment records and working with medical professionals to establish whether a preventable error caused harm.
Connecticut’s two-year statute of limitations for injury lawsuits isn’t the only deadline that matters—different claims carry different reporting and filing requirements. We track those dates, handle early insurer communications, and manage the paperwork so a missed deadline doesn’t cost you the right to pursue compensation.
You Can Talk to Us in English or Spanish
Every member of our staff speaks fluent English and Spanish. Clients can discuss their injuries, treatment, finances, and concerns in the language that feels natural to them, without relying on an outside translator for personal details.
We’re proudly Latino and one of the largest Hispanic personal injury firms in Connecticut. Our Hartford office and additional locations in Stratford, Waterbury, New Haven, and Bridgeport help us stay accessible to communities throughout the state.
We Keep You in the Loop at Every Step
Legal language shouldn’t stand between you and an informed decision. We explain your rights and the strengths and weaknesses of your claim in plain terms, then keep you updated as new information arrives or the other side responds. Questions get answered, deadlines get met—because you shouldn’t have to guess where your case stands or what happens next.
The people working on your case share one goal: handling the legal process with care while you focus on your health and your family. That’s not a tagline; it’s how the work gets done.
We’re Available When You Actually Need Us
Accidents don’t happen on a schedule, and neither do the questions that follow. We’re available by phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and we offer evening and weekend appointments for people who can’t meet during standard business hours.
We also offer free initial consultations and work on a contingency fee basis. There are no upfront costs or hourly fees to get started, and we collect a fee only from a settlement or verdict we recover for you—so you can get legal help without putting money you don’t have on the line.
If you’re trying to make sense of an injury and your options, Zayas Law Firm is here to listen. Call us at (860) 854-9156 to speak with our team in English or Spanish.
