No Fee Unless We Win — Personal Injury Cases

Three Offices: Groton · Guilford · New Haven | Statewide and Virtual Consultations Available

Serving East Lyme Residents Across Every Major Practice Area

East Lyme sits at the center of a stretch of Connecticut coastline where serious accidents happen on Route 156, I-95, and the roads connecting the shoreline towns. When those accidents happen, or when a family law matter or criminal charge demands attention, East Lyme residents need a firm that knows this region and knows how to win. That is what Mission Focus Legal Group provides. We handle personal injury cases on contingency — you pay nothing unless we recover — and we bring the same focused approach to family law and criminal defense matters throughout New London County.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer in East Lyme Can Do for Your Case

Most accident victims in East Lyme are dealing with insurance adjusters within days of their injury. Those adjusters work for the carrier, not for you. Our job is to build the strongest possible case for your recovery — documenting injuries, gathering evidence, and negotiating from a position of strength. If the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we take the case to court. Our personal injury representation is on a contingency fee basis, which means there is no upfront cost and no fee unless we recover money for you.

 

The personal injury cases we handle for East Lyme clients include:

 

Family Law Representation for East Lyme Families

Divorce, child custody disputes, and alimony proceedings are among the most difficult legal matters a family can face. Our family law attorneys work with East Lyme clients to protect their interests at every stage — from negotiating parenting plans to litigating contested divorces when necessary. We also handle military divorce matters for service members and spouses connected to Naval Submarine Base New London, applying the specific federal and state rules that govern military pension division, BAH, and deployment-related custody arrangements.

Criminal Defense for East Lyme Residents

A first-time DUI, an assault charge, or a domestic violence allegation can follow you for years if it is not handled correctly from the start. We represent East Lyme clients facing lower-level criminal charges with the goal of achieving the most favorable outcome possible — whether that means dismissal, a reduced charge, or a resolution that keeps a conviction off your record. We do not treat criminal defense as a secondary practice. Every client gets a defense built on the facts of their specific case.

A Marine Corps Background That Matters

Keith Anthony is a U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Major with nearly 20 years of service, including four years as an active-duty JAG prosecutor handling courts-martial. That background shapes how we approach every case: direct, disciplined, and focused on outcome.

Frequently Asked Questions from East Lyme Residents

  • Do I need a personal injury lawyer if the other driver's insurance already contacted me?

    Yes. Insurance adjusters are trained to settle claims quickly and for as little as possible. Before you accept any offer or provide a recorded statement, speak with a personal injury lawyer. An early settlement offer rarely reflects the full value of your injuries, lost wages, and long-term costs.

  • How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in East Lyme?

    Nothing upfront. We handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means our fee comes out of the recovery only if we win. If we do not recover compensation for you, you owe us nothing.

  • Can Mission Focus Legal Group handle my case if I live in East Lyme but the accident happened somewhere else in Connecticut?

    Yes. We represent clients throughout Connecticut regardless of where the accident occurred. Our offices in Groton, Guilford, and New Haven allow us to serve clients across a wide geographic area, and virtual consultations are available for clients who prefer not to travel.

  • What family law services do you provide for East Lyme residents?

    We handle divorce, military divorce, child custody, and alimony matters for clients in East Lyme and throughout New London County. If your case involves a service member connected to Naval Submarine Base New London, we have specific experience with the federal and state rules that apply to military family law.
