Military Law Services Near Naval Submarine Base New London
The Sub Base is the largest employer in the region, and the legal needs of service members and their families are distinct from civilian matters. UCMJ proceedings, military divorce, administrative separation boards — these require an attorney who understands how the military justice system actually works from the inside.
Attorney Anthony prosecuted courts-martial for four years on active duty. He continues to serve in the Marine Corps Reserve. That background is not a marketing point — it is direct, relevant experience that changes how we approach your case.
Family Law and Criminal Defense in New London County
Beyond personal injury and military law, we represent clients in New London County across several additional practice areas. Family court proceedings — divorce, child custody, alimony — are handled with the same direct, results-focused approach we bring to every case. For individuals facing first-offense criminal charges such as DUI, assault, or domestic violence, we focus on efficient resolution and protecting your record.
Downtown New London and Bank Street
The downtown core sees heavy pedestrian and bicycle traffic, particularly near the ferry terminals and Connecticut College. Distracted drivers, failure-to-yield incidents, and poorly maintained sidewalks create consistent hazard points. If you were hit by a vehicle or injured on a commercial property in this area, you may have a viable claim.
New London Harbor and Waterfront Areas
Waterfront properties carry premises liability exposure when walkways, docks, or public access areas are not properly maintained. Slip and fall injuries in these environments are common and often go unpursued because victims don't realize the property owner may be responsible.
Naval Submarine Base New London Perimeter
Service members and contractors traveling to and from the Sub Base in Groton face elevated accident risk on Route 12 and Gold Star Highway during peak commute hours. We regularly represent clients injured on these routes and understand the intersection of military and civilian legal considerations that can arise when active-duty personnel are involved.

Frequently Asked Questions from New London Accident Victims
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer in New London, CT?
We handle personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means there is no upfront cost to you. We only collect a fee if we recover compensation on your behalf. Your initial consultation is always free.How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Connecticut?
In most cases, Connecticut law gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing that deadline typically forecloses your right to recover, so it's important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident.Can I still recover compensation if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Connecticut follows a modified comparative fault rule. As long as you are not found to be more than 50% responsible for the accident, you can still recover compensation — though your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault. An attorney can help you assess how fault is likely to be allocated in your case.Do you represent military service members stationed at the Sub Base in New London area?
Yes. We regularly represent active-duty service members and their families from Naval Submarine Base New London. Attorney Anthony's background as a JAG prosecutor and Marine Corps Reserve Major gives us direct experience with UCMJ matters, military divorce, and the specific legal challenges that service members face.What types of damages can I recover after a car accident in New London?
Recoverable damages in a Connecticut personal injury case typically include medical expenses, lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, pain and suffering, and property damage. The specific damages available depend on the facts of your case and the severity of your injuries.
