Our Firm

The attorneys at Howard, Kohn, Sprague & FitzGerald are widely recognized as among the state’s most experienced trial lawyers, with a long and highly regarded track record in all phases of civil litigation, including pretrial, trial and appellate work in both state and federal courts.

In fact, the firm’s partners have tried numerous jury cases, and the firm, on average, tries more cases per year than considerably larger firms.

Equally important, the HKSF team has experience in virtually all areas of civil litigation, including negligence, product liability, professional malpractice, insurance, labor and employment, commercial, real estate and land use litigation. The firm’s lawyers have distinguished themselves in the prosecution and defense of claims arising from automobile accidents, defective products, wrongful termination, defective premises, professional negligence – and more.

But don’t take our word for it. Ask HKSF clients, from one of the many insurers and self-insured entities we have represented, or a business owner facing a “bet the company” lawsuit, or an accident victim seeking fair compensation for a serious injury, or the many other lawyers who refer clients to us when those clients are being sued or need to prosecute a claim. They will attest to the firm’s commitment to representing their best interests – aggressively, creatively and professionally. And that includes an ability to settle cases on favorable terms, as many of our clients well know. And although Howard, Kohn, Sprague & FitzGerald is a firm including some of the most experienced board-certified trial lawyers in Connecticut, we also take pride in our ability to represent clients in arbitration, mediation and administrative agency hearings. In short, we pride ourselves on having the wisdom to negotiate…and the ability to litigate.
