Slager Madry

Putting People First

Since Day One

Slager Madry is a Connecticut law firm focused on helping people pursue high-stakes cases arising from life-changing events. We emphasize honesty and ethics, combined with tenacious advocacy for our clients and a proven track record of consistent success.

At Slager Madry, helping victims and families isn’t just part of what we do — it’s all we do. Our firm is a deeply experienced, battle-tested team of lawyers who have handled some of the most significant cases in Connecticut. Through careful review and vetting of potential cases, we limit our law practice to litigation involving only important injustices that have had severe consequences. This allows us to devote our considerable resources to helping clients achieve successful results while preventing similar avoidable events from happening to someone else.

Our experience is wide-ranging, but our lawyers have a special focus on the most severe personal injury, medical malpractice, financial loss, and wrongful death cases throughout Connecticut. When you meet us, you will notice a difference, both in the way we analyze your potential case and in how you are treated by our lawyers and staff.

We combine decades of experience handling the most complicated cases with an unwavering commitment to putting people first.

Whether you have concerns about potential medical malpractice, have suffered serious personal or financial injury, or have lost a loved one under unsettling circumstances, we can help determine whether you have a valid legal claim under Connecticut law. We consider it our responsibility to help you make smart decisions and guide you through the process from start to finish. If we accept your case, we will pursue it thoughtfully and relentlessly to secure a result that honors you and your experience.

Why Choose Us?

Here’s What You Can Expect from

Our Team

We have significant experience representing clients in serious and complex cases. To ensure that our clients only pursue meritorious cases, we carefully review every potential case before deciding whether we can help. In assessing cases, we value quality over quantity and we limit the number of cases we accept so we can give our cases the attention required. This allows us to keep our commitment to provide you with personalized, one-on-one representation. In every case, our goal is to secure just compensation and also accomplish social good.

We will quickly launch an investigation, thoroughly examine all available evidence, and identify responsible parties who should be potential sources of compensation. We will also deal with the insurance companies for you and prepare your lawsuit in a way that best positions the case for trial or settlement. Once we accept your case, we are 100% committed. You will have regular contact with your lawyers. We reject the common practice of delegating most client contact to non-lawyer staff.

When we say we put people first, we mean it. When you choose Slager Madry LLC to handle your case, you become a part of our extended family. Beyond being committed to your case, we will also help with other aspects of your recovery. If we can help you in any way, we encourage you to reach out, and we will do everything we can to help ensure that the stress, costs, and other consequences you face are as limited as possible.

Slager Madry LLC’s lawyers are committed to developing relationships and working closely with all of our clients. As a firm client, you will receive advice and representation that is custom-tailored to your case and specific circumstances. Our attorneys will be here for you when you have questions. We will sit down with you to discuss your options and ensure that you are making informed decisions.

From the free consultation to the costs of our legal representation to what you can realistically expect from your case, we always provide complete transparency. We will discuss our contingency fee and cost structure with you before you hire us, and we will frankly assess your prospects for success before you emotionally invest in moving forward. This is what we would expect ourselves, so this is what we provide to you.

Testimonials

I will never forget how you heard me, and really listened to me when everything first transpired in the weeks following my father’s death. I was still so rattled and exhausted, but you believed me and understood what I was saying. I have never forgotten that. I felt that way from the very beginning and I am ever grateful that you listened to me with respect and compassion. Thank you for your continued work to bring some justice to the [...] - Current Client
I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your dedication and unwavering support throughout the process of settling my case. It has been a long journey, but your belief in me and my injuries never wavered. In addition to your incredible work, I also want to thank your amazing team. Their hard work, responsiveness, and attention to detail made all the difference. Together, you ensured that every step of this complex process was handled with care [...] - Former Client
Thank you for your work. I held onto a newspaper clipping with your name on it for a very long time before I had the courage to contact you. Before I met you, I was terrified because I feared I would not be able to escape what happened to me, no matter how hard I tried. You helped relieve the weight on my shoulders in a single phone call. My past was no longer mine to bear alone. Thank you [...] - Former Client
I could not be happier that Slager Madry agreed to represent me. I first started working with Attorney Coates because she came highly recommended by a colleague. I’m so grateful for that recommendation. Since then, I’ve also worked with both Attorneys Madry and Slager: Each of these attorneys has always given me their undivided attention and respect, and my experience with this firm is completely different from my experiences with other lawyers I considered hiring.
