“Without a doubt, the go to firm for anyone from the Waterbury area! The Etemi Law Injury Lawyers team has gotten me and anyone I’ve referred to them a great settlement.”
At Etemi Law Injury Lawyers, we are proud to represent injured people and families in Waterbury, New Haven County, and communities throughout Connecticut. Our founders, brothers Ron and Lou Etemi, were born and raised in Waterbury, attended the city’s public schools, and grew up in a local immigrant family. Our connection to the area shapes how we treat every client: with personal attention, clear communication, and a commitment to the community we call home. We maintain offices in Waterbury, Watertown, and New Haven, making our legal team accessible to clients across the region. When someone needs a personal injury lawyer, we provide local representation backed by a statewide litigation practice.
We bring more than 30 years of combined experience to personal injury claims involving car accidents, commercial truck crashes, wrongful death, medical malpractice, defective products, dog attacks, workplace accidents, and catastrophic injuries. Founder Ron Etemi has practiced law since 2010, litigated hundreds of cases, and recovered millions of dollars through settlements and verdicts. Before founding the firm, he worked in insurance defense and served as an appellate law clerk, giving us valuable insight into how insurers and corporate defendants evaluate claims. Partner Lou Etemi has represented injured people since 2016 and has helped hundreds of clients resolve their cases. Together, we prepare every matter with detailed evidence, strategic negotiation, and trial in mind.
Our featured case results total more than $42 million, reflecting our work in cases ranging from motor vehicle collisions to life-changing injuries and wrongful deaths. Those results include a $24.5 million wrongful death judgment, a $5.5 million wrongful death judgment, a $2.49 million commercial motor vehicle recovery, a $1.6 million tractor-trailer result, and a $1.2 million motor vehicle arbitration award. We have also achieved substantial recoveries in car accident, spinal injury, hit-and-run, and dog bite cases. Although every claim is different and prior results cannot predict a future outcome, we bring the same preparation and determination to each client we represent.
We understand that medical expenses, lost income, and calls from insurance companies can place additional pressure on an injured person. That is why we offer free consultations, remain available 24/7, and handle injury cases on a contingency-fee basis, so clients pay no attorney’s fee unless we recover compensation for them.

We begin investigating promptly to preserve evidence and identify applicable deadlines.

Contact us today for a free consultation about your car accident claim.
We may pursue a claim against a property owner, tenant, business operator, property manager, maintenance contractor, or another party that created a dangerous condition or controlled the area where the fall occurred. We examine who was responsible for the property, whether that party knew or should have known about the hazard, and whether reasonable steps were taken to address it. Contact us today so we can review your slip-and-fall accident and identify the potentially responsible parties.
Yes, we may hold a trucking company liable when its driver causes an accident while performing job duties, and the company may also be responsible for negligent hiring, training, supervision, maintenance, loading, or safety practices.

We help families understand who may serve as the estate representative, what damages they may pursue, and whether related claims are available. Etemi Law Injury Lawyers has obtained wrongful death judgments of $24.5 million and $5 million, although every case depends on its unique facts. Contact us today to discuss your family’s legal options in a confidential consultation.
Homeowners or renters insurance often provides liability coverage for dog bite injuries, but available compensation depends on the policy limits, exclusions, location of the attack, and other circumstances. We review every potentially applicable policy and pursue compensation for medical bills, scarring, lost income, emotional trauma, and other damages. Our dog bite case results include a $475,000 recovery, although past results do not predict the outcome of another case. Contact us today for a free review of your dog bite claim.
