Based upon the Firm's extensive trial experience in state and federal courts, we are often asked to serve as local counsel for clients who need to commence or defend litigation in Connecticut. Typically, these requests develop from out of state firms which retain the primary responsibility for the litigation. Sandak Hennessey & Greco has assisted out-of-state counsel in wide range of cases including complex commercial disputes, securities cases, insurance coverage disputes, toxic tort cases, class actions, personal injury and medical malpractice matters. Based on the preferences of the client and out-of-state counsel, the Firm can take on as expansive or as limited a role as a case requires.
On multi-state transactional matters, Sandak Hennessey & Greco often serves as Connecticut counsel to develop the necessary opinion letters interpreting the application of Connecticut law to the client's transaction.
