About

Mills & Cahill, LLC

The Mills Law Firm, LLC stands apart because of the experience of our attorneys, the quality and integrity of our practice, and our willingness to go to trial rather than accept inadequate compensation for a client through a quick settlement.

Based in New Haven, Connecticut, our firm offers quality representation to individuals who are injured and to families who have lost a loved one due to a personal injury accident or negligence. We seek full and fair compensation for clients from Bridgeport, Stamford, Hartford, Milford, Hartford, Waterbury, and throughout New Haven, Fairfield, as well as all of the shoreline towns of eastern Connecticut.

Strong Representation

We try many cases, and we receive many referrals from other attorneys when they cannot reach an acceptable settlement. While the majority of our cases are settled out of court, we provide thorough investigation of accidents and assemble the best experts to make the case on our clients'behalf. This result is the maximum compensation to fully cover losses in a personal injury or wrongful death.

    Recommends this Lawfirm

    Working with Mills Law Firm was an exceptionally positive experience for myself and my family. My initial expectation was that the process was going to intensify the stress and pressure we were feeling that lead me to the office. This was NOT the case at all. Attorney Mills made me feel at ease and comfortable from our first meeting and lead me through the process every step of the way to a successful outcome. I would highly recommend this firm as they consistently display the integrity and professionalism necessary to produce the positive results I experienced. Attorney Mills’ experience and support was instrumental in the outcome of our case.

    I have recommended the Mills & Cahill law firm to anyone needing an attorney for many years. They are highly skilled legal professionals with integrity. You are more than a “client”, Jack and his team address your case as if you were one of their own. They listen to your concerns, provide knowledgeable and sound legal counsel, and strive to make a difference in the lives of their clients.
