About

Attorney Bruce Newman has been practicing law for over 25 years and concentrates his practice in the areas of personal injury, wrongful death, employment litigation, medical malpractice, product liability, and class actions where he has served as plaintiff's class counsel and liaison counsel. He is a Lifetime Member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, which is composed of a select group of lawyers who have achieved million dollar verdicts and settlements in personal injury and wrongful death cases. In addition to Connecticut, he has successfully tried cases in New York and California. Based on his accomplishments, Bruce Newman was selected by the National Trial Lawyers as a Top 100 Lawyer for 2013, 2014, and 2015. He was recently ranked as being in the Top 1% of all attorneys by the National Association of Distinguished Counsel. Attorney Newman presently serves as plaintiff's class counsel in an action where a tentative $6.5 million settlement was reached in Adkins, et al. v. Nestle Purina Petcare Company, et al., pending in US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.

He was also a signatory to a mediation agreement that resulted in a $24 million settlement in the Pet Food Product Liability Litigation. Every case is different as to facts and circumstances and results will vary from one case to another. The announcement of the results of any one particular case should not be taken as to imply, or guarantee, certain results in any other case.In addition to being a skilled advocate, Attorney Newman is a compassionate litigator and strives to give his clients personalized attention through the prosecution and handling of injury, accident and wrongful death claims. This is of course vital when the lives of individuals and loved ones have been dramatically changed through no fault of their own. Furthermore, through his experience in representing over 1,000 victims of accidents, he is familiar with the unique nature of all types of traumatic injuries and their long-term repercussions. Mr. Newman has been a guest lecturer at the UConn School of Law. He has served as a volunteer in the past in support of a number of organizations, including those supporting Veteran's causes and Boy Scouts of America.

Attorney Newman clearly displayed a professional attitude and had obvious care for my well-being. I found him to be highly knowledgeable, loyal and trusting. I referred my elderly mother to him and he again demonstrated genuine care and was always available to answer questions. In addition, Attorney Newman's staff was always pleasant and returned calls in a timely manner. I will continue to reccomend him and endorse his services to others. The Swan family of Manchester, CT. sincerely thank Attorney Newman for his professional character, his advocacy for us and his services. Respectfully, Donnie [removed by avvo staff]
