The Firm
Experience. Preparation.Results that matter.
Kenny, O'Keefe & Usseglio is a Hartford law firm devoted to personal injury, medical malpractice and wrongful death litigation. For decades we have helped clients across Connecticut and New England recover compensation — and hold negligent parties accountable.
We are trial lawyers first. That means we build every case as though it is going to a jury, because that is what earns a fair resolution — whether the case settles or is tried to verdict. Our clients are people, not file numbers, and they hear from the attorney handling their case.

Focused on the cases that matter most
Trial-Ready
Prepared like trial lawyers.Trusted for serious cases.
Most personal injury cases resolve without a verdict. They resolve on better terms when the other side knows your lawyer is willing and able to try the case. We have the experience, the resources and the courtroom skill to take on major insurers and corporate defendants.
Board-Certified Trial Advocacy
Our trial practice includes certification in Civil Trial Advocacy by the National Board of Trial Advocacy, a distinction earned through documented trial experience, peer review and examination.
Sexual Abuse Claims
Representation for survivors,handled with discretion.
We represent people harmed by sexual abuse and assault — in schools, youth programs, churches, medical settings, workplaces and residential care facilities — and we pursue the institutions whose failures allowed it to happen. Every conversation is confidential, and you decide the pace.
- Institutional and clergy abuse
- Abuse in nursing and residential care
- School, coach and youth-program abuse
- Claims involving minors and adult survivors
“We are committed to seeking accountability, answers, and meaningful change when advocating for our clients.”

Confidential Survivor Intake
Sexual abuse claims are reviewed privately by our office — never a call center.
Connecticut law gives survivors extended time to file. There is no cost to ask.
