Angelo Ziotas is a leading trial lawyer who has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for his clients in civil matters in Connecticut in the past 35 years. He represents plaintiffs in medical malpractice cases, serious personal injury claims and business disputes.

Angelo has won more than 40 trials and his clients have received jury verdicts exceeding $1 million in medical malpractice actions, motor vehicle collisions, drownings, an elevator accident and an insurance “bad faith” suit. These verdicts include a $38.5 million jury award to compensate a young boy who suffered severe neurological injuries during childbirth, which, at the time of this verdict, was the largest in Connecticut history. He also represented the family of a young mother who was killed by a negligent tractor-trailer driver. The defendants settled after three weeks of trial, while the jury was deliberating, and paid a total of $19.75 million, one of Connecticut’s largest wrongful death settlements.

In addition to winning awards at trial, Angelo has settled cases totaling over $100 million in in the last 5 years, including $75 million in medical malpractice cases.

Because of his history of success, Angelo has become a “go to” lawyer for the people who know who to hire. He has represented many other lawyers, including the families of some of Connecticut’s leading defense attorneys, when they have needed help. He frequently lectures on trial practice, medical malpractice, traumatic brain injuries and other personal injury topics.

Angelo is a member of the American College of Trial Lawyers, the American Board of Trial Advocates and the International Academy of Trial Lawyers. He was board certified as a civil trial attorney by the National Board of Trial Advocacy in 1998 and has been recognized by his peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America* in the specialties of Medical Malpractice Law and Personal Injury Litigation since 2006.  He has also been included in Connecticut Super Lawyers* every year since its inception in 2006, including its list of “Top 50” Connecticut Super Lawyers and “Top 100” New England Super Lawyers.

He is a past President of the Connecticut Trial Lawyers Association and is on the Board of Governors of the American Association for Justice.
