Our Firm

Silver Golub & Teitell LLP ("SGT") is a boutique Connecticut law firm dedicated to plaintiffs' litigation. Since 1978, we've pursued life-changing cases both in Connecticut and nationwide. We take only significant cases, and we're unafraid to invest the resources, time, and expertise that others can't or won't.

SGT pioneered resource-intensive medical-malpractice and personal-injury litigation, earning us recognition throughout Connecticut. That's why nearly all our medical-malpractice and personal-injury clients are referred by judges, former clients, and other lawyers familiar with our work.

Our class action and complex litigation practices represent individuals, businesses, institutional investors, family offices, and government entities in all types of class-action and complex litigation at both trial and appellate levels. We frequently file cutting-edge cases on emerging issues nationwide, achieving landmark results and recovering billions for our clients. Because of our success and national reputation, SGT is often appointed lead counsel in high-value class actions where real people have suffered avoidable, life-altering consequences.

SGT also prides itself on leadership within the legal community. Our named partners—Richard Silver, David S. Golub, and Ernie Teitell—have taught trial practice at Yale Law School and Quinnipiac University School of Law. Several of our partners have served as presidents of the Connecticut Trial Lawyers Association (CTLA). SGT is listed among the “Best Law Firms” by U.S. News – Best Lawyers. Many of our attorneys hold Martindale-Hubbell's AV Preeminent rating—the highest peer review available. Additionally, SGT attorneys are regularly named Connecticut Super Lawyers by Connecticut Magazine, included in The Best Lawyers in America, and consistently listed in the Martindale-Hubbell Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers.
