About Carter Mario
Carter Mario has been practicing law in Connecticut for over 39 years. He attended college at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill on a full wrestling scholarship and from there went to law school at Stetson University College of Law in St. Pete, Florida. He chose to return to his hometown of Milford, Connecticut to start his practice. As Founder and President of Carter Mario Injury Lawyers, Carter has spearheaded tremendous growth.
What started in a one-room office has grown into Connecticut’s largest personal injury law firm with six, fully staffed offices across the state. “We’re big enough to go against any insurance company but small enough to care about our clients,” said Carter. “Our growth has been possible because of the excellence, care, and compassion with which we have served thousands of clients. Everything we do is about putting clients first,” Carter said.
“That is the foundation of the firm. I love when the representation ends with a fully satisfied client that we have helped to make a positive difference in their life.” “I have built my career on helping injured individuals to rebuild their lives.
That’s what brought me to focus my practice on personal injury. No two personal injury clients or cases are exactly the same. Each one of us has a different story to tell.
