At Hurwitz Sagarin & Slossberg, we combine the rigor and reach of a large firm with the focus, agility, and personal attention of a boutique practice. Based in Milford, with a practice throughout Connecticut, we are trusted for our ability to navigate high-stakes commercial and civil disputes. It is our mission to do so with tenacity, precision, strategy, and judgment honed over decades of experience. We welcome challenging trial work, knowing that our fearlessness in the courtroom increases the chances of reaching favorable settlements before trial.
A Commitment to Excellence
Since our founding in 1967, HS&S has built a reputation for sophisticated advocacy and unwavering professionalism. Our attorneys include former federal and state law clerks and lawyers from leading regional and national firms. Together, we are committed to bringing an exceptional level of insight to every matter, whether before Connecticut’s state and federal courts, in arbitration and mediation, before administrative agencies or in complex negotiations.
We approach each case with purpose: to distill complexity into clarity and to deliver results that stand the test of scrutiny.
Leadership in Business and CUTPA Litigation
Hurwitz Sagarin & Slossberg has been recognized as a leader in business and commercial litigation involving unfair trade practices, antitrust and business torts. Our lawyers have helped shape the law under the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act (CUTPA), regularly litigating cutting edge issues at the trial court level and persuading the Connecticut Supreme Court to reject the first major challenge in nearly four decades to the Cigarette Rule standard for assessing the fairness of business conduct under CUTPA.
Our leadership extends beyond the courtroom. Members of the firm serve as long-standing co-authors of Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices, Business Torts and Antitrust – the definitive treatise in this field. This continuing authorship and our approach to business cases reflect our deep engagement with the law’s evolution and our commitment to advancing its thoughtful application.
High-Profile Individual and Class Action Representation
HS&S has earned a reputation for taking on powerful institutions when individuals or groups have been wronged. Our attorneys have led and successfully resolved high-profile individual and class action cases against corporations, financial institutions, and public entities whose conduct caused significant harm.
We represent clients in matters involving consumer protection, employment rights, privacy, and unfair business practices – cases that often carry both personal impact and broader public importance.
Serving as Local Counsel
Hurwitz Sagarin & Slossberg is frequently retained as local counsel by national and international firms seeking nuanced guidance in Connecticut law or local court procedures. In this capacity, we provide strategic support, manage filings, facilitate court appearances, and ensure seamless coordination with lead counsel.

Our experience as local counsel allows us to bridge the gap between larger firms and the unique procedural landscape of Connecticut, providing clients with confidence that their interests are represented thoroughly and efficiently.
Recognition and Distinction

Rooted in Milford, Engaged Across the Northeast
Our firm’s strength is inseparable from our community. For more than 50 years, HS&S has called Milford home, and our attorneys remain deeply involved in professional and civic life in Connecticut. We serve and have served in leadership positions with the Connecticut Bar Association, the Federal Bar Council, and the Public Outreach Committee of the District of Connecticut. Beyond the legal sector, our lawyers contribute time and expertise to organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League, and Devon Rotary.
Our connection to our community shapes who we are and how we practice: anchored in service, guided by principle, and committed to making a difference both inside and outside the courtroom.
At Hurwitz Sagarin & Slossberg, we believe that complex litigation demands more than skill; it requires clarity, foresight, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
