Big News for Laviano & Gagne, LLC
2025 Clio Legal Impact Award Finalist
We are excited to share again that Laviano & Gagne made the shortlist for the 2025 Legal Impact Award from Clio. As this award is determined by community votes, we would greatly appreciate it if you could take a moment to cast your vote for us.
One of the reasons we are so excited about this honor is that it gives us a chance to highlight this little-known practice area to literally tens of thousands of law firms. We hope that this will draw more attention to practitioners who might be interested and willing in helping the families we care about not just in Connecticut, but throughout the country. So, we would truly appreciate it, if you would share this link on social media and with your families and friends, and ask them to vote for our firm, if you're comfortable doing so.
