In April of 2020 my wife and I found ourselves in a situation we’d never thought we would be in. We were devastated by what had transpired, embarrassed, and worse yet, the court system dragged our case out for 18 months because of a backlog from the pandemic. Trent was the consummate professional t...hroughout. He understood my wishes to protect not just myself but my wife from the court system and that we wanted discretion. He advised me on how to put my best foot forward with the Family Services, he was present on every call, following up with them when the court system and public services dropped the ball. I’m really pleased that on the day of our plea hearing, we fortunately did not have to step foot into that courtroom. Trent held a sidebar with the powers that be, which I could only assume is a state prosecutor and the judge, and convinced them to abandon the charges (nolle prosequi). It was also reaffirming to me that Trent is well known and highly regarded amongst his peers and the court. I observed this on several occasions on court appointments and so it’s fair to say that that our favorable outcome wasn’t the result so much of serendipity as it was more likely due to his legal adeptness and acuity, and his professional reputation. Thank you Trent.

My family and I had a wonderful experience dealing with Trent and his office. Not only did he get us best case scenario for sentencing, he was pleasant to deal and responsive when we had questions. covid made things more complicated but he accommodated with Virtual meetings whenever needed. We felt h...is fee was reasonable for what we had to deal with. His knowledge of the Hartford judicial system and team is extremely helpful!! We would highly recommend him. Although we hope we don't need to hire him again, we certainly will if necessary. Thank you Trent!

Trent LaLima showed his passion for law from the second I spoke with him about my case. He fights for the best possible outcome for his clients and is eager to succeed in helping both in and out of the court room. Trent was always ready to take a phone call, respond to emails, and even meet and answe...r any questions I had before and after hearings. That does not even begin to touch on all of his efforts behind the scenes. He is extremely knowledgeable, honest, and hardworking. He knows how to build a solid, structured defense to then bring and deliver it to the court. I am extremely grateful to have found and worked with a lawyer that went above and beyond for such a period of time and put my best interest at the forefront. Trent got my life back to normal. He is an amazing attorney, and I would recommend him for anyone requiring these services.
