At Trantolo & Trantolo, we understand, we ride too. Our family has been riding for over 50 years and we are proud to represent and support Connecticut’s motorcycle community. Many members of our staff ride as well, so we are the best people to help if you’ve been injured in an accident. We care about your safety and do not want to see our fellow motorcycle enthusiasts get hurt. If you or a loved one have been the victim of a motorcycle accident, give us a call at any of our Connecticut locations or fill out a form on our website for a free case consultation. We encourage you all to be careful and use the many resources available to you to stay informed when riding on two wheels.
