An Experienced Litigation and Trial Attorney

Attorney Bennett’s trial experience spans more than 20 years. In fact, he tried his first jury trial case on the day he passed the bar exam more than 20 years ago. He started as a prosecutor and then moved to one of Connecticut’s largest litigation firms before forming Aeton Law Partners.

He has recovered millions of dollars for his clients and has received numerous defense verdicts for small and medium sized business in jury trials throughout Connecticut and Massachusetts. 

What His Clients Say

“We found AETON through a google search. We were in the process of selecting a law firm for our company’s complex litigation matter. From our very first visit, we were very impressed with Kane Bennett, we knew that AETON was the firm we would move ahead with. Kane Bennett was our point of contact and he is very knowledgeable, thorough and presents every strategic option available to his clients. His strategy is top-notch and has left the opposing counsels surprised and unprepared a number of times.”

“I become involved in a legal dispute with a business partner that required legal representation in Connecticut. After some internet research, I retained Aeton Law Partners LLP based on Kane Bennett’s experience in the courtroom as a prosecutor and their good understanding of business and technology issues. I definitely appreciated having Kane on my side, guiding me through this long and difficult–and ultimately successful–process, always providing great advice and counsel.”
