Lawyer Overview

Joshua Koskoff represents the third generation of Koskoffs at KK&B. Known for his dedication, compassion and creativity Josh brings all of his cases a fresh and unique perspective. He believes strongly in the role of the law as an agent to improve his client's lives. His personal concern for the welfare of each of his clients has won their trust and devotion.

In October 2003, Josh received a 10 million dollar verdict from a Bridgeport jury in a case where the insurance company had offered 0 money. In that case, Josh represented the widow of a 49-year-old man who died because his heart condition was misdiagnosed. The verdict – one of the largest in Connecticut history – included a 4 million dollar award for the widow's loss of consortium. The loss of consortium award is the largest of its kind in Connecticut history.

In April 2003, Josh won an $810,000 award from a Stamford jury on behalf of an 89-year-old woman whose doctor botched a surgery to repair a leg fracture causing even further fractures. The insurance company had refused to settle the case years earlier for $500,000, and never offered a red cent until the time of trial at which point, it offered less than the medical bills.

Josh's earlier courtroom experience includes numerous complex medical malpractice claims as well as other negligence cases. He received a 1.1 million dollar award from a New Britain jury for a 72-year-old woman who lost vision in one eye following a cataract procedure. In March 2001, he received an $800,000 jury verdict in Litchfield for a man who suffered a stroke after being sent home from an emergency department. He was co-counsel in a courtroom victory in New Britain in 1999 that resulted in a jury award of 2.2 million dollars. Josh also successfully handled complex litigation concerning the highly publicized crash of a medi-vac helicopter resulting in a multi-million dollar settlement.

Josh has also handled several other complex medical malpractice trials resulting in settlements in excess of one million dollars.

Josh is a graduate of Syracuse University and the Suffolk University School of Law.
