John Jay Pavano has practiced in the field of accident and personal injury law since his admission to the Connecticut bar in 1994. Having his family roots in Hartford County, he concentrated his first eight years of practice serving the Greater Hartford area. His proven commitment to his clients and growing experience as a trial lawyer made him a perfect fit for Faulkner and Boyce and he was therefore welcomed into the firm in 2002 and attained partner status in 2004.

Pavano brought with him a substantial and loyal Hartford County clientele prompting the New London based firm to open its second office in Plainville. Pavano is available to meet with clients at either office. In addition to all forms of personal injury matters, Pavano handles worker's compensation cases and DWI/DUI defense matters in criminal court and at DMV administrative hearings.

Pavano received his undergraduate degree from the University of Connecticut and his juris doctorate from Quinnipiac University. He is an active member of the Connecticut Bar Association, the Connecticut Trial Lawyer’s Association, and the Association of Trial Lawyers of America. Additionally, Pavano continues to serve as General Counsel to the Connecticut State Police Academy Alumni Association to which post he was appointed in 1998.

Pavano lives with his wife and daughter in Glastonbury.
