About Wendi
Wendi Kowarik earned her law degree from The Catholic University of America in 1983. Her legal education at a national law school set the stage for a long career in state practice. The year on her diploma marks the start of a professional life spent largely inside Connecticut’s courtrooms and offices.
She is admitted to practice in Connecticut. Over the years she has taken on roles that combine casework and supervision. Her title is Supervising Lawyer at Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers, where she oversees the handling of personal injury matters and the day-to-day work of other lawyers and staff. That supervisory role places her in the middle of case strategy, file management and client communication.
Kowarik’s career path reflects steady progression from lawyer to manager. She has worked from the firm’s Hartford and New Haven offices. Those locations connect her to both the state’s capital and a major coastal legal market. In those offices she handles a range of tasks typical for senior litigators: directing investigations, preparing pleadings, guiding settlement discussions and mentoring less-experienced attorneys.
Colleagues and clients see Kowarik as a practical presence. She approaches cases with attention to procedure and to evidence. Her work requires juggling deadlines, coordinating with medical providers and keeping clients informed through slow-moving legal processes. The supervising role also asks her to shape how cases are staffed and how resources are allocated across a busy injury practice.
Outside of case files, Kowarik’s experience lends itself to training and oversight. Supervising lawyers often draft office policies, review work product and ensure that ethical and procedural standards are met. In those tasks she plays the kind of senior role that helps a firm maintain consistent practice across its offices.
As a veteran of Connecticut practice who graduated law school in the early 1980s, Kowarik brings long-term perspective to disputes that can span months or years. She works from Jonathan Perkins Injury Lawyers’ Hartford and New Haven offices, where her responsibilities include supervising litigation and supporting client advocacy. Her current practice concentrates on representing injured individuals at the firm’s Hartford and New Haven offices.
