Louden, Katz, McGrath & Bryan LLC

What Louden, Katz, McGrath & Bryan LLC does

Louden, Katz, McGrath & Bryan LLC, operating as LMBB Family Law, is a Hartford, Connecticut-based law firm organized as a Connecticut LLC and specializing exclusively in matrimonial and family law. The firm was founded in 2017 by David McGrath, Robert Katz, and Bruce Louden and has since grown to nine attorneys plus one paralegal, with Edward Bryan joining as partner in January 2024 and Kathryn Bissonnette joining as partner in January 2026. Its practice spans the full lifecycle of family law matters — premarital and postnuptial agreements, divorce, custody and parenting disputes, child and spousal support, complex financial cases including QDRO preparation, post-divorce modifications, and relocation matters — alongside alternative dispute resolution services in collaborative divorce, arbitration, and mediation.

The firm's underlying technology footprint is minimal: a WordPress-based website, social media presence on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and the Connecticut Family Case Law Blog, an attorney-edited resource providing appellate case summaries that functions as a credibility and top-of-funnel marketing asset. There is no proprietary software product, API, or AI/ML tooling disclosed. The firm's competitive position is built on attorney expertise and reputation rather than on technology.

Revenue is generated through hourly professional-services billing on individual client engagements, with pricing not publicly disclosed and clients engaged via direct consultation (in-person, phone at 860.231.7150, or email). The go-to-market motion is sales-led and referral-driven, drawing on attorney reputation, professional bar association involvement, the case-law blog, client testimonials, and word-of-mouth from other attorneys. The customer base consists entirely of individual Connecticut residents seeking representation in family law matters, with the entire revenue base concentrated in a single state and a single practice area.
