  • Personal Life

    Prior to starting his own law firm on July 1, 2013, Ken spent five years as a clerk and an associate at the law firm of Brown & Welsh, P.C. in Meriden, Connecticut. Ken and Wildaliz Bermudez married in 2012. They have a young child who deserves their privacy, although he would absolutely love to show you photos of the adorableness that is this little human being. Ken rides his bicycle to work every day: rain, snow, sleet, hail, and prized sunshine. In his spare time, Ken enjoys carpentry, snowboarding and the ocean.

Ken Krayeske resides in New Haven, Connecticut. Ken is licensed to practice law before the state and federal district courts in Connecticut and United States Appeals Court for the Second Circuit.


Ken was lead counsel on the Hepatitis C class action, Barfield v. Quiros, that forced the Connecticut Department of Correction to spend $40 million to test more than 20,000 people and cure more than 1,000 people of the deadly liver disease. In other complex federal civil rights cases, Ken has won multiple seven figure settlements from the CT DOC for failure to provide proper medical care to prisoners.


In July 2012, Connecticut’s only municipal public campaign finance system, the New Haven Democracy Fund, appointed Ken its administrator, a position he held for two years. He ran his own firm for almost 10 years before joining BBB Attorneysin 2023.


The Connecticut Law Tribune recently named Ken to its editorial board. Ken graduated from the University of Connecticut School of Law in 2010 and from Syracuse University’s Newhouse School of Public Communications in 1994. Prior to joining the bar, Ken was an award-winning journalist, writing for daily, weekly and monthly newspapers and magazines. He focused on youth journalism, starting Echoes from The Streets Youth Newspaper.
