Evidence and Liability Investigation

We secure time-sensitive evidence, such as surveillance footage and witness statements. Our team proves the other party’s fault to protect your recovery under Maine’s Modified Comparative Negligence laws.

For catastrophic injuries, we hire medical specialists and economists. These experts quantify your loss of enjoyment of life and diminished earning capacity to force insurers to pay for long-term damages.

Local Legal Experience

Maine is an at-fault state for personal injury claims. That means the person or party responsible for causing the accident is also responsible for paying damages. If you were injured because of someone else’s negligence, you can file a claim against their insurance or take legal action to recover compensation. However, Maine also follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means your compensation could be reduced if you’re found partially at fault, as long as you are less than 50% responsible. Let a personal injury lawyer at the Law Offices of Joe Bornstein take care of everything.

No Fee Unless You Win

Benefit from elite legal counsel with zero upfront fees. Our “no-win, no-fee” commitment means you only pay us after we successfully secure a settlement or court verdict for you.

Joe Bornstein’s Office Fights for Your Right to Compensation after a Personal Injury in Maine

Maine Personal Injury Attorney

Whether you were hurt in a slip and fall, a boating accident, a construction site injury, or a collision caused by a negligent driver, the at-fault party’s insurance is rarely the only source of compensation available. Depending on your case, recoverable damages may come from:

  • Liability insurance held by the at-fault individual or business
  • Workers’ compensation if the injury happened on the job
  • A premises liability claim against a property owner or manager
  • Maine’s dram shop liability if alcohol sales contributed to your harm
  • UM/UIM coverage if an underinsured driver was involved
  • A third-party claim against a contractor, manufacturer, or other negligent party

$750 Million+ Recovered for Maine Families

Our record of results reflects decades of strategic representation against national insurance carriers and local defense firms.

  • $6 million for a car accident injury victim from Livermore, Maine, hurt in a head-on collision following a rear-end one.
  • $3.75 million for a truck accident injury victim from Bangor, Maine, hurt in a head-on collision.
  • $2 million for a motorcycle accident injury victim from Hampden, Maine, hurt by a driver who failed to yield at an intersection.

What Types of Damages Are Available in a Personal Injury Claim in Maine?

If you were hurt in an accident in Maine caused by someone else, you deserve to be financially compensated for all your injury-related expenses. What you might not realize is just how many expenses your injury claim or personal injury lawsuit might include:

  • Cost of all medical care, including any future medical treatments.
  • Vehicle repairs or replacement costs if you need to buy a new car or truck.
  • Money for any property damaged due to your accident.
  • Replacement income if you need to stay home from work to rest and recover.
  • Lost future income if you cannot return to work due to a permanent disability.
  • Pain and suffering and other non-economic damages (a legal term for financial compensation for losses that don’t have a specific financial impact but which are just as real).

Add up all these expenses and financial losses, and your injury claim or lawsuit could be worth thousands of dollars or significantly more. So how do you know how much your case could be worth? Often, the best way is to talk to an experienced Maine personal injury attorney. We’re here to help you make things right.

How Much Is Your Personal Injury Claim Worth in Maine?

No two claims are the same. Maine follows a modified comparative negligence rule under Title 14, Section 156 of the Maine Revised Statutes, meaning your share of fault directly reduces what you can recover and bars recovery entirely if you’re found 50% or more at fault. Beyond that threshold, your claim’s value depends on the severity of your injuries, the clarity of liability, available insurance coverage, and how your injuries affect your daily life and future earnings. A fractured wrist with a full recovery is valued differently than a spinal cord injury that ends a career. The only reliable way to estimate what your case is worth is to have a Maine personal injury attorney review the specific facts.

Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Maine

Our law firm handles a wide range of personal injury cases in Maine. Whether you were hurt in a traffic collision or an accident on someone else’s property, we’re here to help you understand your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve. If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies as a personal injury case, we’re happy to talk with you and provide guidance. Our firm handles personal injury cases involving:

Car Accidents

Injury claims arising from car crashes caused by negligent, distracted, reckless, or impaired drivers. These cases often involve medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term recovery.

Motorcycle Accidents

Claims involving riders injured by negligent drivers, unsafe road conditions, or failure to yield. Motorcycle crashes often cause severe injuries because riders have little protection.

Truck Accidents

Claims involving collisions with tractor-trailers, delivery trucks, commercial vehicles, and other large trucks. These cases often involve severe injuries, complex regulations, and multiple potentially liable parties.

Dog Bites

Claims involving dog attacks, animal bites, and related injuries such as puncture wounds, infection, scarring, and emotional trauma. Liability may arise when an owner fails to properly control or restrain an animal.

Pedestrian Accidents

Claims involving people struck by cars, trucks, motorcycles, or other vehicles while walking. Pedestrian accidents often result in catastrophic injuries because the human body has little protection in a collision.

Bicycle Accidents

Claims involving cyclists injured by motor vehicles, unsafe road conditions, or other negligent conduct. Bicycle crashes often cause serious injuries, including fractures, road rash, and head trauma.

Premises Liability

Claims involving injuries caused by dangerous property conditions, such as poor maintenance, unsafe walkways, inadequate lighting, or hidden hazards. Property owners and occupiers have a duty to keep their premises reasonably safe.

Slip and Falls

Claims involving falls caused by wet floors, ice, uneven pavement, loose carpeting, broken stairs, or other hazardous walking surfaces. These accidents can lead to fractures, spinal injuries, and other serious complications.

Boat Accidents

Claims involving collisions, operator negligence, unsafe conditions, or defective equipment on recreational or commercial boats. These accidents can lead to severe injury, drowning, or wrongful death.

Construction Accidents

Injury claims involving falls, equipment failures, falling objects, electrocution, and unsafe construction site conditions. These cases may involve contractors, subcontractors, property owners, or third parties.

Dangerous Drugs

Claims involving prescription or over-the-counter drugs that cause serious harm due to side effects, contamination, labeling failures, or other defects. These cases may involve pharmaceutical manufacturers, distributors, and healthcare providers.

Drowning Accidents

Claims involving drowning or near-drowning incidents in pools, lakes, rivers, boats, and other water settings. These cases often involve negligent supervision, unsafe property conditions, or boating-related negligence.

Exposure to Toxins

Claims involving harmful exposure to asbestos, chemicals, mold, industrial substances, or environmental contaminants. Toxic exposure can lead to serious illness, respiratory injury, cancer, and other long-term health problems.

Head / Brain Injuries

Claims involving concussions, traumatic brain injuries, skull fractures, and other serious head trauma. Brain injuries can affect memory, concentration, mood, work, and daily functioning.

Injuries to Bystanders

Claims involving innocent people injured while near an accident, dangerous condition, or negligent act. A person need not be a driver, worker, or direct participant to suffer serious harm.

Injuries to Children

Claims involving injuries to minors caused by unsafe property conditions, negligent supervision, defective products, accidents, or abuse. These cases require special care because children are uniquely vulnerable to serious and lasting harm.

Medical Malpractice

Claims involving injuries caused by negligent medical care, including misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, surgical mistakes, medication errors, and birth injuries. These cases arise when a healthcare provider fails to meet the accepted standard of care.

Negligent Security

Claims involving assaults, attacks, or other injuries caused by inadequate security at apartments, hotels, stores, parking lots, or other properties. Property owners may be liable when they fail to take reasonable steps to protect visitors.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Claims involving serious psychological trauma after a violent event, severe accident, abuse, or other shocking incident. PTSD can cause lasting emotional suffering, fear, anxiety, and disruption to daily life.

Product Liability

Claims involving defective or unreasonably dangerous products that cause injury during normal use. These cases may involve design defects, manufacturing defects, or failures to provide proper warnings.

Professional Negligence Resulting in Injury or Loss

Claims involving harm caused by a professional’s failure to use the skill, care, and judgment expected in their field. These cases may involve financial loss, personal injury, or other serious consequences.

Admiralty and Maritime Claims

Injury claims involving boats, commercial vessels, docks, harbors, and accidents on navigable waters. These cases can involve maritime law, boating negligence, and serious water-related injuries.

Recreational Injuries

Claims involving injuries during sports, outdoor activities, fitness programs, water recreation, and other leisure activities. Liability may arise from unsafe conditions, negligent supervision, defective equipment, or reckless conduct.

Spinal Injuries / Herniated Discs

Claims involving back injuries, herniated discs, spinal cord trauma, nerve damage, or paralysis. Spinal injuries can cause chronic pain, limited mobility, and life-changing physical impairment.

Transportation Passenger Accidents

Claims involving passengers injured in cars, buses, taxis, rideshares, trains, shuttles, or other forms of transportation. An injured passenger may have a claim even if they had no role in causing the accident.

Workplace Accidents

Claims involving injuries suffered on the job because of unsafe conditions, equipment failures, falls, repetitive stress, or third-party negligence. These cases may involve workers’ compensation issues as well as separate injury claims.

Wrongful Death

Claims brought when a person dies because of another party’s negligence, recklessness, or misconduct. Wrongful death cases seek accountability and compensation for the losses suffered by surviving family members.

Maine Laws That Impact Your Personal Injury Claim

Maine has specific statutes and legal doctrines that directly shape what you can recover, how long you have to file, and who can be held liable. Understanding these rules before you act can be the difference between a valid claim and a missed opportunity.

Statute of Limitations — General Rules and Exceptions

Under Maine Revised Statutes Title 14, Section 752, most personal injury victims have six years from the date of injury to file a civil lawsuit. Wrongful death claims under Title 18-C, Section 2-807 carry a three-year deadline from the date of death. Missing either deadline almost certainly bars your claim entirely.

Two important exceptions apply:

  • The Discovery Rule. Maine tolls the statute of limitations when an injury was not immediately apparent. The clock starts when the plaintiff knew or reasonably should have known that an injury occurred and that another party’s negligence caused it. This matters most in toxic exposure cases, latent occupational injuries, and delayed-onset medical conditions.
  • Injured Minors. When the injured party is a minor, the statute of limitations is tolled until they turn 18, at which point the standard period begins. A child hurt in a boating accident, a premises liability incident, or a construction zone has until their 24th birthday to file, in most circumstances,  though waiting that long can seriously compromise available evidence.

Modified Comparative Negligence

Maine follows a modified comparative negligence standard under Title 14, Section 156. If you share partial fault for your injury, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of responsibility. If you are found 50% or more at fault, you recover nothing. This rule applies to slip and falls, construction accidents, boating incidents, and most other personal injury scenarios, not just vehicle crashes.

Tort Claims Against Government Entities

Suing a Maine state agency, municipality, or public employee requires navigating the Maine Tort Claims Act, Title 14, Sections 8101–8118. Governmental entities enjoy sovereign immunity by default, with limited exceptions for negligent operation of vehicles, public buildings, and certain infrastructure. Critically, you must file a notice of claim within 180 days of the injury, far shorter than the standard statute of limitations, or your right to sue is forfeited.

Damage Caps in Maine Personal Injury Cases

Maine imposes no general cap on compensatory damages, meaning economic losses like medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic losses like pain and suffering, are not artificially limited by statute.

Exceptions apply in two specific contexts:

  • Medical malpractice. Under Title 24, Section 2931, non-economic damages in medical malpractice claims are capped at $500,000.
  • Punitive damages in wrongful death. Maine limits punitive damages in wrongful death cases to $75,000 unless the defendant’s conduct was intentional. Compensatory wrongful death damages remain uncapped.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find the answers you need regarding your rights and the legal process. The personal injury lawyers in Maine at the Law Offices of Joe Bornstein provide clear, honest guidance to help you manage your recovery with confidence.

What should I do after a personal injury accident in Maine?

After suffering an injury, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed. But taking the right steps after an accident can make a big difference in both your recovery and your ability to file a strong personal injury claim. Your recovery should be your priority, but it’s also important to protect your rights. Here’s what to do:

  • Seek medical attention: Your health comes first. Even if you feel okay, some injuries take time to show symptoms.
  • Report the accident: Whether it happened on the road, at work, or on someone’s property, make sure the proper authorities or responsible parties are notified.
  • Document the scene: Take photos or videos. Write down the names and contact information of witnesses and anyone involved.
  • Keep records and documents: Hold onto medical bills, doctor’s notes, accident reports, and any other documents related to your injury.
  • Be careful about discussing the incident: Don’t post about it online or talk to the other party’s insurance company before getting legal advice.
  • Contact a Maine personal injury lawyer near you: An attorney can help protect your rights and guide you through the legal process.

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer at Joe Bornstein?

Our personal injury lawyers in Maine work on a contingency fee basis. This means you don’t pay anything upfront, and there are no hourly fees. Instead, we only get paid if we recover compensation for you, usually a percentage of your settlement or court award. If your case isn’t successful, you don’t owe us anything. This arrangement allows people who are injured to access experienced legal representation without added financial stress.

Should I file a personal injury lawsuit in Maine?

We hear this question a lot at our Maine law firm from injury victims. Many times, the best way to get the money you deserve for your injury accident is to take legal action. This is especially true if the at-fault party or their insurance takes the following approach:

  • makes a lowball settlement offer
  • negotiates in bad faith and refuses to make a better settlement offer
  • denies your injury claim and refuses to pay you the money you deserve.

Deciding whether to file a lawsuit is a very serious decision. That’s why a Maine personal injury attorney from our law firm wants to meet with you. We can answer your questions and explain the pros and cons of taking legal action, as well as other possible legal options.

How do you prove negligence was a factor in a personal injury claim in Maine?

To prove negligence, you need to show that the other party had a legal duty to act safely, failed to meet that duty, and caused your injuries as a result. This often involves collecting evidence such as accident reports, witness statements, photos or video footage, medical records, and expert testimony. For example, in a slip-and-fall case, proof might include evidence that the property owner knew about a hazard but failed to fix it. An experienced personal injury attorney in Maine can investigate your case and gather the documentation needed to prove liability and support your claim.

Can I sue a Maine governmental entity for negligence?

You may have a complex and difficult personal injury case if a governmental agency has acted negligently and caused your injury. The Maine Tort Claims Act provides “governmental entities” and government employees with immunity from personal injury lawsuits seeking damages. While the law protects governmental entities, Maine law does have some exceptions to immunity.

A governmental entity may be liable for bodily injury, property damage, or death in some personal injury cases involving the following:

  • Ownership, maintenance, or use of vehicles, machinery, and equipment
  • Public buildings (for example, maintenance and construction of places such as courthouses and schools)
  • Discharge of pollutants
  • Road construction, street cleaning, or repair

Keep in mind that every case is different. It’s important to discuss the facts of your specific case with an experienced Maine personal injury lawyer at our firm.
