About this firm

Berman & Simmons is widely recognized as the best personal injury law firm in Maine with a focus on personal injury, medical malpractice, wrongful death, defective products, and dangerous drugs and medical devices. Our team of 19 trial attorneys and over 40 legal and administration professionals fight tirelessly on behalf of those who have been injured through no fault of their own.

Since 1914, we have fiercely advocated for our clients and given them the power and voice to regain control of their lives and hold even the toughest opponents accountable following serious and often debilitating injuries. We have won some of the largest medical malpractice and personal injury verdicts in Maine history. In fact, two of our firm’s landmark cases have been recognized in The National Law Journal’s Top 100 U.S. Verdicts. As part of our longstanding commitment to civil justice, we have fought to protect the rights of injured victims in our legislative bodies as well. We are proud to have played a key role in helping to pass many important laws that, in turn, have helped ensure access to justice for all Mainers.

Our attorneys have been elected as Fellows of the prestigious American College of Trial Lawyers, and serve on the American Board of Trial Advocates and the American Association for Justice. We have received prestigious recognition from America’s Top 100 Attorneys, Best Lawyers in America, Super Lawyers, Benchmark Litigation, Chambers USA, Martindale Hubbell, and the Inner Circle of Advocates, the leading legal guides to America’s top lawyers and litigation firms.

Berman & Simmons takes pride in obtaining extraordinary results for clients through our team’s unmatched skills, resources, experience, and mastery of civil jury trials. We are dedicated to our community, the people we represent, and making a positive impact in the life of each client. With offices in Portland, Lewiston, and Bangor, Maine, our exceptional team is dedicated to serving clients in Maine as well as the greater New England area.
