Personal Injury Litigation

For nearly a quarter-century, we have helped the people of Maine obtain full and fair compensation for their injuries. From simple automobile collisions to complex product defects, from minor scrapes to tragic injury and death, we have guided our clients through the complex web of insurance companies and judicial process to ensure justice and full monetary remedy. Some of our more complex cases have involved carbon monoxide poisoning from a faulty hot water heater; injuries from an explosion and fire caused by a leaking propane gas line at a construction site; flash fire on a boat cause by a improperly maintained inboard-outboard motor; injuries from collapsing porches, rotted railings, and other defective premises; skiing and golf course injuries; as well as numerous and varied auto collision liability cases. When, as is often the case, negotiations with the insurance company do not produce sufficient results, MPM has the skill and experience to take a client's case to trial in the Maine courts. Our track record of success is our best reference.

Our lawyers stay on the cutting edge of personal injury law and trial practice through participation and leadership in a number ways. Thomas C. Newman is a Sustaining Member of the American Trial Lawyers Association (ATLA) and has been a member of the Board of Governors for the Maine Trial Lawyers Association (MTLA) since 1988. Mr. Newman chaired the CLE program for MTLA for 4 years and was recently appointed to the American Board of Trial Advocates. Our lawyers regularly use the ATLA exchange to research cases and network with other plaintiff's lawyers in order to provide our clients with the best possible representation.
