Aroostook County Truck Accident Lawyers
Fighting for Truck Crash Victims Across Northern Maine
Aroostook County sees heavy commercial trucking tied to forestry, agriculture, and cross-border freight moving along corridors like I-95 to Houlton and routes connecting to US-1 and US-2.
When an 18-wheeler, logging truck, or other commercial vehicle causes a catastrophic crash, the case is rarely like a car accident. It’s higher-stakes, more complex, and typically defended aggressively.
Berman & Simmons is Maine’s leading personal injury firm, with a heritage dating back to 1914 and more than $1.5 billion recovered for clients. We represent injured Mainers and families statewide and have a reputation for success in complex truck accident cases.
