Our FAQ
-
Are free case consultations REALLY free?
Yes! When you contact Berman & Simmons about a potential case, our evaluation is completely free.
-
Are your lawyers and staff really located in Maine?
Yes! All our lawyers and staff live and work right here in Maine. Our offices are located in Lewiston, Portland, Bangor, and Biddeford. We serve clients statewide, and also take on cases for people across the country who were injured in Maine (or for Mainers who were seriously injured while traveling out-of-state).
These days, there are many out-of-state law firms that advertise online as having “an office in Maine,” but in reality their offices are little more than a post-office box and their attorneys and staff have little to no connection to Maine. That couldn’t be further from the truth for Berman & Simmons, which was founded in Lewiston, Maine over 110 years ago and has been standing up for the people of Maine ever since. When you contact Berman & Simmons, you’ll speak to one of our team members right here in Maine.
