Those who have been hurt by gun violence can turn to Berman & Simmons for the compensation and justice they deserve. Trusted by countless personal injury victims in Maine and throughout New England for over 100 years, we have earned recognition as a foremost personal injury law firm in our state.

Since the founding of our firm over a century ago in Lewiston, Maine, Berman & Simmons has become one of the state’s premier personal injury law firms, with additional offices in Portland, Bangor, and Biddeford. But for us, it is not enough to be recognized as the best trial firm in Maine. With our unique resources and talent, we strive to be among the very best in the country.

Our attorneys have kept up with national trends in pursuing legal claims against the people and entities whose negligence led to acts of gun violence. Many of our attorneys are members of the National Crime Victims Bar Association and the American Association of Justice.

Trauma-Informed Advocates for Mass Shooting Victims

We understand the trauma that remains following a mass shooting. Our attorneys and staff are trained to be trauma-informed, which helps us deliver compassionate representation to our most vulnerable clients.

Helping victims through such a challenging time is the reason we do what we do. As highly experienced trial lawyers, we provide that help with personal attention, respect, and a commitment to getting our clients the maximum amount of compensation available.

Act Quickly to Preserve Your Rights

When it comes to legal claims on behalf of mass shooting victims, there are strict deadlines that apply to filing claims. Witnesses may become unavailable, and evidence may be lost or degraded with time.

The sooner you consult our Maine gun violence lawyers, the more time we will have to investigate and prepare your case.
