Frequently Asked Questions

What is the statute of limitations for a personal injury case in Orono, Maine?
In Maine, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is six years from the date of the injury. This means you must file a lawsuit within that time or you may lose your right to seek compensation. Some cases, such as those against government entities, have shorter deadlines.
How does Maine's modified comparative negligence rule affect my case?
Maine follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you are partially at fault for the accident, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. However, if you are found to be 50 percent or more at fault, you cannot recover any damages.
What types of damages can I recover in a Maine personal injury case?
You can recover economic damages like medical expenses, lost income, and property damage. You may also recover non-economic damages for pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. Punitive damages are rare and only awarded in cases of gross negligence.
