Frequently Asked Questions
It’s important to seek medical attention immediately. If you can, document the scene with photos and videos, or have someone do it for you. As soon as possible, contact an experienced personal injury attorney to protect your rights.
If you or someone you love has suffered a physical or mental injury as a result of someone’s negligence or harmful act, you should contact our office immediately. The sooner we discuss your situation, the sooner we can collect crucial evidence and protect your rights. Depending on the type of case, Maine Law limits the amount of time that a plaintiff has to file a claim.
There is no cost to you unless we win. We accept all personal injury, product liability, and medical negligence cases on a contingency basis. If we obtain a jury verdict or reach a settlement that you approve, then a portion of the compensation goes to cover the costs of handling your case. Our firm proudly represents good people from all walks of life. We believe that everyone, regardless of wealth or social status, should have access to the highest quality of legal representation.
Out-of-pocket expenses such as vehicle repairs, the cost of a rental car and the loss of use of your vehicle are all eligible for compensation. If you have been injured in an accident, you are entitled to compensation for reasonable medical expenses. Loss of earnings – from the past, present and future – are the responsibility of the party at fault or the insurer. You may also receive compensation for the emotional aspects of the injury, such as pain and suffering.
Unlike the legal dramas on television, the vast majority of cases never go to trial. Most are resolved out of court. Our clients have the final say on every settlement agreement that we negotiate. Of course, some cases do proceed to trial, and the lawyers at Garmey Law are regarded as some of the best trial lawyers in the region. We approach every case as if it were going to trial, making sure that all of the pieces – the evidence, the expert witnesses, the research and the arguments – put you in the best position to win.
