Major Vehicle Accidents in Maine

Major auto accidents in our state commonly involve two or more drivers, especially on major highways like I-95 and I-295, from Bangor to Portland to other regions of Maine and beyond. Typically, an increased number of motorists involved in a single crash increases the complexity of the processes involved in the aftermath, such as obtaining monetary compensation in a personal injury claim.

Typically, when several drivers are involved in one accident, every driver usually has a separate insurance provider and legal counsel. Each party may sustain different types of injuries that need to be treated by a doctor. Surgery, hospitalization, medicine, and physical therapy are all potential needs, and for some victims, it may take months or even longer to recover.
