Brain Injury Attorney in Bangor

More Than 45 Years Fighting for Maine TBI Victims & Their Families

Traumatic brain injuries change everything. They can disrupt work, memory, relationships, and independence in ways that don’t always show up on the surface. At McCue Law Office, we’ve represented Mainers in serious personal injury cases since 1980, and we know how much is at stake when a brain injury is involved. Our approach is hands-on and personal. We take the time to understand what happened, who is responsible, and what your family may need going forward.

Brain injury claims are among the most demanding in personal injury law. They require attorneys who can document long-term medical needs, work with medical providers, and hold firm against insurer pressure to settle before the full picture is known. That’s exactly what we do.

What Causes TBI & What It Can Mean for Your Future

Traumatic brain injuries result from a blow, jolt, or penetrating injury to the head that disrupts normal brain function. In Maine, the most common causes we see are car accidents, truck collisions, motorcycle crashes, falls, pedestrian accidents, and workplace incidents. Medical malpractice is also a recognized cause in some cases.

TBIs range widely in severity. A mild concussion may cause headaches, memory gaps, difficulty concentrating, sleep problems, and mood changes. Moderate to severe injuries can result in seizures, loss of coordination, prolonged unconsciousness, and permanent cognitive or behavioral impairment. One of the most important things to understand: symptoms aren’t always immediate. Delayed evaluation can allow an injury to worsen and can complicate a legal claim.

Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor is an ACS-verified Level II Trauma Center and the regional facility for serious traumatic injuries across northern and eastern Maine. Treatment can extend well beyond emergency care to include neurosurgery, long-term rehabilitation, and ongoing neurological and psychiatric support. Those costs add up fast, and they don’t stop at the initial hospitalization.

Compensation Available in a Bangor Brain Injury Claim

A serious TBI claim can recover far more than emergency medical bills. We pursue the full range of damages our clients are entitled to pursue, including:

• Past and future medical expenses, from emergency care through long-term rehabilitation
• Lost wages and loss of earning capacity when a brain injury limits or ends a client’s ability to work
• In-home care and life care needs for clients with lasting impairment
• Pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life

Future and non-economic damages are often the largest component of a TBI claim. We work with medical providers and life care planners to document those long-term needs and put real numbers behind them. Family members may also have claims in cases involving severe disability or wrongful death.

Insurance companies challenge TBI claims aggressively. They dispute medical causation, question the severity of cognitive effects, and push early settlement offers before the full extent of losses is known. We don’t let that pressure close a claim prematurely. Our past results include car accident settlements of $1,200,000 and $1,000,000, offered as examples of outcomes we’ve achieved for clients. Past results don’t predict future outcomes, but they reflect how seriously we prepare and pursue each case.
