A trucking company may have an entire legal team protecting its interests before an injured person has even left the hospital.

At Berman & Simmons, we know what it takes to challenge powerful trucking companies and their insurers. Our attorneys have secured some of Maine's largest truck accident verdicts and settlements, including a record-setting $25 million jury verdict.

When the opposition has substantial resources, your legal team should, too. https://bit.ly/48cH4aV

Tomorrow night, neighborhoods across Maine will be filled with trick-or-treaters, families, and children walking from house to house.

With more pedestrians near roads, driveways, and intersections, drivers have an added responsibility to stay alert. Slow down, eliminate distractions, and take extra care in residential areas, especially when children may cross somewhere unexpected.

At Berman & Simmons, we have seen how devastating pedestrian crashes can be, with serious injuries affecting victims and their families long after the collision. Our attorneys represent Mainers who have been seriously injured by negligent drivers and families who have lost loved ones in pedestrian crashes.

Stay alert behind the wheel and help make Halloween a safe night for everyone. https://bit.ly/46PKUFm

After a serious truck crash, one of the biggest questions is often: What happens after I hire an attorney?

Every case is different, but a trucking case may begin with preserving critical evidence such as driver logs, vehicle data, company records, and inspection information. From there, attorneys can investigate who may be responsible, identify available insurance coverage, and document the full impact of the injuries, including future medical care, lost income, and long-term limitations.

Negotiations with insurers may follow. If a fair resolution cannot be reached, filing a lawsuit can move the case into discovery, depositions, expert analysis, and potentially trial.

At Berman & Simmons, we understand that preparation matters in serious trucking cases. Building a case with trial in mind can put our clients in a stronger position when significant injuries and their futures are at stake. https://bit.ly/3V8faW7

A delayed diagnosis can have life-changing consequences.

Berman & Simmons secured a $10 million result in a medical malpractice case involving a delayed diagnosis of a genetic disease that caused a brain injury.

Cases involving serious brain injuries and failures in medical care can be extraordinarily complex. They require a detailed understanding of the medical evidence and the ability to demonstrate the lasting impact on the injured person and their family.

Our attorneys have extensive experience handling high-stakes medical malpractice cases throughout Maine and pursuing meaningful results when preventable medical errors cause catastrophic harm. https://bit.ly/47qWYfX

FAQ: What should I know if I was hit by a delivery truck or van?

If you were walking, biking, or driving when a delivery vehicle struck you, the driver may not have seen you because of the vehicle’s large blind spots. But that does not necessarily excuse what happened.

Delivery drivers are responsible for understanding their vehicles and carefully checking their surroundings, especially in neighborhoods, school zones, and areas with pedestrians and bicyclists.

If a collision leaves you with serious injuries, understanding whether the driver failed to properly check a blind spot can be an important part of determining what happened and who may be responsible.

At Berman & Simmons, we help seriously injured people understand their legal options after devastating vehicle crashes. https://bit.ly/3LNVVQF

When the stakes are high, there is little room for shortcuts.

A catastrophic injury can mean years of medical treatment, permanent limitations, lost earning capacity, and major changes for an entire family. A wrongful death can leave consequences that can never truly be measured.

These cases demand careful investigation, significant resources, experienced attorneys, and a willingness to go to trial when necessary.

At Berman & Simmons, we have spent more than a century representing people in Maine whose cases carry serious, life-changing consequences. From catastrophic truck crashes to medical malpractice and wrongful death, we focus on building strong cases that reflect what is truly at stake.

Because the more serious the case, the more preparation matters. https://bit.ly/48cH4aV

Attorney Travis M. Brennan takes on some of Maine’s most complex and high-stakes cases, representing people affected by medical malpractice, catastrophic injuries, wrongful death, defective products, and serious trucking crashes.

As a shareholder at Berman & Simmons, Travis has secured significant verdicts and settlements for his clients, including a record-setting $23.1 million medical malpractice jury verdict for a man left permanently paralyzed due to medical negligence. His experience also includes trying six cases to juries in five different Maine counties in a single year.

Behind that courtroom experience is a commitment to understanding each client personally, including how an injury has affected their health, family, work, and future.

When the stakes are high, Travis brings preparation, determination, and a strong record of advocacy to the people he represents. https://bit.ly/3TddzRz

Berman & Simmons has 11 attorneys and more than 40 legal professionals working together on behalf of injured people and families throughout Maine. For complex cases, that can mean working with leading experts, using technology to explain difficult evidence, conducting detailed investigations, and preparing for the possibility of trial from the outset.

That depth matters when the other side is a major trucking company, hospital, insurer, government entity, or other well-funded defendant.

Our clients come to us during some of the most consequential periods of their lives. We build their cases accordingly. https://bit.ly/48cH4aV

The birth of a child should not result in a family facing questions about whether a serious injury could have been prevented.

Birth injuries can take many forms. Brachial plexus injuries may cause weakness or paralysis in a baby’s arm. Cerebral palsy can result from certain brain injuries occurring before, during, or shortly after birth. Improper use of forceps can also cause serious harm, including skull fractures, bleeding, or seizures.

For families, the effects of a birth injury may mean ongoing medical care, therapy, and uncertainty about their child’s future.

Berman & Simmons represents Maine families in complex medical malpractice cases involving serious birth injuries. When questions arise about the care provided during labor or delivery, our attorneys work to understand what happened and whether medical negligence played a role. https://bit.ly/3WRCvMp

A serious legal matter is deeply personal to the person living through it.

At Berman & Simmons, we believe clients deserve to feel heard, respected, and supported throughout their case. That means taking the time to understand their concerns, keeping them informed, and recognizing that the impact of an injury or loss reaches far beyond the legal issues involved.

Strong advocacy matters, but so does how clients are treated along the way. We are proud to provide both. https://bit.ly/4icLdPp
