Can You Take Legal Action If You’re Not at Fault?

Absolutely. If someone else’s negligence caused your injuries or property damage, you can seek compensation. Maine follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can recover damages as long as you’re less than 50% at fault. If the other party claims you contributed to the accident, our team can gather evidence to demonstrate your limited or non-existent liability.
