Areas of Practice

Medical Malpractice

We have extensive experience handling medical malpractice cases where negligence has been committed by a professional health care provider - a doctor, nurse, technician, hospital, nursing home or hospital worker or pharmacy - whose performance of duties departed from standard medical practice of those with similar training and experience, resulting in harm to a patient. We have achieved jury verdicts and settlements in the millions.

Personal Injury / Wrongful Death

We handle catastrophic injury cases involving death or very serious and permanent impairment to individuals. It is our mission to assist our clients in these difficult times by obtaining fair and just compensation for them and, at the conclusion, advising them how to best get their injuries behind them and return to as normal a life as possible.

Legal Malpractice

We represent clients who have suffered from the negligent practice of lawyers. We believe that professional competence is required in all professions, including the law.

Banking / Insurance Claims

We are experienced in suits brought against banks, insurance companies, and corporations for breach of fiduciary duties, negligence, and unfair trade practices. We have secured substantial jury verdicts where the bank has not lived up to its promises and settlements in many cases for failure of insurance companies to pay benefits to insured individuals.

Criminal Law

We handle serious criminal charges against individuals in State and Federal Courts. We have had great success at trial against the government in criminal tax cases. Mr. Lilley has tried more than 30 murder and manslaughter cases in courts throughout the State of Maine. The firm has earned a reputation as a highly respected and competent criminal defense firm.

Products Liability

We represent clients who have been injured by faulty or defective products ranging from automobiles to foot warmers.
