Maine's millions of annual visitors aren't out of luck if they're injured here. Maine law protects them just as it does residents.
Maine Law Governs the Injury
An injury that happens in Maine is generally governed by Maine law, including the six years deadline and comparative fault rule — regardless of where you live.
Handling a Claim From Out of State
You don't have to remain in Maine to pursue a claim. Records, communications, and even many proceedings can be handled remotely with local counsel.
Gather Evidence Before You Leave
Since you'll be heading home, collect photos, witness contacts, and the incident or police report before you go.
