I'm very pleased with the performance of all the folks who helped me at Lowry and Associates after my car accident a year and a half ago. From Attorney Beardsley who agreed to take my case when another firm I contacted had passed on it, to Annabelle, (a paralegal?) who called consistently every few weeks to keep me abreast on the details of what was happening with my case, and who was very patient and kind even when I expressed frustration when it seemed like nothing was happening. And finally l'm thankful for Attorney Reilly, who worked the details of my case and who, when the time came to negotiate with the other party's insurance company, secured me a settlement way more than I had imagined I would receive. I'm very thankful that all these people aided me at a particularly low point in my life. I'm very grateful for all that they do. Their professionalism and experience really helped me.

I came to this law firm in 2023 after a really bad motorcycle accident. I was afraid and nervous to even make the call but when I connected with Colin he wasted no time at all in getting me in for the in person visit. When my dad and I got to the office I was blown away by the hospitality I was given by Colin himself, I was still on crushes and had all sorts of road rash and he did not do or ask anything about the case further until he knew I was comfortable enough. After three years of the back and forth between both the team and the insurance they made sure they got the most amount of money that they could and the foot work from anabelle is truly incredible. They were in touch every month by phone call (unless nothing happened during that month) and I truly believe there was no other team besides jay, Annabelle and attorney Colin that could have worked my case the way they did. Beyond impressed and I will most definitely be recommending anyone and everyone who asks me if I know a lawyer to Lowry associates. 10/10 thank you guys so so SO much for all of your hard work and support! I truly do hope that we don’t have to have another case together but if something does come up and I need some help I will 100% be calling the 2s again!

If I could give 10 stars I would! Lowry Law is top notch! They were very informative, helpful, and compassionate! Everyone went above and beyond right from the very beginning, not many attorneys would come into the hospital on a Friday evening at 6:30PM and sit and listen for 2 hours, but Attorney Beardsley did! Both Attorney Beardsley and Attorney Reilly, listened, explained thoroughly, and worked so hard and diligently to help make a bad situation, right! Anabelle was always so pleasant and helpful keeping me updated along the way! I highly recommend this law firm to anyone who is looking for a professional, responsive and compassionate team, this is the place! Thank you Lowry Law for all your dedication and hard work for me!

He works with patience and superior strategies. The team was very gentle to me during a very rough time making me feel connected. The team was very responsive for any questions I had. I couldn’t recommend the firm enough. I will always come back if I need a lawyer again!

I got the chance to meet quite a few of the employees here, Attorney’s included and everyone was beyond kind and helpful with every interaction. They made sure I understood the process and helped guide me through tough decisions and moments while they took care of all the heavy hard work behind the scenes. I am so so grateful for them throughout the whole process. Thank you all - Attorney Reilly, Attorney Winslow, Attorney Beardsley, Lucien, (and Anabelle too!!) for clear and constant communication and most importantly for representing me and making sure my voice was heard. I appreciate you all so much.

I was involved in a head on car crash in the fall of 2023. Lowry and Associates were amazing from day 1. James Beardsley came out to my place of residence for our first meeting. He was pleasant and explained how the entire process worked. He assured me that I wouldn’t have to worry about anything, just healing. The office kept in contact with me every month and a half updating me on what was taking place. By then end I was working with Ashley who drove out to me so I could sign the finalized documents. Everything went smoothly and quicker than expected. The whole process was a little over a year. If you are ever hesitant to get a lawyer or not- GET A LAWYER. Call the 2’s. I’m so thankful I wasn’t injured more, thankful my unborn baby is alive and thriving and I’m thankful to be alive. It could have been much worse. Thank you so much to everyone on the Lowry & Associates Team! Kristen Dail

Lowry & Associates settled my case after a very bad motorcycle accident . I was in the hospital with several broken bones when Mr James Beardsley came to see me there. I was worried because i knew this was going to be a long hard recovery and I would have to be out of work, but Lowry & Associates took on my case that very day- that helped to put my mind at ease so I could concentrate on getting better physically. They always kept me updated on how the case was progressing, and even came to my home with very good news of reaching a settlement in the case! After all of the hard work from Lowry & Associates they got me the money I deserved and I am so grateful to everyone who worked on my case . Definitely 5 stars for Lowry & Associates!

In June of 2022, a pickup truck veered across the center line and hit us nearly head-on. The accident resulted in serious injuries, hospitalization, and months of recovery. We called the twos, Lowry & Associates. Atty. Beardsley came to our home to assist us in initiating a legal process. The loss of our vehicle and healthcare costs were covered, and damages were awarded. Everyone at Lowry & Associates has been very professional and helpful throughout the process. We highly recommend Lowry & Associates.

Jim and his team helped resolve my case. The other persons insurance company was not easy to deal with. They just seemed to want to find ways to avoid paying my claim. The initial offer wasn't even enough to pay my medical bills. Lowry and associates worked to achieve a reasonable settlement. Thanks Lowry+Associates. S.Waltman

I highly recommend Lowery and Associates. My case was considerably tricky with Soo many hurdles that were not "the norm." We had never filed a law suit before and knew nothing about what needed to be done. Attorney Beardsley and his team was very professional and kept me informed every step of the way. I never felt like just another number to them. They were all very helpful and compassionate and very patient. They fought for me to get what was right and fair for me to receive. And I am incredibly grateful!

With bills from physical therapy piling up I called the office where they made the process so easy and took care of all the intricate dealings with insurance companies.

Thank you for everything you did for my husband and I!! When he was hit head on and his knee was shattered we knew it was going to be a long haul. We are so glad we called you! You handled everything, all we had to do was concentrate on him and his treatment. You handled the paperwork on medical expenses that were overwhelming to say the least especially when we found out the woman had no insurance. You assured us all we needed to do was concentrate on him and his treatment. It truly was a piece of mind having someone who knows and understood how to take care of it! Thanks again!! We appreciate all you did for us!

They are well organized and I have always had same day responses when asking for an update, I was never in the dark about the details of my cases every step of the way. Even when I was unsure I was owed money, they got me what was rightfully due. I encourage everyone in the midst of dealing with an injury from a car accident to give them a call.

After a major motorcycle accident involving another driver making a left turn directly in front of me, Lowry and Associates got involved because I had hit a dead end and they worked on my case for a couple years. Finally they were able to settle my case and get compensation for me that allows me to move forward. It doesn't change the permanent injuries I suffered but allows me to close that chapter and move forward. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again if needed!

You will not be disappointed! My wife was in a horrific car crash that was no fault of her own. Ashley, Kathy, and team were so empathetic, sympathetic, and caring that it made us feel as if we were family. We rec'd more than expected and in half the time expected. This was so appreciated as bills were mounting, but Ashley and Kathy were with us every step of the way to put our stress in check. Where they are was convenient to me. However, after my dealings with this firm, I will travel as far as necessary to go there should I ever need the services of a law firm again. They made it as easy as possible, even though this was the worst experience of our lives. We were emotionally distraught, but they were a HUGE part of the healing process. Our best interest was ALWAYS at the forefront with these wonderful people. As bad as the accident was, I couldn't imagine going though that without the compassion of Ashley and Kathy. They both worked so very, very hard in our behalf and we owe a huge debt of gratitude to them and their team!

What to Do Immediately After a Car Accident in Portland

The moments following a car accident in Portland can be overwhelming, but the steps you take right away can make a major difference in protecting your health, safety, and future legal claim. Here’s what to do immediately after a crash:

  1. Check for injuries and call 911. Even if the crash seems minor, contact emergency services. Police will create an official accident report, which is a key piece of evidence for any insurance or legal claim.
  2. Move to a safe location. If possible, move your vehicle out of traffic to avoid further collisions. Turn on your hazard lights and wait for first responders in a safe spot nearby.
  3. Exchange information. Get the other driver’s name, contact information, driver’s license number, and insurance details. If there are witnesses, ask for their names and contact information as well.
  4. Document the scene. Take clear photos and videos of the accident site, vehicle damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries.
  5. Seek medical attention. Even if you feel fine, visit a doctor as soon as possible. Some injuries, like whiplash or concussions, may not show symptoms immediately. A medical record will also support your claim.
  6. Notify your insurance company. Report the accident promptly to your insurer but avoid admitting fault or giving detailed statements until you’ve spoken with an attorney.
  7. Contact a lawyer. Before dealing with insurance adjusters or signing any documents, talk to a qualified car accident lawyer in Portland. The experienced team at Lowry Law can guide you through your next steps, protect your rights, and help you pursue full compensation for your injuries and losses.

You Have Rights After a Serious Accident

After a car accident, especially one that leads to severe injuries, it’s important to know that you have legal rights. These rights allow you to seek justice and potentially recover damages for your losses. Some of the key rights include:

  • The Right to Hire a Lawyer: If you’ve been injured in an accident, you have the right to hire an attorney to represent you. Having legal representation can help you navigate the complex legal process and deal with insurance companies.
  • The Right to Seek Compensation: Depending on the details of your accident, you may be entitled to financial recovery for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.
  • The Right to File a Lawsuit: If an insurance settlement isn’t enough or if fault is being disputed, you have the right to take your case to court.

How Can a Portland Car Accident Lawyer Help?

After a car crash, you may face mounting medical bills, missed work, and pressure from insurance adjusters. Insurance companies investigate accidents with their own financial interests in mind. Having an attorney means you have someone looking out for yours.

A skilled car accident lawyer can handle every aspect of your claim by:

  • Investigating the cause of your accident
  • Gathering and preserving important evidence
  • Identifying everyone who may be responsible
  • Reviewing available insurance policies
  • Calculating the full extent of your current and future damages
  • Negotiating with insurance adjusters for a reasonable settlement
  • Filing a lawsuit and advocating for you in court if a fair resolution can’t be reached

You don’t have to investigate the crash, sort through confusing insurance policies, estimate your future losses, or negotiate with an insurance company focused on paying as little as possible. Lowry Law can handle that work for you.

Our attorneys can build a strong case designed to pursue the maximum compensation you may qualify for. Throughout the process, we’ll keep you informed, answer your questions, and provide the personal attention you need during this difficult time. Let us manage the legal work so you can focus on your recovery.

What to Expect in the Car Accident Claims Process

Car accident claims can be frustrating and overwhelming, but knowing what to expect can help make what comes next feel less uncertain. We can walk you through each stage, handle the legal details, and help you avoid common mistakes along the way.

Here are key steps in the claims process:

Your case begins with a free consultation. We listen to what happened, discuss your injuries, review the information available, and explain your legal options.

This is the first step toward understanding your potential claim, and there’s no obligation to hire us simply because you speak with our team.

If we take your case, we can begin gathering evidence and investigating the cause of the crash.

This may include obtaining police reports, interviewing witnesses, reviewing photos or videos, inspecting vehicle damage, gathering medical records, and seeking other evidence that can help establish responsibility.

More than one person or company may share responsibility for an accident. We examine the facts to determine who may be legally responsible and identify the insurance coverage that may apply.

Once we understand your injuries and damages, we can present the case to the appropriate insurer and negotiate for a settlement.

You don’t have to manage these negotiations yourself. Our attorneys can respond to the insurer’s questions, challenge unfair arguments, and advise you about settlement offers.

Many car accident cases are resolved without going to trial. However, a lawsuit may become necessary if the insurance company disputes responsibility or refuses to offer a reasonable settlement. Many car accident cases settle before trial. However, filing a lawsuit may be necessary when an insurance company denies liability or refuses to make a fair settlement offer.

During a lawsuit, both sides can exchange evidence, question witnesses in depositions, file motions, and prepare for trial. Settlement negotiations can continue during this process.

Learn more: What to Expect in a Car Accident Lawsuit

Your case may end through a negotiated settlement or, when necessary, a verdict at trial.

Before you accept a settlement, we can explain its terms and help you understand what the resolution means for you. We work hard to help ensure the compensation you may receive is fair and reflects your needs, and we help make sure you receive your check in a timely manner.

 

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, don’t navigate the claims process alone. Contact Lowry Law today for a free case review. Our Portland car accident attorneys are ready to help you understand your options and fight for the compensation you may be entitled to.

Types of Compensation Available After a Car Accident

If you were injured in a car accident, you may be entitled to recover compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial harm you’ve suffered. Car accident compensation generally falls into 3 main categories:

Economic damages cover the tangible financial losses resulting from your accident. These are expenses that can be clearly documented with bills, receipts, or records. Common examples include:

  • Medical bills and hospital costs
  • Rehabilitation and physical therapy expenses
  • Lost wages and future lost income
  • Property damage and vehicle repair costs
  • Out-of-pocket expenses, such as transportation or prescription costs

Non-economic damages compensate for the intangible effects of your injuries — the losses that don’t come with a receipt but deeply affect your quality of life. These may include:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress or mental anguish
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Loss of companionship or consortium
  • Scarring or permanent disability

In rare cases, Maine courts may award punitive damages to punish a driver who committed specific types of misconduct. Punitive damages in Maine are rare and complicated.

How Fault Affects Your Car Accident Claim

Figuring out who caused a car accident is an important part of deciding who may have to pay for the injuries and losses that follow. Sometimes fault is clear. Other times, drivers disagree about what happened, an insurance company tries to shift blame, or several people contributed to the crash.

Determining fault may require looking at how the accident happened, which Maine traffic laws apply, and what the evidence shows. In a complicated crash, more than 1 person or company may share responsibility. A car accident attorney can investigate the crash, identify who may be responsible, and gather evidence to support your case.

Maine Is an At-Fault State for Car Accidents

Maine is an at-fault state, which means the person who caused a car accident may be financially responsible for the injuries and losses that result. If another driver’s negligence caused your crash, you may be able to pursue compensation through that driver’s insurance or, when necessary, a lawsuit.

Fault may also extend beyond the driver. Depending on how the accident occurred, a vehicle owner, employer, manufacturer, or another party could potentially share responsibility.

An insurance company’s initial decision about fault doesn’t necessarily settle the issue. Your attorney can conduct an independent investigation and challenge attempts to unfairly place responsibility on you.

How Do You Prove Negligence in a Car Accident Case?

In legal terms, negligence occurs when someone fails to act with the level of care that a reasonable person would in similar circumstances. In car accident cases, this means drivers are expected to follow the rules of the road, obey traffic signs, and stay alert while driving.

To establish negligence, you need to prove each of these 4 elements:

  1. Duty of Care: The other person had a legal responsibility to act with reasonable care.
  2. Breach of Duty: The person failed to meet that responsibility.
  3. Causation: The person’s actions must have caused the accident and your injuries.
  4. Damages: You must have suffered an actual loss because of the accident.

What If You Were Partly at Fault for the Accident?

Even if you contributed to the accident, you may still be able to recover compensation under Maine’s comparative negligence law. If you’re found to be less than 50% at fault, the amount of compensation you may be entitled to will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found 30% responsible, your compensation will be reduced by 30%.

However, you could be barred from receiving compensation if you’re found to be 50% or more at fault for the accident. Because of this rule, insurance companies may try to place more responsibility on you to reduce what they pay. An attorney can review the facts, challenge unfair attempts to blame you, and use evidence to show how the other party caused or contributed to the accident.

What Evidence Can Help Prove Fault?

A successful car accident case often depends on being able to show how the crash happened, who was responsible, and how you were harmed. Depending on the circumstances, evidence used to determine fault may include:

  • Police and crash reports
  • Photos and videos of the accident scene
  • Vehicle damage
  • Dashcam footage
  • Traffic or surveillance camera recordings
  • Witness statements
  • Skid marks, debris, and other physical evidence
  • Traffic signals and signs
  • Road and weather conditions
  • Cellphone records in distracted-driving cases
  • Vehicle event data
  • Medical records connecting your injuries to the collision
  • Testimony or analysis from accident reconstruction and other qualified experts when necessary

Evidence can disappear quickly. Video footage may be deleted, vehicles may be repaired, road conditions can change, and witnesses may forget important details. Lowry Law can begin investigating as soon as possible to identify and preserve evidence, determine how Maine’s comparative fault law applies, and build a strong, evidence-based case for the full compensation available to you.

Dealing With Insurance Companies After a Portland Car Accident

After a car accident, you may hear from your insurance company and the other driver’s insurer within days or even hours. An adjuster may ask what happened, request access to your medical records, or offer money to settle your case.

It’s important to remember that insurance companies are businesses. Even when an adjuster seems helpful, the company has a financial reason to limit how much it pays. What you say, sign, or agree to early in the process could affect your case later.

Be careful about:

  • Guessing about how the accident occurred
  • Accepting blame before the crash has been investigated
  • Downplaying your injuries
  • Signing broad medical authorizations without understanding them
  • Accepting a settlement before you know the extent of your injuries

An early settlement may be tempting when medical bills and other expenses are adding up. However, settling before you understand the full extent of your damages can leave you responsible for future expenses that weren’t included in the settlement.

Our Portland auto accident attorneys can deal with the insurance companies for you, review settlement offers and insurance coverage, present evidence supporting your damages, challenge attempts to unfairly shift blame or minimize your injuries, and negotiate on your behalf. Don’t let the insurance company decide what your car accident case is worth. Reach out to Lowry Law today.

Deadline to File a Car Accident Claim in Maine

In Maine, you have 6 years from the date of your car accident to file a lawsuit for compensation. While 6 years may seem like a long time, certain cases require quicker action. Some notices must be filed within months, and insurance deadlines can be as short as 30 days. To avoid missing any important deadlines, it’s important to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Acting quickly can help ensure you protect your rights and meet all necessary legal requirements.

Where Do Accidents Happen in Portland?

Accidents can happen anywhere, but heavy traffic and complex road designs can create additional risks in some areas.

Roads with notable crash activity include:

  • Forest Avenue (Route 302)
  • Congress Street
  • Franklin Street
  • Washington Avenue
  • Brighton Avenue
  • I-295
  • Warren Avenue
  • Riverside Street

Common Causes of Portland Car Accidents

From busy city streets to I-295, Portland drivers encounter many conditions that can lead to serious collisions. Common causes include:

  • Distracted driving: Texting, using a cell phone, adjusting navigation, eating, or focusing on something other than the road can cause a driver to miss a hazard.
  • Speeding: Driving too fast can reduce reaction time and increase the force of a collision.
  • Failure to yield: Drivers who fail to yield at intersections, while turning, or when entering traffic can cause serious crashes.
  • Following too closely: A driver may not have enough room to stop when traffic suddenly slows.
  • Impaired driving: Alcohol and drugs can affect judgment, coordination, and reaction time.
  • Unsafe lane changes: Failing to check surrounding traffic before changing lanes can lead to sideswipe and multi-vehicle accidents.
  • Fatigued driving: A tired driver may react slowly or lose focus behind the wheel.
  • Winter conditions: Snow, ice, slush, and poor visibility can make Portland roads more difficult to navigate. Drivers still have a responsibility to use reasonable care for the conditions.

The cause of your crash can determine what evidence is needed and who may be responsible. In some cases, several factors contribute to the same collision.

Car Accident Injuries

Even a crash that looks minor can cause an injury that affects your life for weeks, months, or longer. Car accident injuries may include:

  • Whiplash and other neck injuries
  • Back and spinal injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries and concussions
  • Broken bones
  • Shoulder and knee injuries
  • Internal injuries
  • Nerve damage
  • Cuts and scarring
  • Soft-tissue injuries
  • Permanent disabilities
  • Emotional trauma

Always seek medical attention after an accident. Some injuries require surgery, rehabilitation, or ongoing medical treatment. Others can affect your ability to work, care for your family, or enjoy activities that were once part of your normal life.

That’s why evaluating a case should involve more than adding up current medical bills. Our car accident lawyers consider how your injuries could affect your health, finances, and future.

FAQs About Car Accidents in Portland, ME

You should notify your insurance company about the accident, but avoid giving a detailed statement or accepting any settlement before speaking with an attorney. Insurance adjusters often look for ways to minimize payouts. A car crash lawyer from Lowry Law can communicate with insurers on your behalf to help protect your rights and ensure you’re treated fairly.

Maine law generally gives you 6 years from the date of the accident to file an injury lawsuit. However, certain exceptions can shorten this period, so it’s best to contact a lawyer as soon as possible to preserve your right to compensation.

Yes. Under Maine’s comparative negligence law, you can still recover damages if you were less than 50% at fault for the crash. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

There’s no simple answer because every case is different. The outcome of your case depends on factors such as who was at fault, the strength of the evidence, the severity of your injuries, and whether the insurance company disputes your claim. A lawyer can develop a strong case on your behalf and advocate for you throughout the process to improve your chances of a successful outcome.

There’s no set timeline for a car accident settlement. A straightforward case may resolve in months, while a case involving severe injuries, disputed responsibility, complex insurance issues, or a lawsuit typically takes longer.

Lowry Law works to move cases forward efficiently while making sure your current and future losses are fully understood before negotiating a final settlement.

Most car accident cases settle before they reach trial. However, if the insurance company refuses to accept responsibility or doesn’t make a fair settlement offer, filing a lawsuit may be the best way to pursue full and fair compensation.

Lowry Law prepares every case as though it could go to trial, which often strengthens our position during settlement negotiations.

Under Maine law, you must report an accident immediately if it occurs on a public road or another place open to public traffic and results in an injury, a death, or apparent property damage of $2,000 or more. The report should be made to the appropriate law enforcement agency, such as the Portland Police Department or another agency with jurisdiction.

Even if you’re unsure whether your accident meets the reporting requirements, it’s usually best to contact law enforcement and notify your insurance company promptly. A police report can also provide valuable information that may help support your car accident claim later.
