Peter Thompson & Associates
At Peter Thompson & Associates, we are dedicated Maine personal injury lawyers committed to obtaining justice for those who have suffered due to accidents or medical malpractice. Headquartered in Portland, Maine, our practice areas encompass a wide range of personal injury cases, including car, truck and motorcycle accidents, bicycle and pedestrian accidents, premises liability, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, brain injuries, wrongful death, and Social Security Disability claims. We also handle cases involving dog bites, toxic torts, defective products and construction accidents.
Our firm has built a reputation over three decades by consistently delivering excellent results for our clients, treating them with respect and maintaining a high standard of integrity. Our team, which includes award-winning attorneys, paralegals, private investigators and board-certified physician consultants, collaborates to achieve the best possible outcomes for our clients.
Our founder, Peter Thompson, licensed in New Hampshire and Maine, has been a formidable advocate for victims of serious accidents for over 30 years. His leadership and dedication have led to thousands of successfully resolved cases, earning recognitions such as an AV Preeminent* peer-review rating through Martindale-Hubbell. Our team is committed to using its extensive experience and collaborative approach to fight for the rights of those affected by negligence or wrongdoing.
We represent victims and their families across the state from our offices in Bangor, Falmouth, Augusta, Lewiston, Rockland and Biddeford. At Peter Thompson & Associates, we strive to provide compassionate and effective legal representation to ensure our clients receive the justice and compensation they deserve.
*AV®, AV Preeminent®, Martindale-Hubbell Distinguished and Martindale-Hubbell Notable are certification marks used under license in accordance with the Martindale-Hubbell certification procedures, standards and policies. Martindale-Hubbell® is the facilitator of a peer-review rating process. Ratings reflect the anonymous opinions of members of the bar and the judiciary. Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ fall into two categories – legal ability and general ethical standards.
A History of Success
We have a proven track record, including a 98% success rate, several nationally-reported victories and precedent-setting court decisions, as well as over 100 successful jury trials. Last year alone, we recovered over $20,000,000 for our clients and our firm has earned top ratings from U.S. News & World Report and "Best Lawyers in America," reflecting our commitment to excellence.
