Common Questions
Answers Before You Call
Do I have a personal injury case?
You may have a case if you were injured because another person, company, or property owner acted negligently or carelessly. The clearest way to know is to request a free case evaluation, where we review the facts and tell you straight.
How much does it cost to talk to Hardy, Wolf & Downing?
Nothing. The consultation is free, and we work on contingency: you pay no fees unless we recover compensation for you. No fee, no recovery, no risk.
What types of injury cases do you handle?
We handle personal injury cases across Maine, including car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, pedestrian injuries, slip and falls, premises liability, wrongful death, traumatic brain injury, and other serious injury claims caused by negligence.
What compensation can I recover?
Depending on the facts of your case, recoverable damages may include:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Property damage
- Permanent disability or disfigurement
- Wrongful death damages
Should I talk to the insurance company first?
You can speak with a lawyer before giving a recorded statement or accepting a settlement offer. Insurance companies are not on your side, and early statements can be used against you. A free call costs nothing and protects your case.
How soon should I contact a lawyer?
As soon as possible. Evidence disappears, witness memories fade, and Maine law sets strict deadlines on injury claims. The sooner we get started, the more we can do.
