Fitzgerald Law Group, LLC – Portland, ME

Portland Mass Tort and Personal Injury Lawyers

Fitzgerald Law Group, LLC is a specialized law firm based in the historic Old Port district of Portland, Maine. Founded in 2015 by Kevin Fitzgerald, the firm has established a national reputation for handling complex litigation against large multinational corporations. Unlike general practice firms, Fitzgerald Law Group focuses almost exclusively on plaintiffs-only injury and consumer protection law, with a specific emphasis on defective medical devices and dangerous pharmaceutical drugs.

Dangerous Drugs and Medical Devices

The firm’s core practice revolves around holding pharmaceutical giants and medical device manufacturers accountable for putting profits over patient safety. They represent clients who have suffered severe health complications due to products that were supposed to help them. The legal team has extensive experience litigating cases involving:

• Defective Medical Devices: Representation for victims injured by failing hip and knee implants, hernia mesh, and IUDs.
• Dangerous Pharmaceuticals: Litigation regarding side effects and health risks associated with prescription medications.
• Mass Torts: Managing complex multi-district litigation (MDL) for clients across the United States.

Personal Injury and Wrongful Death

In addition to mass torts, Fitzgerald Law Group provides dedicated representation for individuals in Maine who have suffered catastrophic injuries. Whether caused by a motor vehicle accident, a workplace incident, or exposure to toxic substances like asbestos, the firm fights to secure the compensation necessary for long-term recovery. They understand that catastrophic injuries often require lifetime care, and they work tirelessly to ensure settlements reflect these future needs.

A National Reach with Local Dedication

While based in Maine, the firm’s scope is nationwide. Attorney Kevin Fitzgerald has represented clients in 48 states, often partnering with other leading law firms to bring significant resources to bear on each case. This collaborative approach allows them to tackle even the most well-funded corporate defendants.

No Recovery, No Fee Promise

Fitzgerald Law Group operates on a strict contingency fee basis. They believe that access to justice should not depend on a client’s financial situation. Clients pay no upfront costs or legal fees. The firm only gets paid if they successfully recover compensation through a settlement or verdict. If there is no recovery, the client owes nothing.

Client-Centered Approach

The firm limits its caseload to ensure that every client receives personal attention. They understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll that a serious injury takes on a family. By handling the legal complexities of the claim, they allow clients to focus on what matters most—their health and recovery.
