Schwartz Areas of Practice
Steve Schwartz specializes in the areas of personal injury, criminal and traffic defense including OUIs, and wills and probate.
Personal Injury
In personal injury matters, we have obtained millions of dollars for our clients who have been in accidents. Most matters are settled in amounts that exceed our clients' expectations. And for those that do not, we will not hesitate to go to court to protect your rights.
Criminal Defense
We are also known for having a high powered criminal defense practice. We handle everything from homicide and other serious felonies to OUI. Even a speeding case for someone on a provisional license can be traumatic and cause a loss of license, and we handle those cases, too. Steve has helped to train other lawyers in the state and has created a network of criminal defense lawyers to help people accused of crimes--he was the founder and first president of the Maine Association of Criminal Defense lawyers in 1992.
Probate Matters
We also handle a variety of probate matters, from estate planning, including wills, trusts, advanced healthcare directives and powers of attorney, to estate administration, will contests, and contested and uncontested guardianships and conservatorships.
