After a no-fault car accident, and after trying to negotiate the case on my own (foolishly), I contacted Joe’s office on the recommendation of a friend. They were phenomenal. Ben and Amanda were a great team. They walked me through the process, explained how everything worked with the insurance company, checked in regularly over the year+ that we worked together, accommodated my moving out of state, and ultimately won an excellent settlement. I felt that they honestly worked for my best interests, they were professional, respectful, kind, and very successful in my case! I can’t recommend them enough.

After my husband’s serious motorcycle accident I called Joe’s office. I immediately was able to speak with Joe directly. He sent over one of his attorneys to the hospital the next day to meet with me. Sean was kind, concerned and respectful. Joe’s case manager, Stephanie was wonderful and always had time to answer every question and help with any concern we had. Joe’ s office also helped with insurance questions and made our claims go through smoothly. When meeting Joe we were amazed how kind and compassionate he was. His sincerity moved us and he understood the difficulties we faced with my husband’s suffering and frustrations. He totally came through for us and we are thankful for him and his staff in getting our settlement. I highly recommend Joe Bornstein! ❤️

I was involved in a minor traffic accident that resulted in a whiplash injury that lasted longer than the typical duration. Blair Jones and the Joe Bornstein staff not only made the legal process simple and easy, but they got the opposing insurance company to settle on an amount that was triple the initial offer. I would absolutely recommend working with the offices of Joe Bornstein in the future.

I totaled my car in July of 2017. After 9 months of working with a lawyer elsewhere and hearing nothing, I turned to Joe Bernstein’s office. Within 2 months not only had I met with my new lawyer, Blair, but they had also begun negotiations. The process was complete and I was able to move on after a short 4 months. I was so impressed with the efficiency of the office. The personnel was professional and empathetic with my situation. I would highly recommend the law offices of Joe Bornstein to anyone I know.

I had nothing but excellent service, compassion, and warmth from Ben Bornstein and Craig Fredericks. They made everything so easy, comfortable, and convenient. They checked on me frequently and I could tell they really cared. I would 110% recommend to use this office for accident/injury lawyer. Hope I wont need them again, but if I do i know they will be there.

I contacted the offices of Joe Bornstein after my car accident. After a bad experience with my exhusband's lawyer, I was very leary of lawyers. Everyone at the office made me feel welcome and was very reassuring. Amanda made everything very easy for me. The only thing I had to do was concentrate on my recovery from the accident. They took care of everything and I got my settlement. I would definitely recommend them!

I have always chose this law office to help me with my needs, because I feel they actually listen to what you tell them. They care about what happened. For months they would contact me to see how my recovery was going. They also gave me options to see if some other form of treatment would be better and it actually worked! The insurance company I was dealing with didn't want to help or offer a decent settlement. I got this law office involved and now I'm getting not only what I felt was fair, they are getting me more. Thanks again to these amazing people and will definatly use them again if needed!

I was parked in my car and a drunk drive hit me going 40-50mph. My car was totaled and I re-injured my back. I had just finished physical therapy up after back surgery. The accident sent me right back into the doctors and out of a job. Lindsay and Blaire made a bad situation turn into a blessing. I am so grateful for all the hard word and effort the whole team put into my case. Call Joe Bornstein and they will take great care of you and your needs!

I called seeking Social Security disability representation. I explained that my hearing was in less than a month and she pretty much laughed and flat out said “we can’t help you”. I asked if it was because the hearing was so close and she said “Yes, and we would have to decide if we even wanted to represent you”. SUPER unprofessional for someone trying to give them my business as well as making me feel even more lost, helpless, and hopeless than I already do. There was certainly a kinder way that conversation could have gone and I will NEVER encourage anyone to seek their services.

David and I were treated like family from day 1. Our understanding and satisfaction came first while
Michelle always called us promptly with patience and sincerity. Lyn Lemieux was our final contact and
sealed the deal on our five star experience!

I was in a motor vehicle accident in August of 2017. Being involved in an accident is stressful and emotional. From the minute I walked into the Law Offices Of Joe Bornstein, I knew that I would be well taken care of. Andy Bernstein, and the Case Manager Amanda Milinowski were so easy to work with. They took the stress out of my hands and always checked in on my well being. What I was looking forward to was having my medical bills paid, and earning back lost wages from work. I received both of things plus more. Their support and caring was priceless. I am so appreciative of everything they have done for me.

The Law Offices of Joe Bornstein is a firm which my family had utilized in the past. I knew 2'nd hand that their experience was positive, and when I was faced with a personal injury from a motor vehicle accident my spouse suggested that I contact them. At the time I was unaware of the extent of the injuries I had sustained, and I was also unaware of how vital of a role this law firm would play in my recovery and healing. Along the way I discovered my injuries were worse than anticipated and they impacted my ability to work as a nurse and enjoy my life with my husband and children. While experiencing physical pain, loss of sleep, and unpaid leave from my job, it was hard to not fall into a state of high stress and frustration. However, Ben Bornstein and his paralegal Jennifer, were there to support and guide me through the process of facing these medical issues, and working step by step toward regaining my life as it was. From the very beginning their interaction with me was sincere and genuine, with a clear explanation of the process and what to expect. From handling the communication with medical offices, billing and insurance companies, to ensuring that supporting documents were attained for my case, they were there easing my burden so that I could focus my energy on healing. Even when there were moments I undoubtedly was unsure and "down" Jennifer was there to listen assure me that though the process often seems long we were working together to ensure as positive of an outcome as possible. All calls and emails were responded to promptly, and no question was received as unnecessary or not relative. Not only did I receive a settlement which replaced what was lost and then some, after my initial payout, I received a call that when all my medical bills were paid a significant amount was left over and being wired to my account! ( this was 2+ weeks after my payout was received) They were just as happy and excited to deliver good news to me as I was to receive it. Even though I never wish to experience and injury in a MVA again, there is no doubt in my mind who I would call! The professionalism and integrity of this office is amazing, and they do not need to advertise this... their actions demonstrate it. If you are ever in need of representation, or even questioning if you require it... call Joe Bornstein! you will not regret it. Thank you Law Offices of Joe Bornstein.

I want to thank Ben Bornstein and Michelle Pelletier for all their help with my case. They were kind, understanding, personable and answered all my questions and addressed any concerns I had regarding my case. They truly made a difficult time easier to get through.

Ben and his team were extremely patient and helpful while dealing with my accident claim! They remained in contact frequently and always answered any questions/concerns I had within 24 hours of asking! I was worried I would get nothing from my claim but Ben and his team got all my medical bills covered and then some!!! I highly reccomend the Law Offices of Joe Bornstein to anyone, even if you aren't sure you'll get anything out of claim it doesn't hurt to ask them!

From my first meeting with Ben Bornstein and case manager, Michelle Pelletier, I felt confidence in their willingness and ability to work to bring results from my accident. Over the course of eleven months they managed all the details involving reimbursement for medical treatment, thus reducing stress and uncertainty. They kept in touch by phone and email, and answered my questions promptly. They are professionals with a human touch. I would not hesitate to recommend the law offices of Joe Bornstein.

In large part because of your willingness to share the Time & Temp sign with “Uke . . . Fest”, the July 29th Third Annual CascoBay UkeFest generated enough income from tee shirt sales, tickets, raffles, and lunches that we were able to donate $1,000 to the St. Luke’s Food Pantry. I'm certain that attendance was increased because of that sign. Thank you for letting the Time & Temp sign be such a fun and productive part of the Portland community.

I am so grateful for the Law Offices of Joe Bornstein. They have been so generous to my friends and family, donatin their branded merchandise to various events. From block parties, to gymnastics teams, they have put a smile on faces from all around. I cannot thank them enough for their excellent service and kindhearted staff. What a wonderful business.

I have received the best service and empathy from these lawyers. My husband, my two children and I were in a 60mph accident Christmas night 2016. We had a small claim with minimal injuries but still a very traumatic accident in which our car was totalled. Ben Bornstein fought for us to get the amount we thought we deserved despite the adjusters being stubborn because of the situation. He understood the special circumstances of our case and took that into complete consideration. I wouldn't recommend anyone else to take care of an injury claim settlement. Call Joe Borstein. They will listen to you and take care of you. A huge thank you to them for what they have done to help my family.

My experience with Joe couldn't have been better. I was in a bad motorcycle accident that left me injured and unable to work for 2 weeks. I tried my hand at going at it alone but could tell quickly that I was in way over my head. The other drivers insurance company very difficult to work with. That's when I decided to seek professional help and called Joe! Smartest move I ever made. I went from being completely overwhelmed trying to juggle work, doctors visits, and keeping track of all my expenses to going back to normal. I was able to continue my day to day life while Joe and Michelle handled everything. Not only that but they had the case settled MUCH earlier than I predicted and I was completely satisfied with the outcome. I wish I had called sooner!

Triumph from tragedy, the most fundamental description of my experience with the Law Office of Joe Bornstein. I suffered a debilitating accident, and being the only income for a family of four, was devastated. With a caring, thoughtful, and most able hand from Joe's office, I was able to completely piece back together a life that had been destroyed in more ways than one. Their knowledge of personal injury law, experience with insurance companies, and easy to understand and follow advice gave me great comfort and a feeling of being at ease knowing that they were in my corner to make sure that my family and I would be taken care of. Thank you all so much for everything that you have done in helping to speed up my road to recovery by alleviating the stress of dealing with big insurance. This was the best call I have ever made.

Once I contacted them, they did everything. They explained about insurance and medpay and what I should expect. They walked me through everything. And then after my initial treatment was done and I was still in pain, they encouraged me to seek other options to ensure that I would get maximum improvement. They were also great about returning phone calls. My two year old son was in the accident with me and they took care of him too. It's a fine establishment.

My doctor actually recommended Joe Bornstein. She had had dealings with the firm before and had a good experience. I was impressed, fully impressed. I had concerns about being down in income. But they were able to help me in five months, which was perfect.

I used the live chat on the website to make my first contact with Joe Bornstein's office. There was a back and forth conversation online about my cases and they said they would get back to me within a short time. I got a call back really quickly. It was a good experience. The office is inviting and they had coffee and the receptionist was warm. It was very comfortable. They always got back to me quickly. In fact, the person that I worked with on my case was actually on vacation at one point when I had called her and she called me back while still on her vacation. The people are great and the lady that handled my cases was absolutely over the top. I mean who calls your on their vacation. She kept me at ease and always got back to me immediately.

The office had a nice atmosphere. They offered me coffee when I first arrived and I was immediately attended to. During my case, if I had a question, it was answered in less than a day and always explained clearly. They give good service and have a great staff. If anybody needs a good lawyer for disability or any injuries, I would tell them to call Joe Bornstein.

Alan was my attorney. And when I called the office he was there in a matter of two hours talking with me about my accident. It took a little longer to settle, but that was fine as I wasn't expecting anything fast. And they kept in contact with me every month, every week if they needed to, and got me more money than we all expected in the long run. I didn't think it was going to turn out as good as it did. I didn't think they were going to get me as much payback as I deserved. But it turned out differently and they were able to get me what I thought and what they thought I deserved. It made me feel ecstatic. At that point I was out of work, so we could use the money which was great. We were able to save some of it as well. For what they did for me, I would definitely recommend them. It was just exceptional, they way they did everything.

I had been denied Social Security benefits and I later saw an ad for Joe Bornstein on TV. So I went to his office and they took over from there and we won the case. I was never without an answer for any questions that I had. The office is clean and very nice. We got to use the Internet television and my lawyer would talk to me remotely. We could see each other as we communicated through the TV screen. I was satisfied with everything they did for me. And I was never without doubt that we would win.

My son was renting at this apartment building and the landlord never took care of the driveway. One morning when it was snowing, it snowed over the ice. I took one heck of a plunge. The ice was really slippery. I knew my hip broke because I could hear the snap. It was really loud. Once my surgery was over I decided to contact a lawyer and see what could be done. I contacted Joe Bornstein and they said I had a case. I had no idea what was going to happen. People were right on top of things. I've never seen anything like it. They called me every week. Joe Bornstein called me personally himself. He was awesome. Very personable. They did everything. It was totally unexpected. I thought I would have to do more than what I did, but I didn't have to do anything. They hired a private investigator. And one thing that blew me away was they told me that if I didn't win the case, I didn't owe them anything. I really didn't expect to get money. I got a lot more than I expected. I'm able to retire now thanks to that. The overall experience was fantastic. From beginning to end they're right there with you. It's like you're family to them, you're not just a client. I would recommend them to everybody.
