About this Firm

The core of Richardson, Whitman, Large & Badger's practice is civil litigation. We are one of the largest and most diverse trial practice firms in Northern New England. From offices in Portland and Bangor we handle hundreds of cases in all of Maines's state and federal courthouses. In addition, RWLB has developed an extensive labor and employment practice: counseling clients, writing policies and employee handbooks, and handling cases filed in the Maine Human Rights Commission, the EEOC, and all Maine courts

RWLB’s trial practice covers the full breadth of civil litigation, from products liability to professional malpractice, from dam construction to ship collision, from gender discrimination to wiretapping and criminal defense. Our clients include small family businesses, local Maine companies, and some of the world's largest multinational corporations. They come from all sectors of the economy and have included automakers, construction contractors, retailers, electric utilities, insurers, law firms, lending institutions, supermarkets, doctors, consumer product manufacturers, insurance agencies, and municipalities
