Rudman Winchell

Excellent pro bono counselors with this loyal firm. Saddened that other phony greedy firms, don't follow public interest on reliable needed Bangor lawyers.

David Walker was very professional and knowledgeable with my cases years ago. I highly recommend him at Rudman Winchell.

If you require representation by a law firm with impeccable ethical standards, look elsewhere. If a cavalier attitude about the appearance of impropriety or being willing to subvert the will of Maine voters to achieve a business goal dont bother you, then this could be the firm for you! A staffer at Rudman Winchell posed as a 'concerned neighbor', interfering in a vote on a local ordinance by writing a letter full of misinformation in support of one of the firm's clients whose interests would be affected by the outcome. This could not have happened without their knowledge. The lies were bad enough, but the concealment backfired. The advice they provided their clients was not effective; public sentiment went against them. The client claimed in public remarks that the staffer had been let go prior to writing the letter but there's no evidence to support that, nor would that have made her any less of an associate. But all that pales in comparison with their initial strategy, to push their client's proposal past an ordinance which was clearly meant to prohibit projects over a certain size. They built a house of cards on the existence of a minor wording error. Be warned: after being defeated by the voters they still didnt take no for an answer and tried to get a favorable decision in Superior Court, further wasting their clients money. The meritless case has been dismissed.
