We are Maine lawyers dedicated to protecting due process and the right to independent counsel for all, and the rule of law, not rule by the powerful.

Every person and organization deserves fair representation, a cornerstone of our democracy. Attempts to intimidate or punish lawyers for fulfilling their duties undermine justice and threaten our constitutional system. We call on government, the legal community, and the public to reject such efforts and to stand with us in defending fairness, accountability, and democracy.
