314 lawyers with active licenses to practice law in cities in Penobscot County

5edited

There were 314 lawyers with active licenses in cities located within Penobscot County as of February, according to the Board of Overseers of the Bar.

This is a decrease from the previous month, when there were 316 lawyers.

Within Penobscot County, Bangor had the highest number of lawyers with active licenses during February (243).

Maine, previously the only state without public defenders, now faces a shortage despite the recent addition of five attorneys. State officials acknowledged that this number falls short of meeting the current demands. Justin Andrus, executive director of the Maine Commission on Indigent Legal Services, said the state cannot effectively rely on only five people to address systemic issues.

To tackle the problem, Governor Janet Mills proposed allocating $17 million to hire ten more attorneys.

At the same time, the state was found to be struggling when representing clients requiring legal aid or who couldn't afford their own lawyers. A 2021 report revealed that more than one in eight assignments requiring specialized representation were given to ineligible attorneys.

As of Dec. 2023, the average salary for a lawyer in Maine is around $101,226 per year.

Data refers to all lawyers who were actively practicing during this period.
