5 more licensed lawyers in cities in Androscoggin County during October 2023 compared to the previous month

3edited

Cities in Androscoggin County had a growth in the number of lawyers with active licenses during October 2023 compared to the previous month, according to the Board of Overseers of the Bar.

In total, there were 204 active legal licenses registered in cities in Androscoggin County in October 2023, compared to 199 in the previous month.

The highest number of licenses granted per city in Androscoggin County during the month was in Auburn, totaling three.

Up until recently, Maine was the only US state without any public defenders, relying solely on private attorneys to represent low-income defendants. In 2022, it hired five public defenders to cover these cases statewide, but 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.

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.

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

As of 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.
