Practice Areas
Clear Answers. Strong Advocacy. Real Outcomes.
At Gross Injury Law, attorney Colton Gross provides focused, compassionate, and strategic representation to individuals and families facing life-changing injuries, losses, and insurance disputes. Every case is unique, and Colton takes the time to understand your circumstances, your concerns, and your goals—so he can build the strongest possible path forward for you.
Our firm serves clients throughout Maine in the following practice areas:
Personal Injury Representation
Serious injuries can turn your life upside down - physically, emotionally, and financially. Medical bills accumulate quickly. Time away from work leads to lost wages. And in many cases, your long-term earning potential and day-to-day quality of life may be permanently affected. When someone else’s negligence is to blame, we will protect your rights and fight for full and fair compensation.
Colton manages every aspect of your case - from communication with insurance companies to evidence gathering, filings, negotiations, and trial preparation - so you can focus on your recovery.
We represent clients in a wide range of personal injury matters, including:
-
Motor Vehicle Collisions
Car, motorcycle, truck, rideshare, and pedestrian accidents require prompt investigation and skilled negotiation. We gather evidence, work with experts, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term impacts.
-
Slip-and-Fall & Premises Liability
If unsafe property conditions lead to injury—such as icy walkways, poor lighting, unsafe stairs, or neglected hazards—we hold property owners accountable for failing to maintain safe environments.
-
Dog Bites & Animal-Related Injuries
We advocate for victims of dog bites and other animal attacks, seeking compensation for medical treatment, permanent scarring, emotional trauma, and lost wages.
-
Catastrophic Injuries
Catastrophic injuries often require lifelong medical care and support. We pursue compensation that fully reflects both immediate and future needs, including long-term care, rehabilitation, and loss of earning capacity.
-
Wrongful Death
When a loved one is lost due to negligence, families face both emotional devastation and financial uncertainty. We guide families with compassion while pursuing justice and accountability on their behalf.
Medical Malpractice
When we seek medical care, we trust that healthcare professionals will provide safe, competent treatment. Unfortunately, medical errors remain a leading cause of preventable injury. These cases can be deeply complex and emotionally challenging, often requiring extensive expert analysis.
Gross Injury Law represents individuals harmed by:
Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
Surgical errors
Medication and prescription mistakes
Birth injuries
Negligent medical treatment
Failure to monitor or respond to complications
We work with qualified medical experts to identify where care fell short and to build a compelling, evidence-based case demonstrating how that negligence caused harm. Because medical malpractice cases often involve long-term or permanent impact, Colton approaches each case with the sensitivity, rigor, and persistence required to pursue meaningful results.
Insurance Claim Litigation
Insurance exists to protect you when the unexpected happens—but many policyholders discover that getting fair treatment from their insurer can be more difficult than it should be. Whether your claim involves property damage, business interruption, or the aftermath of a devastating fire, you deserve an advocate who can stand up to the insurance company and ensure your rights are upheld.
- Our Mission is Simple -
to protect policyholders and hold insurance companies accountable.
We represent policyholders only - never insurance companies.
-
Common issues policyholders experience include:
Delayed payments
Partial or improper claim denials
Unreasonable requests for documentation
Undervalued assessments of damage
Outright refusals to pay valid claims -
Fire Loss Claims
A fire can destroy your home, business, or personal possessions in moments. The emotional and financial toll is immense. When an insurer delays, disputes, or denies a fire loss claim, the hardship only deepens. We work closely with trusted public adjusters to ensure your losses are thoroughly documented, accurately valued, and pursued aggressively.

Criminal Defense
Gross Injury Law represents individuals facing a wide range of charges, from misdemeanors to serious felony offenses. We understand that a criminal charge can be overwhelming, stressful, and deeply personal - often carrying consequences that affect your freedom, reputation, and future.
With a strong command of the United States Constitution and Maine criminal law, we work diligently to protect your rights at every stage of the process. From the moment charges are filed, we carefully evaluate the evidence, identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, and develop a defense strategy tailored to your specific circumstances. We advocate for fair treatment during investigations, negotiations, and bail determinations, and we pursue favorable resolutions through dismissals, charge reductions, or plea negotiations when appropriate.
When a case must be litigated, we are prepared to represent you at preliminary hearings, motion practice, and trial. Throughout the process, we prioritize clear communication, honest guidance, and strategic decision-making—so you can move forward with confidence and clarity.
