    This quick reference guide for civil litigators summarizes the legal requirements of virtually every cause of action based in tort recognized in Maine. The authors bring it all together for you - the cases, the statutes and applicable procedural rules.

    The common law and statutory requirements for each cause of action are examined in detail and the law of other states is referenced where Maine law is lacking or where useful comparisons can be made. The authors discuss the principles underlying tort damages, as well as tort liability.
