Biography

Elizabeth Kayatta is an impassioned advocate for her clients with a track record of success in the courtroom. As a trial attorney at Berman & Simmons, she helps deliver justice for people who have suffered catastrophic and life-altering injuries. Her practice includes personal injury lawsuits arising out of medical errors, child sexual abuse, reckless driving, and dangerous premises.

Elizabeth has a reputation as a strategic and fearless advocate for her clients in medical malpractice cases. She takes on claims against medical providers and hospitals across Maine and Massachusetts. Her experience with handling complex healthcare negligence includes cases involving spinal injury, paralysis, surgical errors, nerve damage, delayed diagnosis, and birth injuries.

Elizabeth is at the forefront of trauma-informed lawyering, which gives her the specialized tools to represent survivors of sexual abuse and assault. She helps survivors navigate the emotionally-fraught process of seeking justice against perpetrators of abuse and the organizations that enabled the abuse to occur. Among her achievements, Elizabeth has recovered some of the largest sexual abuse settlements in the state.

Elizabeth also handles a broad range of personal injury claims, including representing people who were killed or severely injured by motor vehicle collisions, trampoline parks, dangerous premises, animal attacks, defective products, and negligent supervision.
