In matters of public policy, solid strategy begins with a clear understanding of the issues, the interests, and the influence needed to achieve results.
Each issue presents unique challenges and opportunities. We take the time to get to know your business and your goals. By becoming fluent in your interests, we can chart a strategic path forward and be agile in identifying opportunities for success.
Our talented team of lawyers, lobbyists, campaign leaders, and public relations experts works cohesively to develop multidimensional strategic solutions to ensure no opportunity for progress is missed.
The Maine Street Solutions team has a proven track record of success and a trusted reputation for delivering effective solutions. We commit to understanding not only your goals but also your business strategy and market positioning, so we can determine the best path forward to achieve your desired outcome.
Maine Street Solutions is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Verrill, Maine’s largest law firm. We bring you the best of both worlds — a nimble and dynamic public affairs team working hard to achieve your goals, with access to the resources and expertise of a full-service law firm.


Under the leadership of Mike Saxl, former Speaker of the Maine House of Representatives, and with a diverse array of in-house and affiliate consultants, Maine Street Solutions offers the experience of former state and municipal elected officials, senior government leaders, business and nonprofit executives, political campaign experts, and public relations specialists. We understand how government works and how to work with government.
Mike has been recognized by The Best Lawyers in America every year since 2008 and recognized as “The Laywer of the Year” in 2013, 2020, and 2024 for his work in Government Relations Practice.
“All of us at Vaccinate Your Family owe Mike Saxl and his team a debt of gratitude for the support they offered us in dealing with the Maine Ethics Commission. Had Maine Street Solutions not been by our side, I have no doubt that we would have had a very different outcome. We would recommend Maine Street Solutions to anyone looking for support as they navigate government relations in Maine.”
