Cities within Oxford County saw no changes in the number of lawyers with active licenses during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the previous quarter, according to the Maine Board of Overseers of the Bar.

In total, there were 31 active legal licenses registered in the county in the second quarter of 2025.

Within Oxford County, Rumford had the highest number of lawyers with active licenses during the second quarter (6).

A Maine Superior Court judge ruled in January 2025 that the state has failed to provide legal representation to many indigent defendants, violating their constitutional rights. The decision follows a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union of Maine, which argued that the state’s public defense system does not meet Sixth Amendment requirements.

As of June 1, 2025, average lawyer salaries in Maine ranged from $97,598 for an entry-level attorney handling routine legal work (Attorney I) to $246,617 for highly experienced attorneys managing complex cases with significant autonomy (Attorney V). Mid-level attorneys, such as those in Attorney III roles—who handle highly complex legal work with moderate supervision—earned on average $182,660 in Maine, compared to $174,969 nationwide.

Data refers to all lawyers who were actively practicing during this period.
