Michael Saxl
Mike Saxl joined Verrill Dana following his service as Speaker of the House in the 120th Maine Legislature (2000-2002).

While representing his Portland district, Mr. Saxl pursued a variety of initiatives, from seeking increased access to affordable health care, to championing tax credits aimed at creating new educational opportunities. Prior to serving as Speaker, he served as Majority Leader (1998-2000) and Majority Whip (1996-1998). As a legislator, Mr. Saxl honed an expertise on many diverse issues ranging from health care and higher education to tax reform and domestic violence. When Maine's term limit law precluded him from returning to the State House it was only natural for Mr. Saxl to seek out new avenues to continue to pursue his passion for multilateral strategic thinking and planning.

At Verrill Dana, Mr. Saxl is using his public policy expertise to provide a cutting-edge combination of services to clients, under the aegis of Maine Street Solutions, the firm's new public affairs and consulting group. The venture will provide the firm with a variety of new capabilities, including traditional legislative advocacy, public relations, grass-tops and grass roots advocacy, strategic communications and campaign management.

Mr. Saxl is a graduate of Bowdoin College, and received his law degree cum laude from the University of Maine School of Law.
