Personal Injury

Personal injury is an extensive area of law that encompasses accidents and other events leading to physical, emotional, and/or financial harm that is caused by someone else’s negligence or misconduct. When you are injured, you are confronted with challenges such as the pain of your physical injuries that are compounded by the financial impact and, of course, emotional distress. The combination can be devastating. Regrettably, the law does not wait for you to heal and in most cases neither will your financial obligations. If you postpone taking legal action you can lose your right to compensation. Raymond E. MacKay has the experience and knowledge to help you navigate your personal injury lawsuit so you can get back to living your life.

Medical malpractice

We put our health and our lives in the hands of trained medical professionals every day, trusting them to be capable, reliable, and caring. Whether you have necessary medical care due to an unexpected emergency or have had the time to carefully choose your doctor to deal with your specific health needs, you are entitled to and have a legal right to be treated with a certain standard of care. Far too many patients end up in worse condition or die due to medical malpractice.

Automobile accidents

When vehicles collide, damaged vehicles can be repaired or replaced. Auto accidents can range from minor to fatal, and most of us will be involved in one at some point in our lives. But, what happens to the human occupants inside? If you have been involved in an auto accident, you need the help of an attorney who has an in-depth understanding of your type of case. By understanding you and your case we make the legal system open to you, so you can achieve justice, because you cannot rely on the insurance companies to do the right thing.

From minor fender benders to catastrophic multi-car pile-ups, most people are involved in at least one automobile accident in their lifetime. In the aftermath of an accident you face car repair bills at the very least, and often devastating injuries, lost wages, and even the loss of a loved one. Insurance companies will try to keep their payment to a minimum or avoid paying altogether. Often time they will attempt to intimidate and pressure you into signing away your rights. The MacKay Law Firm can shield you from predatory insurance companies, safeguarding your claim to compensation.

Types of accidents

The type of accident in which you are involved can affect the intricacy of your case. Semi truck accidents are more complicated than regular auto accidents, as they involve trucking companies, their insurance companies and complicated trucking laws. Likewise, bus and train accidents almost always have multiple victims as well as multiple defendants, including government entities. Some of the most devastating auto accidents involve motorcycles or pedestrians, where the unprotected human body collides with a vehicle, typically causing horrific bodily injury.

Premises Liability

Property and business owners have a legal duty to provide a safe environment for guests and customers. Premises liability covers accidents such as slip and fall and injuries caused by violent attacks that happened because of negligent security.
