We have assembled an expert team of personal injury lawyers with over 200 years of combined experience, so if you have been involved in a personal injury, they will do everything in their power to ensure you receive the settlement that you are entitled to, whether it is a car, truck or motorcycle accident, or any other personal injury.

Personal Injury Law Fees & Costs

Legal costs for personal injury cases are determined using a contingency fee structure.

After suffering an injury, often a person will experience income loss or other problems with carrying on with their day-to-day activities resulting in significant changes to their lives. At such a difficult time, legal fees should not create an additional burden. At Mackesy, Smye, we know that an injury or fatality in the family can wreak havoc and that legal fees can only compound the problem. This is the reason that we provide our services to you on a “contingency” basis. This means that you will not have to pay legal fees to us until the successful resolution of your case. This arrangement will be formalized when our firm takes on your case. In the course of resolving your claim, we will ensure that you are aware of what your net recovery will be after all fees, disbursements, and taxes are paid.

“My family and I would like to send this note of appreciation to you and your staff for all you did in the handling of the recent settlement. Your time and consideration to us all was much appreciated.”

Hamilton & Toronto Community & Events

Mackesy Smye has a long history of giving back to the community. The entire team at Mackesy Smye are grateful for the opportunities that our community has provided, and giving back is our way of saying thank you.
