Parker McCay’s Defense Litigation Group represents self-insured and governmental entities, as well as insured parties and insurance companies, in local, state and federal litigation involving claims for coverage, personal injury, property damage, emotional distress and damage to reputation, among others. With comprehensive experience in defense litigation, we possess the expertise necessary to successfully defend clients in a wide range of areas, including: Automobile Liability Civil Rights Litigation Employment Litigation General Liability Government Liability Medical Malpractice Premises Liability Product Liability Professional Liability We provide aggressive litigation and effective case management, working in partnership with our clients to ensure the favorable disposition of litigation as quickly and efficiently as possible. However, we realize that a client’s best case scenario is to avoid litigation altogether. Therefore, we regularly counsel clients on risk management issues, identifying and evaluating existing or potential areas of liability. We conduct seminars and thinking groups on policies and procedures, as well as specific incidents that could potentially result in litigation, developing strategies to ultimately minimize risk.
