Personal Injury - Scotland (Bar)
Individual Editorial
Ian Mackay KC is capable of handling cases across the full spectrum of personal injury. He has a particular specialism in stress and catastrophic injury work. His capabilities include fatal claims or disputes involving heavily contested liability. He acts for both pursuers and defenders, and he is known for his expertise in cross-examination.
Strengths
Ian is a go-to senior who comes into his own in negotiation and at the court stage. He is an outstanding court performer, a formidable cross-examiner and an expert negotiator.
His greatest strength is his advocacy. I've not seen a better counsel on his feet and not seen any counsel better able to present complex issues to civil juries than him.
