      “

      “Highly Recommended” is the epitome of an understatement when it comes to the firm of McDonald At Law!! Michael McDonald’s genuine pleasant, and empathetic demeanor masks his legal astuteness, and the level of aggressiveness he implements in pursuit of a victim’s right and the monetary compensation legally entitled to us. I was involved in a motor vehicle accident at the hands of an intoxicated driver in York County. In my case I suffered what I described as an atypical injury, Mr. McDonald offered to be my Lawyer immediately after explaining to him the events leading to and after being struck in turn causing me to have a heart attack, when another law firm seemed hesitant. McDonald At Law secured a sizable monetary compensation that not only met my expectation but exceeded it. Mr. McDonald’s wealth of experience, and legal prowess is priceless and never did he act as the case was beneath his practice. In the end my family and I were well compensated, but also felt justified. Thank you McDonald At Law!!

      Back in 2014 I was injured didn’t know what to do but my wife suggested I call Mike McDonald at law I’m not going to say that I really believe in luck but I will say it was the greatest blessing of my entire life that I had the opportunity to pick the best lawyer in Pennsylvania and maybe all of America in Mike McDonald. I needed surgery and Mike came to my home just to make sure that I was OK personally, and he told me not to worry about anything but to just get well he really cares about people and that is something you can’t pay for. Mike’s firm was the most professional operation I have ever had the opportunity to witness over the last 3 1/2 years . All I can say is this if you’ve been injured and you need help there’s only one person that you should call and that’s McDonald at law. From my experience is that when I arrived at his office the first time I met a lawyer and when I left his office the last time I felt like I had a friend. For superior service and expert litigation, remember there’s only one number to call if you ever get hurt it’s McDonald at law.

      Understanding Traumatic Brain Injuries

      A traumatic brain injury can cause irreparable damage to the brain. Common types of traumatic brain injuries include:

      • Coup injuries: A coup injury occurs when a sudden, violent stop causes the brain to accelerate forward and impact the side of the skull.
      • Contrecoup injuries: A contrecoup injury occurs when the brain accelerates forward and impacts one side of the skull before bouncing off the other side of the skull.
      • Closed injuries: A closed brain injury occurs when the brain is damaged by an external force. It is important to remember that even when a victim’s skull is not fractured, he or she can still suffer a traumatic brain injury.
      • Penetrating injuries: A penetrating brain injury occurs when the skull is penetrated by an object or fractured due to an external force. Though all forms of traumatic brain injury are severe, penetrating head injuries can be particularly catastrophic.
      • Focal injuries: A focal brain injury occurs at one spot of the brain. Many traumatic brain injuries are focal injuries, as they often result from a specific external force striking the skull at one point.
      • Diffuse injuries: A diffuse brain injury (or multifocal brain injury) occurs over a wide area of brain tissue. In many cases, diffuse brain injuries do not result from an external factor. Instead, these injuries may result from hypoxia, meningitis or blood tissue damage.

      Knowing what type of injury your loved one has suffered is important since it can help our team determine the cause of your loved one’s injury and establish liability.

      Full And Fair Compensation In Traumatic Brain Injury Cases

      Because traumatic brain injuries can have such lasting effects on a client and his or her loved ones, damages in these cases can be significant. If it can be shown that your loved one’s injury resulted from another party’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for:

      • Medical bills
      • Continuing care costs
      • Loss of wages
      • Loss of future wages
      • Loss of earning capacity
      • Loss of companionship
      • Pain and suffering

      In cases where it can be shown that the defendant was recklessly negligent, it may also be possible to file for punitive damages. This type of compensation is levied against the defendant in addition to standard damages to prevent similar actions in the future. In all traumatic brain injury cases, our goal is to recover damages that will be sufficient to provide a lifetime of care.
