Mr. McKinstry was incredibly helpful after my devastating car accident. His compassion towards me and my family was heartfelt and meant so much to me. He explained and clarified all aspects of our case, and never hesitated to answer questions I had. Mr. McKinstry and his team fought diligently on my behalf with all the insurance companies involved to bring full settlements. We are very thankful for Mr. McKinstry and his assistance. I highly recommend Mr. McKinstry!

Mike was professional and compassionate as he guided us through the tragedy of the wrongful death of our son that we faced. We would recommend Mike to any person facing litigation with an insurance company.

Mike is a consummate professional. His and his team kept me constantly up to date on my case, and provided quick answers to every question that I had. He was able to secure the maximum settlement possible for my case, and I couldn't have done that without them.

Mike did an awesome job representing me and took care of every details! His office was great always in communication with me and letting me know what’s going and if there’s any updates or changes in the case. The Law Firm itself isn’t well known to me and my husband cause they’ve helped us before in different cases. I highly recommend Mike and his team!

I, like many others had a negative view of lawyers in my head. We often see them portrayed by the mainstream media as smooth talking, cold, and heartless. In fact, they seemed to be the common scapegoat for many of societies ills. It was because of this preconceived notion that I had in my head that I was afraid to approach one when I desperately needed to hire one. This is when I met Mr. McKinstry, and the members of his firm. The first thing that struck me about McKinstry, is that he made you feel like he had all of the time in the world. The consultation was free, and I ended up spending 2 and a half hours with him talking about my case. It was almost like spending time with your caring grandfather. He truly was invested not in the prospect of you as a potential consumer, but you as a person, and helping you become your best you. I had suffered a traumatic brain injury in a car accident, and it had been two years. I was at a standstill, and not only did he help me bring much needed closure, but he also gave me direction in life. He was able to settle the case for more than I ever expected, and DRASTICALLY reduce my medical bills. This wasn't this best part though, he directed me to professionals that helped set me on a new course in life after I couldn't continue doing my old trade. He constantly checked in on me via email, and he had a very kind and gentle demeanor. He even made a visit to my home to discuss the case to my family. He went over, and above his obligations. He helped bring a closure to a long, and arduous journey. I will never forget what this man did for me. He will always hold a soft spot in my heart, and I will forever see him as a turning point in my life. He had a much larger impact on my life than just being good at his job. McKinstry is what all attorneys, no.... human beings should aim to be.

I hired Mr. McKinstry to work on my personal injury case in 2013, and I could not have been more pleased with the results. I appreciated his kindness, sensitivity and dedication to my case to achieve a just result. I am so thankful.

Micheal is not only a wonderful attorney, he is also a wonderful person. In our case he was extremely helpful. I just want to take a moment and thank him for all he has done for me and my family. We very much appreciate all of your hard work. Thank you so much, may God bless you and your family!

I called Mr. McKinstry when I found myself in a sticky situation. He listened to the facts, advised me about the legal remedies, and ended up referring me to his colleague. He sets the bar for professionalism and wisdom.

Mike is one of the first calls I make when I come up against big decisions or tricky situations. He always has a unique and insightful set of questions, bringing new light to the issue in a way I usually haven't considered. He also has an incredible ability to drive to the heart of an issue, letting lesser considerations fall to their proper place. In his words: "Major in the majors; minor in the minors." These qualities and more will keep me coming back to Mike when I need to get un-stuck.

As a small business owner, I have called on Michael McKinstry on several occasions for both legal advice, as well as to help work through mediating the dissolution of an extremely difficult business partnership. Michael, and his team, have handled every situation with professionalism, and a personal touch that's rare in legal circles. While in the midst of the legal battle surrounding my business, I was able to call on Michael for advice related to my concerns (and stresses), both large and small. I would highly recommend Michael McKinstry, and his firm, Ellis, Li & McKinstry to anyone seeking an advocate for justice whose expertly skilled in matters of law. More importantly, his team is results-oriented, and they have consistently demonstrated excellence, integrity and fairness on every occasions that I've called on them.
