I was in a legal bind, and my former hired law firm did not.... "Communicate effectively" or we had a "break down in communication" (what the former firm representative TOLD me to say). They did not truly even try to show positive regard or demonstrate that they knew me as a person or even as a client case file after the intake. There were many discrepancies and drama for me with that firm's bias, transferance, disorganization and hostility with mixed signals. I know I didn't feel welcome, and some points it's like my case was not on their radar or a priority even on MY days for court or scheduled phone appointments (hours or interactions I was to be paying for). I was always treated like a last minute idea, ill informed and heckled or left looking dumb during court appearances due to the "communication break down". After talking to MacGillivray's intake, administrative assistants and the lawyers themselves over the phone; THEY seem to know who I am, took notes or remember my situation or specifics. They are in the process of assisting me with my case and I cannot comment much more. In short, my experience between another firm from in another province (my former home) and how they treated me; compared to MacGillivray Law Firm in the new province of which I live in: MacGillivray have been professional, cared, did their best to understand, never rushing me or brushing me off or invalidating me because of the peculiarities surrounding how I ended up at my witts end with the former legal encounter. They took over and my stress, anxiety, and negative self talk has been eased and not directly triggered .... The feeling of being respected has helped me get to a better inner space (with more work needed). You shouldn't have to pay to be treated with empathy and humility. In my prior situation, I was to be paying and STILL treated in a way that did not seem normal. Living with the ramifications after an auto accident is difficult enough. To know and feel the legal representation you hire, care and are professional: its a blessing. Money can't buy that, and I am not a crying person but tears of joy ran down my face with MacGillivray's Law Firm. Hope restored and no matter the outcome: I know MacGillivray Law Firm didn't lead me on, write me off, lie to me or make a difficult situation worse. The first time I had tears of joy in my life and that was just from speaking to them and waiting until the day they informed me that they are willing to take a look at my case and help me if they can. That's all I ever wanted.... And they delivered. Anything else that happens is God's work through them and the legal system to come to a conclusion so I can finally put the accident behind me and my family. We can move forward thanks to MacGillivray. I recommend this firm 100%.

My lawyer took care of everything for me and took the stress away from a very stressful situation.I’m very happy I choose to go with macgillivary law.

Adele Byrne

I appreciated how thorough they were with each step of the process. They outlined the process very well.

Jesiah Mac

One of the worst landlords in the county. Absent. No regard for the state of his properties. Expensive. Believes commercial rates in impoverished Pictou County should be similar to those in Halifax. Slow. When doing upgrades like new flooring, simple jobs take months to complete. No focus. No regard for finishing a task before starting a new one. Also skirts labour laws. MPL takes full advantage of new business owners by intentionally omitting important information in the lease when he knows they won't know the difference. Don't be taken advantage of by this crook.

Celeste Janes

My lawyer was Brandon and I could not be more impressed with the help I received. I was communicated with through every step. Any questions or concerns I had were answered in a timely manner. The nature of my situation made my medical bills add up swiftly. He arranged a treatment advance so I could get the help I needed. I was supported when I wanted to settle with my various options clearly laid out for me along with realistic timelines. I ended up receiving a fair settlement and I would reccomend him to anyone. Thankyou Brandon and Amanda for all your help, could not of done it without you.

Rod Etheridge

I recently had to deal with MacGillivray law firm after a car accident and was pretty unsure of how things are done, since my only experience with lawyers is through a mortgage. But Shaylyn Oxner and the staff there made it a very comfortable and understandable process. I appreciate how she and the others walked me through every step of the way, giving guidance and advice and letting me know the good and bad of every decision, while also letting me make any final decisions. I really appreciate how much they helped me in the last few years. Rodney Etheridge

Melissa Purdy

Erin Westaway

I would be lost without the help from MacGillivray Law. They made things so easy and convenient for me reducing the stress so I could focus on me and what I needed to get better! Thank you Jen and all the staff that assisted me in my battle with the insurance company! I couldn't have made it without you...from the bottom of my heart! Sincerely. Erin Westaway.

Jill Rediker

After being in an accident I wasn’t sure of what to do about insurance. I kept noticing this advertisement on television about a man and woman involved in an accident and my husband knew the man, so I decided to call Macgillivray Law. Right from the first phone call Jennifer Langille looked after everything. She always kept me well informed. The only thing I had to do was fax some papers to her. I feel like I know her and I haven’t even met her. This past winter my sister in law was hurt in an accident so I referred her to Macgillivray Law.

Joanne Stewart

The fact that someone hit into me was beyond stressful enough, but to have their insurance constantly contacting me was beyond stressful!! Overwhelmed with injury and paperwork that I had no idea that was not needed to be of my worry, Jennifer Langille gave me all the information I had needed to feel more then comfortable to have her take charge in handling everything so I could focus on medical treatment for recovery! Due to my lack of knowledge with legal procedures, I had many questions, and yes I felt that some may not have been wise ones, I was always made to feel that every question was an intelligent one!! Jenn took great care of me!! Even when still working on the claim, I had been hit into again, a hit-n-run, and she looked after that as well! I recommend you to touch base with Jenn if you are feeling overwhelmed with something that you feel that you may need legal help with!!

Hannah MacQuarrie

Easy and hassle free to deal with!

Brenda Appleby

After paying my own premiums for LTD insurance for many years, Manulife rejected my claim. Their "reasons" were infuriating, irrelevant and contradicted the recommendations of two medical expert consultants. My lawyer, Leisa MacIntosh was kind, honest and trustworthy. She was patient with my many concerns and questions. I was privileged to have Leisa as my lawyer. Although my settlement was not quite what I had hoped for, I trust that Leisa got me the best result anyone could have got from Manulife. I highly recommend Leisa MacIntosh and MacGillivray Law.

kenny arsenault

I would certainly recommend this law firm to anyone .. From the moment I walked in and this was a huge step for me everyone I met made me feel so comfortable so my anxiety certainly went down. Jennifer Langille was my lawyer and she explained everything to me as to how she was going to manage my case . I received emails from her and Carla as well as phone calls . They kept me up to date as to what was going on . In the end she won the case for me and without her or her team I would have been left with nothing . So if you think you have a case they are the people to contact. They will tell you upfront whether or not you do and will make you feel so comfortable which when going through something like this is huge .... so my sincere thanks to Jennifer and Carla and there team . Thanks again Jennifer and Carle .Kenny Arsenault

PHILLIP Saddler

Have you ever paid insurance premiums for years and then when you need to make a claim, you're told that you aren't covered? Have you ever felt like an insurance company is giving you the runaround? Well, I have. Thankfully, I reached out to MacGillivray Injury and Insurance Law in New Glasgow. Then it was like hearing Bob Marley singing, "Don't worry, about a thing, cause every little thing, will be alright..." I was helped alright. Seriously, talk to MacGiillivray before talking to your insurance about major claims. You'll save yourself a lot of headache!

Holly MacIntosh

In 2009 I suffered a serious injury that, unfortunately, left me permanently disabled. I could no longer run my business, which I had loved for 15 years. I had no idea where to turn for help. I did some research and came across MacGillivray Injury and Insurance Law. From the very first meeting with Jamie MacGillivray, and the other staff at the New Glasgow office, my husband and I felt I was in very capable hands. All the staff were amazing and Jamie went above and beyond to help lessen my worries and he involved me in every aspect of my case. I was shown compassion and respect at every turn. I will be forever grateful for the effective and professional representation I received.

Katie McKenna

Justin Clarke

Updating previous post. I originally said the fees ended up being higher then expected. Jamie himself called me to resolve this minor issue, and took pride in finding a resolution for me. Good customer service.

Cheryl Heighton

This law company was great , nobody ever knows really want to do when a accident happens but from day 1 she not only very personable but very understanding and didn’t mind getting a phone call to explain things out one more time just because we needed clarification on something she always had our best needs and what was best for me and my family in mind . I know Jenn Langille would say no need to thank me ... but you were fantastic, thanks again from our family to Macgillary Law . Highly recommend !

david chislett

Charlotte Fisher

Praise for Angelli at MacGillivray Law - New Glasgow I suffered from a fall on unkept government property, causing whiplash and lasting damage to my shoulder, arm and neck. I needed extensive therapy. On advice from my daughter and my brother, I called MacGillivray Law in New Glasgow - best choice ever! From my very first meeting with Angelli she made me feel so comfortable. I knew I could put my faith in her, and that I was in good hands. Angelli kept me calm and informed each step of the way , throughout the entire process. I could not be happier with Angelli's results, she delivered! If there's any need again, Angelli will be my first call. I would highly recommend Angelli to anyone.

When I first went to macgillivray I was super upset and nervous but they made me feel nothing but comfort and compassion. They made me feel like they cared about my family and myself like we are their own family. What was already a very stressful situation, with just the first conversation with MacGillivray, they made it seem so much less stressful. I recommend them 100%. You won’t be disappointed.

Amanda Bradshaw

I would not have been able to afford the treatment that *finally* helped my post-car accident injuries if it weren't for MacGillivray and Insurance Law. I was very early in my first pregnancy and had to take a lot of time off of my physically demanding job due to pain before going on maternity leave, so my income was severely compromised. Although I had coverage for the treatment I needed, I paid for a lot up front out of pocket before my insurance got around to approving it and without the settlement I received, I would not have been able to do that!

Erica Humber-Shears

McGillivray Law helped me settle my disability claim. I had fought with my insurance company for almost a year with not headway....then I heard about McGillivray Law. Without their help I don't know where I would be. They have a very friendly staff who made me feel comfortable and confident. I would highly recommend their services.

Paul Matheson

Awesome

John Murphy

I contacted MacGillivray law after being denied my CPPD and long term disability. They had my case settled in 8 months. They were professional, knowledgeable, responsive to any questions or concerns I had, and respectful. I was treated fairly and they fought for the best outcome, not giving up until they got it. I highly recommend MacGillivrary Law to anyone who has been denied their disability benefits. John Murphy

Rhonda Jesso

From day one, I felt comfortable with Melanie at MacGillivray Law. She led the way with her expertise and knowledge, and I never felt pressured in any way. I am very satisfied with everyone that I dealt with.
