I started McKay Law to provide client focused and result orientated legal services. After practicing law for many years at a large law firm, I learned that not every case requires an army of lawyers. Many cases are more effectively handled by a single experienced lawyer overseeing every aspect of the work.
I find the work interesting and exciting. At the time of your first contact, I will make certain that you feel at ease discussing your important legal issues. I provide each client with individualized attention and work to craft a strategy that targets your goals and bottom line. On my desk is a sculpture of The Thinker. It reminds me that I have won most of my cases by a series of strategic choices that were well thought out and skillfully executed.
I am a fighter. I've always been a fighter. It is in my DNA. Whether I’m litigating a class action involving thousands of people against a multinational conglomerate, or an individual case protecting one client's rights, I fight with the same passion and conviction. As a former amateur boxer, and a current Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitor, I believe in standing up for every client – and I am willing to go to the mat for each one.

Great Attorney!
Worked with Michael on a mediation issue and his advice and guidance was invaluable. He helped me prepare and manage the entire process. I would 100% recommend Mike.

Extremely proffeional and explains his points so I understood what was going to happen each step of the way
I was Sued in Fed Court by an international vc firm. Their goal was to wipe me out as a competitor. Mike first defended my case and then successfully filed counterclaims that the VC firm was unable to defend. If it wasn't for Mike my business would have went out of business. He saved me and my family...

I give Mike Mckay a strong thumbs up as a smart, hard fighting attorney who will protect your interests and stand up to the legal bullies. I retained Mike to help and defend me from a nationally recognized and rather infamous out-of-State attorney who specializes in attacking guys like me. I had deal...

I Recommend Lawyer Michael McKay
Mr. McKay represented me in a securities fraud lawsuit. He prepared my complaint, handled the discovery, and helped facilitate a settlement. I found him to be honest, intelligent, and very hard working. He cared about my case, and finding an attorney who cares is important to me. I'd reccomend Mr. ...
"Mike is one of those rare lawyers who is not only smart and hardworking, but truly cares about the best interests of his clients. I've co-counseled with Mike on several complex commercial and class action matters over the years. Mike works hard to resolve matters in the most efficient way possible, but can also fight the good fight if that is what is required. He is great to work with and always earns the trust and respect of his clients and the other lawyers on the case. Mike is an excellent choice for whatever your legal needs."
"Michael served as our local counsel on a number of complex securities class actions, including a complex derivative litigation involving a multi-billion dollar company. Through his superb command of the law, the AZ legal community, and negotiating skills, Michael assisted in securing a fabulous result for the company in question, and its shareholders. I highly recommend Mike to anyone needing a superb litigator with deep connections and knowledge of the AZ legal community."
"I strongly endorse Michael McKay. He is a very shrewd civil litigator and brings strong legal skills and common sense to any issue. I'd certainly go to Michael were I faced with any civil litigation matter of significance."
"I endorse Michael McKay. Mike and I worked together at Bonnett Fairbourn Friedman & Balint, P.C. Mike exhibited an unparalleled work ethic, a sharp wit, and a measured tenacity which benefited his clients greatly. Mike is respected and enjoyed in the community, and ensures his clients are well represented."
