Why Clients Trust Us With the Cases That Matter Most
We Take the Cases Others Won't
Many law firms shy away from complex litigation against large corporations, trucking companies, or global manufacturers. We don’t. With decades of trial experience, cutting-edge resources, and deep technical knowledge, we take on high-stakes cases that demand meticulous preparation and courtroom skill — the kind of cases that change lives and set legal precedents.
A True Team on Every Case
At McCartney Stucky LLC, you don’t just hire one attorney — you get the strength of our entire trial team. From investigation to verdict, our lawyers collaborate on every detail, pooling their skills and insights to outmatch even the most aggressive defense teams.
Fighting for Maximum Compensation
Quick settlements often mean leaving money on the table — and that’s not our style. We relentlessly pursue the full value of your claim, factoring in future medical needs, lost income, and the long-term impact on you and your family. Our mission is simple: secure the best possible outcome, no matter how hard the fight.
Dedicated Evidence Storage
We maintain a private evidence storage facility equipped with a vehicle lift, allowing us to preserve and inspect critical evidence that many firms can’t. And when cases require it, we arrange secure storage for vehicles across the country — ensuring vital evidence is always protected for our clients nationwide.
Trial-Focused from Day One
We prepare every case as if it will go before a jury. This early, aggressive strategy not only ensures we’re ready for court but also creates leverage during negotiations, often leading to stronger settlement offers for our clients.
Local Roots, National Reach
Rooted in New York and the Kansas City Metro, our firm proudly serves clients across the nation. While grounded in these home bases, our reach extends far beyond state lines. Trusted to handle significant matters nationwide, our team delivers powerful, results-driven representation wherever justice calls.
Built for Complex Litigation
We maintain a selective caseload so we can immerse ourselves fully in every case. From defective heavy trucks to unsafe consumer products, we take on cases that demand more — more time, more skill, more resources, and more resolve.
Our specialized knowledge in areas like commercial truck defects, post-collision fires and all types of automotive defects gives our clients a distinct advantage, whether at the negotiating table or in the courtroom.

“Five years ago, I had a really bad car accident. I went through a long rehabilitation process and during this time I looked for legal representation. I called many lawyers but nobody believed in me until I found Terry McCartney. Terry came, in person, to my home and helped me out from the first moment. Thanks to the settlement, now I can live much better.”
--Miriam P.
“After my spinal cord was severed in an automobile accident Terry and his colleagues have expertly managed my claim against the car manufacturer. Shortly after the accident I moved from NY to CA and Terry has handled the remote interaction seamlessly. He has promptly responded to all of my inquiries, managed and coordinated the litigation in a professional manner and managed my interaction with all manner of experts perfectly. I give Terry my 100% recommendation."
