"The law of torts (civil wrongs for which the law provides a remedy) is concerned with the allocation of losses arising out of human activities; and since these cover a wide scope, so does this branch of the law.

Arising out of the various and ever-increasing clashes of the activities of persons living in a common society, carrying on business in competition with fellow members of that society, owning property which may in any of a thousand ways affect the persons or property of others -- in short, doing all the things that constitutes modern living -- there must of necessity be losses, or injuries of many kinds sustained as a result of the activities of others. The purpose of the law of torts is to adjust these losses, and to afford compensation for injuries sustained by one person as the result of the conduct of another."

The above quotation summarizes the essence of personal injury law obtaining compensation for injuries sustained by one person as a result of the conduct of others. This is the mission of McKeen & Associates, P.C.
