Injured?
Don’t Wait.
Insurance companies move fast — so should you. Let’s talk about your case today.
What types of cases do you handle?
We focus on Personal Injury, Workers’ Compensation, and Social Security Disability cases for clients across Kentucky.
Do you offer free consultations?
Yes. We offer a FREE consultation so you can talk with our team about what happened and what your options may be.
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
You pay no fee unless we win. We work on a contingency fee, meaning you don’t owe attorney’s fees unless we recover money/benefits for you.
What areas of Kentucky do you serve?
We help injury victims across Kentucky, including areas like Jefferson County, Oldham County, and beyond.
What should I do after a car accident or serious injury?
Prioritize safety and medical care, document what you can (photos, witness info, report numbers), and avoid guessing about fault. If you want help dealing with insurance and paperwork, we can step in and guide you.
Should I talk to the insurance company before calling a lawyer?
You can, but be careful—insurance companies often move fast and may try to minimize what they pay. We’re here to protect you and handle communications so you can focus on recovery.
What kinds of personal injury cases do you take?
Our firm handles cases like car accidents, truck/commercial vehicle accidents, motorcycle wrecks, slip and falls/premises liability, dog bites/animal attacks, and wrongful death claims.
What damages can I recover in a personal injury case?
Every case is different, but claims often involve things like medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We’ll walk you through what may apply based on your situation.
I got hurt at work—can you help with workers’ comp?
Yes. We help injured Kentucky workers pursue the benefits they’re entitled to and guide them through the workers’ compensation process.
What if my workers’ comp claim was denied (or my employer is giving me the runaround)?
We assist with filing claims when an employer refuses to cooperate and with fighting denials by insurance companies.
What can workers’ compensation cover?
Workers’ comp is designed to cover things like medical treatment and lost income/wage benefits while you recover (when applicable).
Can you help if my Social Security Disability claim was denied?
Yes. Many people are denied initially, and we help with appeals and can represent you at a hearing when needed.
Do you help with the initial Social Security Disability application too?
Yes—our team can help file an initial application and work to avoid common mistakes that can slow things down or lead to denial.
What if I’m overwhelmed by paperwork and calls?
That’s exactly why we’re here. We aim for straightforward communication and handle the paperwork, calls, and case-related stress so you can focus on healing.
