Award-Winning Personal Injury Law Firm Serving Louisville, KY
Every person in our society is under a duty to refrain from doing anything that will cause harm to others. This means that every person must consider the potential consequences of their actions and the possibility that their actions will cause harm to another person. When a person fails to take due care and their actions cause injury to another person, they can be held legally responsible for their actions. If you have been injured as a result of the actions of another person or entity, you may be entitled to secure compensation for the losses related to your injury.
We Handle All Types of Personal Injury Cases Throughout Kentucky
There are a wide range of cases where the victim is entitled to compensation. If another person’s actions have harmed you and you are not sure of your rights, you need an experienced Louisville personal injury lawyer who can advise you on your rights and your legal options.
- Since 1986, Dolt, Thompson, Shepherd, Conway & Stanton PSC has been protecting the rights of victims throughout Kentucky.
- Our Senior Partner, Tyler S. Thompson, is a member of the Inner Circle of Associates, an invitation-only group of the best plaintiff lawyers in the United States.
- We have recovered millions in jury verdicts for victims across Kentucky from responsible parties and their insurance companies.
Wrongdoers in our society can be held criminally or civilly liable for their actions. When a person commits a criminal offense, they are prosecuted by the state on behalf of the public. A criminal offense is not only an offense against the victim, but an offense against society, and the state has a duty to maintain law and order and deter others from committing similar offenses. When a person is convicted for a criminal offense, the punishment for their criminal act is their debt to society as a whole.
A civil offense, on the other hand, is prosecuted by the victim. The objective of a civil case is to financially compensate the victim for the harm that they suffered as a result of the wrongdoing. A victim may suffer financial losses from medical bills, past lost wages, future lost wages, or damaged property. A victim may also suffer non-tangible harm such as pain and suffering for which they can recover monetary compensation.

What Evidence Do I Need to File a Personal Injury Claim?
The evidence you need to file a personal injury claim also depends on the unique circumstances of your case. In motor vehicle accident cases, for example, the police report (or accident report), witness statements, and drivers’ phone records and receipts can be key evidence for pursuing fair compensation. In cases involving nursing home abuse, birth injuries, and other life-altering injuries caused by healthcare providers’ negligent medical care, medical records and expert reports can be key to convincing the at-fault party’s insurance company to settle. A Kentucky personal injury lawyer at our firm can gather evidence in support of your claim and then deal with the at-fault party’s insurance company on your behalf.
What Should I Do if I Think I Have a Personal Injury Claim?
If you think you have a personal injury claim for injuries sustained due to someone else’s negligence, you should seek medical attention promptly.
