If you don’t see your accident type listed above, that doesn’t mean you don’t have a claim.

What Do Personal Injury Lawyers Do?

Louisville personal injury cases can be highly complex and nearly impossible for an injury victim to handle without the help of a personal injury attorney. Personal injury law exists to make sure that victims aren’t left to suffer the financial consequences of another party’s wrongdoing.

If, for example, medical malpractice leaves you with physical impairment and ongoing medical expenses, an injury attorney can help you hold the negligent medical professional liable. By filing a claim against the at-fault party, you can obtain the financial compensation you need to cover your losses. At the same time, you can help ensure that the same negligence doesn’t injure another person.

Your Louisville personal injury attorney will help you by:

Analyzing the causes of your accident and determining liability
Obtaining evidence to support your case, including police reports, photos, medical records, eyewitness accounts, and expert witness testimonies
Properly filing required forms and documents within all mandatory deadlines
Communicating and negotiating with insurance carriers to obtain maximum compensation
Representing you in court if your case needs to go to trial

What Are the Most Common Injuries in a Personal Injury Case?

Personal injuries can take on many forms. Depending on the type of accident you suffered, you may have temporary injuries or permanent disability. In some cases⁠, such as birth injuries, one act of negligence can completely change a person’s future.

Clients often come to us after they have suffered one or more of the following serious injuries:

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
Spinal cord injuries
Paralysis or loss of mobility
Internal organ damage
Broken bones
Severe lacerations
Amputation or loss of limb
Disfigurement and scarring
Permanent physical or cognitive impairment
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other psychological trauma

Understanding How a Louisville Personal Injury Claim Works

Not every personal injury victim knows what to expect when they begin to seek recovery in a personal injury case. While no two Louisville personal injury cases are alike, there is a standard process you can be prepared to work through with the help of your personal injury attorney.

After an accident, injured victims can expect to follow these steps:

Seek Medical Treatment

Seeking medical attention as soon as possible is critical. Even if you don’t feel pain right away, you could have hidden injuries. This first step is important to your health, but it is also a key component of your personal injury case. Your medical records will prove the severity of your injuries and demonstrate the direct link between the accident and injuries.

Contact a Personal Injury Lawyer

After you’ve seen a doctor, it’s time to schedule a consultation with a personal injury lawyer. The sooner you do so, the better your chances will be of recovering full and fair compensation.

Investigate Liability

Your personal injury attorney will begin investigating your accident to determine liability. Personal injury victims may think they know the full cause of their injuries and who is liable, but there may be other issues at play. For example, an injured party may believe a doctor acted negligently when, in fact, defective medical devices were a factor. It takes an experienced legal team to uncover the way faulty medical devices contributed to the injury incident.

Gather Evidence

Insurance carriers will demand compelling evidence that your injuries occurred as you say they did. Any seemingly insignificant detail may be scrutinized in an attempt to undervalue or deny your claim. Your Louisville personal injury attorney may use the following types of evidence to build your claim:

Photos of the accident scene
Surveillance video or dashcam footage
Police reports
Eyewitness accounts
Expert witness testimony
Proof of the injuries you sustained

Calculate Compensation

There are many ways a person’s life is impacted by a serious injury, and your amount of compensation should accurately reflect that. Some insurance carriers only look at the immediate cost of the injury (such as your trip to the emergency room), but at our law firm, we know the cost of negligence lasts much longer. When we calculate compensation, we give your claim maximum value. This may include compensation for:

Medical bills now and in the future
Rehabilitation and therapy costs
Prescription medications
Lost income
Loss of future income after diminished earning capacity

Obtain a Settlement or Verdict

In most situations, a personal injury case will be able to settle out of court. But if a settlement can’t be reached, it may be best to take your case to trial. The Louisville personal injury lawyers from Thomas Law Offices have years of experience litigating in Kentucky courts. We are prepared to advocate for you before a judge and jury if that is the best way to ensure maximum compensation for your losses.

How To Prove Negligence in a Personal Injury Case

For your case to be successful, you and your law firm will need to prove that negligence occurred. The concept of negligence involves four elements: duty of care, breach, causation, and damages.

Duty of Care

Duty of care refers to the care one person owes another in given circumstances. For example, drivers owe others on the road a duty of care to abide by traffic laws and operate their vehicles safely. Doctors similarly owe each patient a standard of care that must be met.

Breach of Duty

This means that a person or other entity failed to uphold the duty of care they owed you. In the example of a car accident, the other driver may have breached a duty of care by texting and driving. In the example of medical malpractice, a nurse may have breached a duty of care by failing to check your medical chart before administering medication.

Causation

Proving causation involves connecting your injuries to the accident. You’ll have to prove to the insurance company that you’re seeking compensation for new injuries—not a preexisting condition. Your lawyer will use your medical records to prove your injuries were a direct result of someone else’s negligence.

Damages

Damages refers to the losses you incurred because of the accident. Your lawyer will need to prove that your injury directly resulted in damages, such as medical costs or loss of income. Your compensation will be dependent on the extent of your losses.

During your initial free case evaluation at our law firm, we will discuss how we can prove each of these elements, as well as the compensation to which you are entitled. We take most cases on a contingency fee basis, so you don’t have to worry about any fees unless you win.

What Compensation Are Injury Victims Entitled To Receive?

There are three types of damages your Louisville personal injury attorneys may advise you to seek: economic damages, noneconomic damages, and punitive damages.

Economic Damages

This refers to the calculable expenses associated with your accident. An injury victim may have economic damages such as medical expenses, property damage, transportation and childcare costs, and lost wages and benefits. The attorneys at our law firm are careful to calculate every expense you incurred due to someone else’s careless or negligent actions.

Noneconomic Damages

These are the losses without a definitive number attached. As such, noneconomic damages are more difficult to calculate. For example, while the cost of repairing your vehicle after a car accident is clear, the amount you lost through pain and suffering is less tangible. It’s important to work with a legal team experienced in this area of the law. It may be the case that you are eligible to pursue noneconomic damages such as:

Pain and suffering
Emotional and mental anguish
Loss of enjoyment of life
Disability or disfigurement
Loss of companionship or loss of consortium (in wrongful death cases)

Punitive Damages

These damages are meant to punish gross or willful negligence. Punitive damages are relatively rare in injury claims but may apply if particularly egregious actions led to your injuries. If drunk driving caused your car accident, for example, your attorney may recommend you pursue punitive damages in addition to compensatory damages.

Personal Injury Laws in Kentucky

Your claim will be subject to state and federal laws, so your attorney will need to know which laws apply to your case. In Louisville, KY, plaintiffs need to consider the comparative fault rule and the statute of limitations that applies.

Comparative Fault

Our state follows pure comparative negligence laws. Under this rule, Kentucky recognizes that multiple parties can be at fault for an accident. If the injury victim filing the claim is found partially responsible for what happened, their compensation can be reduced by their percentage of fault.

Statutes of Limitations

Your injury claim must be filed within a specific time limit—referred to as a statute of limitations. In Kentucky, most personal injury claims are subject to a one-year deadline. In most cases, the timer starts on the date of the accident. However, in some cases, the date may start when the full extent of the injuries is discovered. Your lawyer will be able to determine just how long you have to file your claim. If you fail to meet the deadline, the court will likely dismiss your claim, and you’ll be ineligible for compensation.

Your legal matter is in good hands at our law firm. Our top Louisville attorneys take cases on a contingency fee basis, so we don't win unless you do. Call today for a free consultation.

Tips To Maximize Your Personal Injury Compensation

There are a few steps to take to avoid putting your personal injury claim in jeopardy. The Louisville personal injury attorneys from Thomas Law Offices offer the following tips to maximize your chances of a successful case outcome:

Document Your Injuries and Medical Care

While we mentioned the importance of medical attention above, we’ll stress it again here. Make sure you see a doctor after your accident. This is the only way your injuries will be officially documented. If you don’t see a doctor, you won’t have proof of injury.

Take Photos of the Accident Scene

If possible, preserve evidence from your accident. The best way to do this is by taking photographs or videos—especially after an auto accident or slip and fall incident. Write down what you remember and record anything you think is important. Your lawyer will be able to use this information to support your claim.

Be Careful When Speaking With Insurance Adjusters

Insurance carriers are notorious for sending adjusters to question accident victims immediately after the injury. Be careful that an off-handed remark isn’t used against you. Even saying “I’m fine” after an accident may be used as proof that you’re not seriously injured. Be honest but brief in your answers, and avoid offering too much information. Remember that it’s always better to say you’d like to speak to your lawyer if something feels off.

Avoid Social Media

It’s best to stay off social media. While we understand you want to let everyone you care about know you are okay, posting anything online could risk your chances of a successful claim if insurance companies think your injuries aren’t as severe as you reported.

The Benefits of Working With a Personal Injury Attorney

Depending on the circumstances, you may think about handling your legal matters on your own. It’s important to understand why working with an attorney is so beneficial—especially when you need the compensation to fully recover from your physical injuries and financial losses.

The Resources You Need To Make Your Claim Successful

Your personal injury lawyer will thoroughly investigate your claim and collect the evidence needed to prove negligence. Much of this evidence may be very difficult to obtain on your own. Your case may also benefit from an expert medical witness who can speak to the extent and impact of your injury. Your attorney will know who to get in touch with to ensure your injuries are well explained.

Protection From Insurance Adjuster Tactics

If you’re dealing with an insurer, it’s likely the adjuster assigned to your case will try to reduce the amount of compensation you’re owed. Remember that the adjuster’s job is to protect their company’s bottom line—not ensure you receive fair compensation. Our qualified legal representatives will make sure an insurance company doesn’t cheat you out of what you are legally owed.

Contact a Louisville Personal Injury Lawyer Who Cares

It only takes seconds for a person’s life to be completely upended because of someone else’s negligence. We work hard to bring justice to tragic situations like these. It’s our goal to make sure you are compensated for what was taken from you.

While visiting Kentucky with friends for a week of deer hunting I visited a local restaurant. The floor was mopped with no signs placed to warn customers. When my rubber hunting boots hit the wet floor I immediately went down slamming the back of my head into the ceramic tile floor. I suffered a concussion and damage to some teeth from the impact. I was referred to Attorney Kevin Weis who responded immediately, took all my information, and accepted my case. He along with his staff communicated regularly with me informing me on what I needed to provide and what was taking place in the process. Due to his expertise my case was settled out of court with all my medical bills covered and compensation for myself. I am extremely pleased with his service and highly recommend him and his firm if you are in need for a high quality and professional law firm.Dan LivingstonPensacola, Florida

Louis Schneider and the team at Thomas Law Offices represented us well over the past 18 months, in reaching a settlement on our auto accident. In late 2019, another driver ran a red light and t-boned my car, injuring me and totaling my vehicle. Louie did a nice job of reaching settlements on both the car and later on our medical claims to make sure we came out whole. Louie addressed our concerns and was very responsive to our requests or questions, and he was a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend Thomas Law Office if you find yourself in a similar situation.

Lindsy Lopez – RecommendationI have decades of experience working in insurance; however, after being injured in an auto accident, I quickly realized I needed help to sort through the legal, medical, and financial confusion. After researching the attorneys and law firms in my area, I reached out to Lindsy Lopez because of her academic and professional experience. I was also impressed with her community education and advocacy and that of the Thomas Law firm with whom she is associated. Lindsy is easy to talk to, a good listener, explained the law in straightforward language, and outlined the steps we needed to take. Questions and communication were encouraged, and the response from Lindsy was prompt and spot-on. She informed, supported, and guided me through an almost two-year process to a successful outcome. I wholeheartedly recommend Lindsy Lopez if you find yourself in need of a hardworking and committed advocate.

This was my first time personally working with a lawyer, and Louie was incredible in providing facts and a well-rounded perspective regarding this process. He helped relieve a lot of the anxiety I suffered as a result of my car accident and allowed me to make informed decisions. He was easily accessible via email and always willing to talk over the phone to check-in. His paralegal Charles was so attentive and quick on any clarification I had or questions that needed a timely response. I'm so glad Louie was recommended to me and I'm happy to continue recommending him to anyone in need.

When I was hit by a tractor trailer this year I had no idea how to navigate the mess of insurance adjusters, medical bills, claims, and the loss I had in missing work. It was a scary and vulnerable time to realize I just lost my means to work and the ability to provide for my family. Kevin Weis guided me through the confusing process and kept me informed in a way I could understand. His knowledge of the in and outs of personal injury claims was so extensive he actually made the whole process quite simple for me. Now, months later, I am very happy with our end result and feel that I have been made completely whole from the accident. He went above and beyond to make sure I received everything I owed for medical care, wage loss, and pain and suffering. In the future I will send all my family’s legal business to him and recommend him highly to anyone who needs a knowledgeable attorney to fight for them when they feel the hurt and loss of an accident.

I had a big box store put the wrong size tires on my car and as a result, I had an non-injury accident.Other Louisville law firms did not want my case as it was not a huge money maker. I only wanted my almost totaled car fixed. Lou Snyder of Thomas Law Firm helped me settle out of court with that big box store (can’t say the name, but you would know it). I am thrilled he helped me recoup my loss.

Kevin Jones

Mike is the kind of lawyer other lawyers go to when they have questions about how to do something right. He is a subject matter expert and frequently teaches other lawyers how to improve their practices and get better results for their clients. I know, because I'm one of those lawyers that look up to Mike. You're in good hands with Mike.

Wonderful team that helped so much after my auto accident. My case was a little more complicated since it involved my work but they were so helpful in explaining the process and making sure everything was addressed with all parties involved. I would have been lost trying to deal with it on my own.

We initially hired an attorney in FL where we live but since the accident happened in KY, our FL attorney referred us to the Thomas Law Firm and I'm so glad they did. The experience was wonderful, they were very responsive to all our calls and emails and Lindsy has always advised us openly about our options. The case was rather unique and complicated but they were able to get us a great settlement as they fought very hard for us. They even got us additional benefits in addition to the settlement with the insurance company. I highly recommend them and wouldn't look further.

The hard work and dedication from Lindsay Cordes, Tad Thomas, and the entire team was able to receive a settlement in my TITLE IX LAWSUIT. (Caps lock for emphasis, trust me, it's needed.)Lindsay and Tad were the fiercest of legal defense as we fought stiff odds, the kindest of spirits as I cried from recounting trauma, the most reliable of sources when I found myself lost in legality, and the most effective of lawyers for winning this case! Title IX is a volatile field and campus rape a traumatic matter. Lindsay, Tad, and Thomas Law Offices navigated this battlefield of an issue with the utmost kindness, tenacity, compassion, reliability, and genuine investment in me not as a client, but as a person. I wouldn't wish anything less for your legal needs!

Thomas Law Office was exceptional in handing my daughters car accident. They went above and beyond working with all the medical bills to get them lowered and with the insurance company to get us the best possible settlement w/o having to file suit. They were quick to always answering emails and phone calls. They even helped with answering questions we had with other issues that didn't involve our current case. They were great to work with. I highly recommend them and their services.

Tad and his team where an absolute blessing in my time of need and I could not have done it without them. Any questions I had where always answered in a timely manner and they worked diligently to get me everything I deserved and that takes time so don't expect anything to happen overnight.
