Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Do I Have To File a Personal Injury Claim in Kentucky?
For most personal injury cases, such as slip and falls or other negligence-based injuries, you have one year from the date the injury occurred to file a lawsuit. However, some exceptions apply, including the following:
- Car accidents – You must file your lawsuit within two years from the date of the injury or the date of the last personal injury protection payment, whichever is later.
- Medical malpractice – The statute of limitations is one year from the date you discovered or reasonably should have discovered the injury, and no more than five years from the date the alleged negligent act occurred.
- Wrongful death – Generally, one year from the date a personal representative is appointed for the estate (with specific timing rules if the representative isn’t appointed immediately).
Will I Have To Go to Court?
While most cases settle outside of court through insurance negotiations, our team will not hesitate to take your claim to court if necessary to secure full compensation.
What if I Were Partially at Fault?
Kentucky follows pure comparative negligence. You can recover damages even if you were mostly at fault—your award is reduced by your percentage of fault.
How Much Is My Case Worth?
The worth of your case is dependent on the extent of your damages, percentage of fault, insurance policy limits, and the long-term impact of your injuries. Our Louisville attorneys can review the details of your personal injury case and determine how much compensation you are entitled to.
What Damages Can I Recover?
For a personal injury case in Louisville, Kentucky, our lawyers could help you recover several forms of compensation, including:
- Pain and suffering
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Lost earning capacity
- Property damage, such as your vehicle or other personal property
- Out-of-pocket expenses
