Wrongful Death

The death of a loved one is overwhelming and devastating for the family left behind, and the knowledge that the death was the direct result of someone else’s negligent actions can make it that much more painful. The knowledge that what happened was preventable compounds the tragedy.

Premises Liability

Property owners have an obligation to ensure that their property is reasonably safe for legal visitors. In legal terms, this is known as a “Duty of Care.” When a property owner violates this duty of care, they can be held liable for any injuries that occur on their property. This legal concept is known as “\Premises Liability.” If you have been injured due to an unsafe condition on a public or private property, you may be entitled to compensation from that property’s owner.

Dog Bite

As per the American Pets Products Association, about 57 million dogs are part of American families. Dogs can be unpredictable and bite though, and some can inflict incredible damage when they attack. Bite injuries can vary widely in severity, from puncture wounds to crushed muscles, bones, and nerves. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, about 66% of all dog bite victims are children. They’re particularly vulnerable to dog bite injuries given their height and sensitive skin. As such, the Commonwealth of Kentucky has laws that operate in a dog bite victim’s favor that place liability squarely on a dog owner’s shoulders.

Nursing Home Abuse

Nursing homes should be a safe place where the elderly and those who cannot take care of themselves completely are cared for and nurtured as needed. Most nursing home workers are compassionate and spend dozens of hours every week looking after those who need to be cared for. Tragically, in some instances, people take advantage of the trust offered them and abuse those who are placed in their care.
