How does a Richmond Personal Injury Attorney Help?
Hiring our legal team can help you feel confident about the outcome of your claim. We focus on listening to your concerns and providing initial advice with a free consultation. Depending on your situation, we may:
Identify the Liable Party
We take steps to find the party responsible for your injury and to collect evidence to show their negligence caused your injuries and financial losses. We have a range of investigative techniques we use to build personal injury claims.
Our team may speak with witnesses, visit the scene of the accident, and look for video or photo evidence. Sometimes, we work with experts who can provide more information about your claim.
Track All Your Losses
Your Richmond personal injury attorney can review all the losses caused by your accident. We collect documentation that shows the extent of your expenses so we can help you pursue fair compensation.
Discuss Options to Resolve Your Claim
Note that Kentucky’s no-fault law means that you must incur a minimum of $1,000 in medical expenses, or otherwise have serious injuries, before you can seek legal action. However, you and your passengers will each have at least $10,000 for medical bills, lost wages and other expenses, regardless of fault.
Wrongful death accidents may also qualify for a lawsuit. Your attorney can review your situation and help you determine if you qualify for a lawsuit or if pursuing a settlement with insurance agents would serve you better.
What Compensation do You Get for an Accident?
You may have a chance to secure financial damages to address all losses you sustained in an accident. A law firm specializing in personal injury claims may help if you need monetary coverage for your medical expenses, including:
- Emergency medical care
- Ride in an ambulance
- Hospitalization, medical tests, and all procedures
- Outpatient care and rehabilitation
- Medications
We also focus on your wages lost if you took time off from work and any property damage caused by an accident. In some cases, you may get non-economic losses, including funds to cover your pain, suffering, and mental anguish.

What do We Charge for Personal Injury Cases?
Our team uses contingency pricing when we handle personal injury claims. Therefore, we only take payment for legal fees after resolving the claim for our client.
This pricing system means we receive a percentage of your final compensation for our work on your claim. The costs for taking on a personal injury claim, therefore, vary on a case-by-case basis.
How Long do You Have to File a Personal Injury Claim?
You must file your personal injury claim before Kentucky’s statute of limitations runs out. The state gives many people a year after an accident to move forward with a legal claim. However, the state has a two-year statute of limitations for motor vehicle collisions.
Waiting too long to file a claim allows the court to throw out your case, preventing you from seeking compensation. You can find out more about your specific deadline by contacting our law firm.
How Long do You Have to Wait to Get Compensation?
Once you contact a lawyer and file your claim, our firm will work aggressively to resolve your claim. However, the exact time to secure compensation for your losses can vary based on possible complicating factors.
