Personal Injury

Personal injury law is a very broad concept that simply refers to any legal action arising out of an injury to an individual. Therefore, Personal injury law includes anything from car accidents, to premises liability, to wrongful death.  Each of Pittenger Law Office practice areas, other than criminal law, involves personal injury.

That being said, personal injury law in Kentucky gives victims injured by others’ careless acts the right to seek compensation for their damages from the at-fault party. Damages can include medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses you may sustain as a result of your injuries.

When you are hurt because of negligence or intentional acts of another person or entity, obtaining compensation for your damages should be one of your top priorities. Generally, when another’s negligence or intentional acts caused you injury, you have the right to file a claim with that party’s liability insurance company and demand a payment for damages.

It is highly recommended to have Pittenger Law Office review your case, explain your options, ensure that your insurance company is not trying to take advantage of you, and help you take the necessary steps to file the claim or suit on your behalf.
