Georgetown Car Accident Lawyers   

Truck Accidents · Motorcycle Crashes · Insurance Settlements

Your rights to financial compensation after a car accident or other motor vehicle accident in Kentucky depend partly on the type of car insurance you carry. It is important to seek legal advice after a car accident, to make sure you do everything possible to protect your rights and get fair compensation for property damage and injuries.

Kentucky is an "optional no fault" state. This means that you choose either the no-fault system or the traditional system when you purchase or renew your policy. In Kentucky, if you do not affirmatively request the traditional system, you will automatically receive the no-fault option as a default.

John E. Dutra and David E. Higdon are experienced personal injury lawyers in Georgetown who provide knowledgeable and practical legal representation to victims of car accidents and other types of motor vehicle accidents, including:

  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Semi-truck accidents
  • Bicycle accidents
  • ATV accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents

We work on a contingency fee basis in personal injury cases. This means that our clients do not pay attorneys' fees unless we win their cases. Contact our Georgetown personal injury attorneys to schedule an appointment. Call (502) 863-5515.

Types of Compensation After a Car Accident

Depending on the severity of the car accident and the type of insurance you and the other drivers carry, you may be able to get compensation for:

  • Medical expenses not covered by your health insurance
  • Lost wages due to time off work
  • Reimbursement for damage to your vehicle
  • Compensation for pain and suffering

Depending on the insurance coverage status of the drivers involved in the accident, financial assistance may come from one or more sources, including:

  • The at-fault driver's car insurance
  • Your own no-fault insurance
  • Your uninsured or underinsured motorist insurance coverage
  • An umbrella or homeowners' insurance policy held by the other driver

We will help you navigate the complicated world of insurance claims after a car accident, and we will do everything we can to ensure your settlement is fair.
