God puts the right people in your life when you need them, and Ryan was that person for me. I was involved in an auto accident and had to go through surgery and extensive PT. Ryan had my best interest from the first minute, and then some. He had my back. He is relentless, protective, thorough and honest. His team was very attentive and always quick to respond. I was able to focus on my recovery, while they dealt with the legal. 10/10 recommend

Mr. Goff took my Civil case after hearing my plea. My fiancée passed away and a Civil Case was brought against me regarding the sale of “our” home. He is the Most zealous, informative attorney that I’ve ever met and he truly cares about his clients. He was there for me throughout the whole process. He made sure that I understood everything and was informed throughout the whole process. He absolutely knows his stuff, but doesn’t downplay anything. If there was something that he wasn’t sure about, he would research it. He pleaded my case and it resolved in both receiving a favorable decision (ending). He was there every step of the way. I would recommend him to any and all. My Attorney All The Way.
Thank You Chip for your understanding, perseverance, kindness and everything in between. But Most of All,
Your Kindness and Understanding!

Mr. Goff responded to my request for a lawyer. Although he was ultimately unable to take my case he spent almost an hour on the phone with me and gave me some helpful pointers with regard to my case. I was sorry I couldn't hire him as he had a very good demeanor, explained everything thoroughly, and answered all of my questions. Based on my conversation with him I would hire him to represent me if the circumstances were different.

I was referred to Chip for my accident by a family law attorney I was already working with on a different matter. He met with me 3 days after my accident and checked in with me regularly over the 18 months he worked on my case. He was always calm, caring and professional. Not only did he explain things very well and tell me what to expect next, he gave me realistic expectations about the outcome of my case. The results far surpassed what I had even hoped for and I couldn’t be happier or more appreciative of Chip and all of his hard work to get this case resolved in a timely manner with a maximum outcome!

Maria was an excellent negotiator in my case. She will be honest with you and let you know what is in your best interest and protect that. I came to her after making zero progress with a previous attorney. She came highly recommended to me and was a perfect fit for me and my case! She is very personable and gets the job done.

Maria handled a mediation for me. The other side was looking to go to court. Maria was able to negotiate going to mediation instead saving me $$$ and was able to get me what I wanted. Bottom line is, Maria Ante is a great attorney! You want her on your side!!!

Maria represented me on a personal injury case. I was in a significant amount of pain when I hired her and also was stressed out dealing with a very pushy insurance adjuster. She was very helpful during this difficult time in my life. It was quite a lengthy process from beginning to end... several years in fact. Maria was able to work on this case so I could focus on what was important to me, healing and recovering. Maria was great about updating me on the progress of my case throughout the entire process. We tried meditation first but we ended up taking it to trial. I was pleased with the outcome and Maria exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend her!

Mr Nighswander has represented me on four different occasions in a variety of matters. Each legal action was handled professionally with a minimum of my needing to be involved. I was kept advised each step of the way. All four actions were settled in my favor and only one of them had to go to court. The other three were settled in arbitration, which was suggested by Mr Nighswander, thereby saving me a good deal of money and not wasting the court's time. For me, Mr Nighswander did an exceptional job. I will continue to use his services when the need for legal representation arises.

Nick Nighswander is one of the hardest working attorneys. I highly recommend him.
I hired Nick to represent my father's estate when he died in a fire caused by a defective product. When the case concluded, it was reported as one of the largest personal injury settlements in KY at the time. I attribute this result to Nick's tenacity and work ethic.
If you want someone to fight for you, then hire Nick.

Mr. Nighswander was very efficient in handling my late husband's and my bankruptcy proceedings. Also, after my husband's death he was able to get my bankruptcy payments reduced since my income had been reduced, by half. I respected his efficiency in the handling of my late husband's probate proceedings. He is a very professional attorney but also showed compassion for us/me during our appointments with him. He updated my will, power of attorney and other legal matters. I have highly recommended his legal services to numerous friends.

Aaron made what was a difficult and stressful decision into a relatively easy process. It never felt like there was any judgment for the poor decisions that lead us to him. He was very helpful at every step, available for every phone call, and patient when we had all of the questions. I would not hesitate to suggest his services to anyone who may need them.

I can’t find any Attorney that represents tenants? Renters do not get any or equal representation in a court of law in America. The system is set up to support big corporate owners. I am a disabled combat veteran being denied a new lease by Parkland Place now called The Champion Club in Florence Kentucky because they raise their prices and no longer except HudVash or section 8 renters. It seems like they only rent to Somalians and Guatemalan refugees. The next flood of refugees will be from Ukraine and Russia, but we can’t even find housing for Americans these days. It’s a national emergency being ignored by our so-called leaders in government and corporate America…
I don’t mean any of this as a negative ding nor do I have any complaints about your office. I got your number on two separate calls from the attorney referral service after I told them what I needed an attorney for. My family has use your practice before and you did a great job. This is a national problem. I tried to make an appointment twice so you already have my contact info if u want to talk.

Talks a good game. But Marcus was late for the two court hearings he did attend. he didn’t get anything accomplished. He drug his feet on filing for 2 months. Then the last court date he didn’t bother to show up. Never in his office, no texts no calls nothing. took my money and ran. So I then had to spend thousands more to hire a proper attorney. he is a crook.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
