Last updated on June 11, 2025

Common Types Of Car Wrecks We Handle Across Kentucky
Below is a quick breakdown of some of the most common types of accidents we see:
- Rear-end collisions: Often caused by distracted driving or sudden stops, rear-end wrecks may seem simple, but Kentucky law still requires proof of fault.
- Head-on crashes: These are some of the most devastating collisions. Victims face long recoveries and proving liability is critical to getting proper compensation.
- Side-impact (T-bone) accidents: These often happen at intersections. Failing to yield or ignoring traffic signals can lead to serious injuries, especially on the side of a
- Multivehicle pileups: In chain-reaction crashes, sorting out liability is not easy. More drivers mean more insurance companies and more chances for them to deny claims.
No matter how your wreck happened, one thing is clear: Kentucky law gives you a right to pursue financial relief. But do not leave your claim in the hands of a lawyer unfamiliar with the courts or insurance company tactics. We know the roads, the rules and how to push back when insurers try to downplay your injuries.
