- Traffic ViolationsThe consequences for driving under the influence will depend on (a) whether the individual has any prior offenses; (b) whether the driver is under the age 21; and (c) whether any aggravating circumstances, such as excessive speeding, are involved. Drunk drivers generally face criminal sanctions that include jail, fines, and suspension of their driving privileges.

- HomicideSometimes a defendant’s actions are so egregious that the court finds it necessary to punish that person for their actions. Punitive damages are also used to deter other people from repeating the same actions. These damages are added to your final judgment. Cases where punitive damages may apply include drunk driving, road rage, and homicide.
- Hit and RunHit-and-Run Accident: There are a number of reasons why drivers flee after an accident including driving without insurance or engaging in illegal behavior. If you were involved in a hit-and-run, document as much information as possible and speak with potential witnesses. If the at-fault driver is found, you may be able to pursue both criminal and civil charges.
- Premises LiabilityPremises liability cases revolve around injuries and accidents that occur on another party’s property. Kentucky law requires property owners to maintain a safe environment for visitors and inform them of any known hazards on the property. Visitors are at risk for severe accidents and injuries when property owners fail to maintain their premises. Kentucky law entitles those who have sustained injuries as a consequence of a property owner’s negligence or intentional harm to seek compensation for damages in civil court. Accident victims shouldn’t have to suffer the financial impact of a serious injury when a negligent property owner causes them harm.
- Property DamageAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 10,000 people die each year in alcohol-impaired driving accidents, a number that generally accounts for more than 25% of the country’s annual traffic-related deaths. Here in Kentucky, in 2018, there were 4,736 collisions that involved alcohol, resulting in 124 deaths, 1,5885 injuries, and 3,038 incidents of property damage. While the numbers vary from year to year, the Bluegrass State has sadly not seen any consistent decreases in alcohol related collisions.
