Personal Injury Attorney in Louisville
How May We Help You?
How Is Liability Determined in Kentucky?
One principle aspect of bringing a successful claim against a negligent person who harmed you is establishing liability. This means proving you are suffering because of reckless actions taken by the at-fault party.
To legally prove liability, you must establish the following:
- The other party owed you a duty of care, such as a dog owner restraining a dangerous animal or a person driving safely and following traffic laws
- The other person failed to fulfill their duty, such as letting a dangerous dog run free or violating traffic laws
- The failure of duty led directly to your injuries
- The injuries you sustained are significant and led to serious physical, financial, or emotional damage
Determining liability can be complicated, especially in certain cases, such as truck accidents, where multiple parties may be to blame. Contact our personal injury attorney immediately for help proving liability and recovering the full damages you are owed.

How Much Compensation Are My Injuries Worth?
