Client Testimonials
The Flora Templeton Stuart team fought to obtain a fair settlement for our client when a semi-truck ran a traffic light, hitting him and causing fractured legs.
Our law firm obtained $1.65 million for our client with all medical bills paid and lifetime income. We filed suit in court and fought the semi-truck company over a period of two years since they were denied liability. We obtained not only extensive expert testimony to prove the defendant ran the red light, but located witnesses who confirmed he was at fault. This was a typical case where a commercial trucking company tries to deny responsibility for their liability, but we obtained justice for our client.
What We Will Do For You in a Car Accident or Injury Claim
How We Establish Fault And Secure Your Compensation
Our car accident lawyers will take the following steps to help you obtain full and fair compensation for your injuries:
- Meet with you personally at our office, or travel directly to you when you are unable to come to us.
- Assist with your property damage claim at no additional cost.
- Investigate. We begin building your case immediately — preserving evidence, visiting the accident scene, consulting eyewitnesses and case experts, obtaining police reports and essential documents, and collecting photographs, video footage, and physical evidence.
- Open insurance claims. We promptly file all applicable claims, direct payment of PIP benefits, and coordinate with your health insurer to cover treatment if PIP is unavailable.
- Help you find quality doctors. We refer you to trusted physicians and track your medical records and expenses throughout your case.
- Seek lifetime income. For catastrophic injuries, we pursue long-term financial solutions to cover ongoing medical needs and support for you and your family.
- Negotiate. We work solely for the injured — never the insurance companies. We guard you against bad-faith tactics and relentlessly pursue the strongest settlement available.
Do not delay taking action. Statutes of limitations apply to every car accident claim. Missing those deadlines is one of the most common reasons valid claims fail to recover what they deserve.
After you or a loved one is hurt in an accident, Flora Templeton Stuart and her team are ready to help. We are a genuine local firm — committed to the communities we serve.

- Alcohol was a contributing factor in 14.2% of all Kentucky crashes in 2022, and drug-impaired driving contributed to 265 statewide fatalities that year, trends reflected in south-central Kentucky counties.
- Driver inattention is the leading cause of crashes across Kentucky, accounting for approximately 36% of all collisions — a factor that recurs in Allen County’s two-lane rural road crashes.

Multiple types of insurance may provide compensation when you are injured in a vehicle collision:
- Personal Injury Protection: In Kentucky, the vehicle you occupied is the primary source of PIP coverage. PIP carries minimum limits of $10,000 and covers medical bills, lost income, home care, and a portion of funeral expenses. Our attorneys protect these benefits to ensure your costs are covered. The at-fault party repays PIP.
- Liability: The at-fault driver’s liability policy compensates for injuries they cause. Kentucky’s minimum is $25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident; commercial policies can reach into the millions.
- Uninsured Motorist: If the at-fault driver had no insurance, you may recover through your own uninsured motorist coverage.
- Underinsured Motorist: If the at-fault driver’s coverage falls short of your damages, underinsured motorist benefits can bridge the gap. Flora Templeton Stuart pursues all available underinsured policies to maximize your recovery.
Car accident negligence centers on a driver’s failure to exercise reasonable care. As Kentucky car crash lawyers, we must establish the at-fault party’s negligence before taking legal action. We prove four elements:
- Duty of care: The at-fault party had a responsibility to keep you safe by following traffic laws.
- Breach of duty: They violated that duty through negligent conduct.
- Causation: Their actions or inactions directly caused your accident and injuries.
- Damages: You suffered real harm — including pain, suffering, and property damage — due to their negligence.
Our team builds your case with police reports, witness statements, and surveillance footage.
Kentucky operates under a “no-fault” insurance system requiring all drivers to carry a minimum of $10,000 in PIP coverage. PIP pays for medical expenses and lost wages regardless of who caused the crash. Accident victims may also opt out of the no-fault system to pursue a direct claim against the at-fault driver for greater compensation.
Statute of Limitations in Kentucky and Tennessee
Every car accident claim is subject to filing deadlines. In Kentucky, you have two years from the accident date to file, a period that may be extended when PIP benefits are being paid, as per Ky. Rev. Stat. § 304.39-230(6). In Tennessee, the deadline is one year. For minors, the clock begins at age 18. Wrongful Death claims are governed by KRS 413.140.
