Heres’s What We Do For You After A Car Accident
Our Approach To Proving Fault And Winning Full Compensation
When you hire our car accident attorneys, here is exactly how we fight for the compensation you deserve:
- Meet with you in person at our office or come to your location if you are unable to travel.
- Handle your property damage claim at no extra fee.
- Investigate. From day one, we work to preserve critical evidence — visiting the scene, interviewing eyewitnesses, consulting technical experts, securing police reports and key documents, and compiling all available photographs, video, and physical evidence.
- Open insurance claims. We file every applicable claim without delay, ensure PIP benefits are properly directed, and work with your health insurance provider to keep your treatment covered if PIP is not an option.
- Help you find quality doctors. We connect you with reputable physicians and maintain thorough records of your medical treatment and costs.
- Seek lifetime income. When catastrophic injuries change your life permanently, we pursue structured financial arrangements to provide lifetime support for you and your loved ones.
- Negotiate. Our sole loyalty is to the injured. We shield you from unfair insurance practices and push for the best possible outcome in your case.
Time is critical. Statutes of limitations set firm deadlines for car accident claims — let them expire and you may lose your right to compensation entirely. This is one of the most preventable reasons claims fail.
When an accident disrupts your life, Flora Templeton Stuart and her team are ready to step in. As a true community firm, we are deeply invested in the people we serve.

If you have been injured in a car accident, several forms of insurance may be available to compensate you:
- Personal Injury Protection: Kentucky designates the vehicle you were in as the primary carrier of PIP benefits. With minimum limits of $10,000, PIP covers medical treatment, income loss, home care, and a share of funeral costs. Our attorneys safeguard these benefits on your behalf. PIP is repaid by the at-fault party.
- Liability: A driver who causes your injuries is responsible through their liability coverage. Kentucky sets a minimum of $25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident, while commercial policies may carry limits well into the millions.
- Uninsured Motorist: When the responsible driver carried no insurance, you may still seek recovery through your own uninsured motorist policy.
- Underinsured Motorist: If the at-fault driver’s insurance is not enough to fully cover your injuries, underinsured motorist benefits can make up the difference.
Flora Templeton Stuart leaves no policy unexplored in pursuit of your maximum recovery.
Most car accident cases hinge on negligence — whether a driver failed to act with reasonable care. As Kentucky car crash lawyers, establishing negligence is essential before we can pursue a claim. We demonstrate four key elements:
- Duty of care: The responsible party was legally obligated to follow traffic laws and keep others safe.
- Breach of duty: That driver violated their obligation through careless or reckless behavior.
- Causation: Their conduct directly caused the collision and your resulting injuries.
- Damages: You suffered documented harm — including property damage and pain and suffering — as a result of their negligence.
We compile police reports, eyewitness accounts, and surveillance footage to build the strongest possible case.
Kentucky’s “no-fault” insurance framework requires every driver to maintain at least $10,000 in PIP insurance. Under this system, PIP covers your medical costs and lost wages without regard to fault. Kentucky law also allows accident victims to opt out of the no-fault system and file directly against the at-fault driver, potentially resulting in a higher recovery.
Statute of Limitations in Kentucky and Tennessee
Car accident claims are subject to strict filing deadlines. Kentucky law gives victims two years from the accident date to bring a lawsuit, with the potential to extend that period when PIP benefits remain active, as per Ky. Rev. Stat. § 304.39-230(6). Tennessee allows only one year to file. In both states, the limitations period for minors begins at age 18. Wrongful Death cases fall under KRS 413.140.
