Client Testimonials
Allen and two of his daughters were driving East along KY HWY 496 when they came upon a logging truck blocking the East bound lane. With no time to react. Allen collided with the truck and despite wearing his seatbelt, the injuries to his head and face proved fatal. The two girls were injured in the crash, but both miraculously lived after being immediately taken to TJ Samson Hospital.
When our client, Allen’s wife, reach out, we began working on the case immediately. ur team of investigators soon discovered that the driver of the logging truck had numerous citations on the vehicle, and was clearly at fault. After intense litigation with the insurance company of the logging truck driver, we were able to fight on behalf of our client to obtain a $1.5 million dollar settlement. We helped her and their daughters establish consortium claims to hopefully help with the unfortunate loss of a husband and father.

Metcalfe County Car Accident Statistics
From 2021 to 2022, Metcalfe county has had a positive trend in car accident reports, with the total number of accidents going down over 18% with 271 in 2021 and 232 in 2022. But while the total number of accidents has gone down, the severity of accidents has unfortunately risen based on data:
- Fatal Accidents – 0 to 5
- Non- Fatal Injuries – 58 to 37
- Persons Killed – 0 to 6
These results show driver safety has risen, hence the drop in accidents, but Metcalfe County drivers must make sure they are wearing their seatbelts and abiding by traffic laws in order to minimize the damage when an accident inevitably occurs.

Injuries sustained in a car collision may be covered by several types of insurance:
- Personal Injury Protection: In Kentucky, the vehicle you were traveling in carries the primary PIP coverage. PIP has a minimum limit of $10,000 and pays for medical bills, lost wages, home care services, and a portion of funeral costs. Our legal team works to protect these benefits so they are available when you need them. The at-fault party ultimately repays PIP.
- Liability: The driver whose negligence caused your injuries pays through their liability policy. Kentucky law mandates minimum coverage of $25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident, with commercial policies potentially offering far more.
- Uninsured Motorist: If the at-fault driver had no insurance, your own uninsured motorist policy may be used to recover compensation.
- Underinsured Motorist: When the at-fault driver’s insurance is not adequate to cover your losses, underinsured motorist benefits provide an additional source of recovery.
Flora Templeton Stuart ensures every applicable policy is identified and pursued.
Negligence in car accidents typically refers to a driver’s failure to meet the standard of reasonable care required on public roads. As Kentucky car crash lawyers, we must establish each element of negligence before building a legal case against the at-fault party:
- Duty of care: The at-fault party had a duty to act safely and comply with all traffic laws.
- Breach of duty: The at-fault party violated that duty by acting negligently or recklessly.
- Causation: Their actions or failure to act directly resulted in the accident and your injuries.
- Damages: You suffered quantifiable damages — including property loss, pain, and emotional suffering — because of their negligence.
Our team supports these elements with evidence from police reports, witness statements, and surveillance recordings.
Kentucky’s “no-fault” car insurance laws require drivers to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) with minimum limits of $10,000. Regardless of fault, PIP covers medical expenses and lost wages following a collision. Kentuckians who have been injured also have the option to step outside the no-fault system and pursue a claim against the negligent driver, which could result in a more substantial recovery.
Statute of Limitations in Kentucky and Tennessee
very car accident claim is bound by a statute of limitations. In Kentucky, the deadline is two years from the date of the accident, with potential extension when PIP benefits are still being received, as per Ky. Rev. Stat. § 304.39-230(6). Tennessee limits this to one year from the crash date. For minors, the filing period begins on their 18th birthday. Wrongful Death statutes of limitations are governed by KRS 413.140.
