Last updated
- Statute of limitations
- 1 year on most PI under KRS 413.140 (one of the shortest US clocks, equal to Tennessee and Louisiana). Motor vehicle accident files extended to 2 years from the accident or from the date of the last basic reparation benefits (PIP) payment under KRS 304.39-230(6)
- Comparative fault
- Pure comparative fault under KRS 411.182 (codifying Hilen v. Hays, 673 S.W.2d 713 (Ky. 1984)). Recovery permitted at any plaintiff fault percentage; damages reduced proportionally. One of only ~12 pure-comparative US states
- Distinctive
- Kentucky Constitution § 54 prohibits the General Assembly from limiting damages for injuries resulting in death or for injuries to person or property. One of the strongest constitutional anti-cap provisions in the US. KMVRA (Kentucky Motor Vehicle Reparations Act, KRS 304.39 et seq.) is a no-fault statute with $10,000 in basic reparation benefits and a tort threshold under KRS 304.39-060: $1,000 in medical, broken bone, permanent injury, permanent disfigurement, or death. KRS 258.235 imposes strict liability for dog bites

Why Kentucky Premises & PI Files Need Fast Intake
Kentucky is a 4.6-million-resident state with one of the most plaintiff-favorable substantive law profiles in the country: pure comparative fault (Hilen v. Hays 1984; KRS 411.182), constitutional uncapped damages (Kentucky Constitution § 54), and a strict-liability dog statute (KRS 258.235). The catch: Kentucky has the SHORTEST general PI SOL in the country at 1 year (KRS 413.140), tied with Tennessee and Louisiana. MVA files get a 2-year extension under KRS 304.39-230(6), but premises, slip-and-fall, dog bite, and other non-MVA files run on the harsh 1-year clock. That makes fast intake critical: missing the 1-year deadline is the most common procedural trap on Kentucky non-MVA PI files. We flag every premises lead for accelerated routing.
Real Search Intent
Every lead actively typed a legal-intent query into Google. High-intent search converts 15% to 30% for most PI firms, versus 1% to 3% for social-media-sourced leads.
Exclusive, 1 Firm Per Lead
Never shared. Aggregators sell the same lead to 3 to 5 firms simultaneously, dividing your conversion rate by the same factor. Ours go to one firm only, period.
Pre-Screened
Injured. Unrepresented. Pure comparative keeps borderline-fault in scope. Premises files flagged for the 1-year SOL; MVA files for the 2-year clock.
Coverage
Kentucky Case Types We Generate
Premises liability and slip and fall are our headline category, with seasonal Kentucky winter ice/snow surge November through March.
Slip & Fall / Premises Liability
Headline category. Avg case value: $20K to $150K (severe: $400K+)
Big-box and grocery (Walmart, Target, Kroger, Costco, Meijer), restaurant, hotel, parking lot, apartment, and Kentucky winter ice/snow files. Pure comparative fault means open-and-obvious is fault allocation, not a categorical bar. KY Constitution § 54 prohibits damages caps. CRITICAL: 1-year general PI SOL means premises files require fast intake.
Car Accident (Auto / MVA)
Avg case value: $20K to $150K+ (above $1K threshold)
The largest-volume KY PI category. KMVRA no-fault state with $1K medical / serious-injury threshold. MVA files get a 2-year SOL extension under KRS 304.39-230(6). Dedicated state page with threshold-aware screening.
Kentucky deep dive
Truck & 18-Wheeler
Avg case value: $100K to $5M+
I-65, I-71, I-64, I-75 carry heavy commercial freight through Kentucky. Federal motor carrier violations and equipment defects support upper-tier values. Louisville and the NKY / Cincinnati corridor are the highest-volume KY trucking venues.
Wrongful Death
Avg case value: $250K to $5M+
1-year SOL from qualifying for personal representative under KRS 413.180. KY Constitution § 54 prohibits any damages cap. Substantial WD verdicts when liability is well-developed.
Motorcycle
Avg case value: $25K to $250K+
Higher injury severity than standard MVA. Kentucky requires helmets only for riders under 21 (KRS 189.285). Pure comparative fault preserves recovery even with significant rider fault allocation.
Rideshare (Uber / Lyft)
Avg case value: $20K to $100K+
TNC platform $1M coverage in Period 2 and 3. Growing in Louisville, Lexington, and the NKY / Cincinnati corridor.
Dog Bite
Avg case value: $20K to $75K
Strict liability under KRS 258.235. No prior-viciousness or owner-knowledge requirement. Provocation and trespass defenses survive. Among the more plaintiff-friendly dog-bite regimes in the US. 1-year SOL applies.
Workplace & Construction
Avg case value: $50K to $1M+
Third-party negligence claims beyond Kentucky workers compensation. Construction, scaffold, and equipment files concentrate in Louisville, Lexington, and the NKY / Cincinnati corridor.
Pedestrian & Bicyclist
Avg case value: $50K to $500K+
Louisville and Lexington urban corridors drive volume. Pure comparative fault favors plaintiff outcomes on contested-fault pedestrian and crosswalk files. 1-year general PI SOL means fast intake is critical.
We focus on cases firms actually want to buy. Med-mal leads can be added on request, but they are not part of our headline coverage given the 1-year SOL with 5-year repose.

Six- to seven-figure
Premises / Slip and Fall
KY Premises & Slip-and-Fall Resolutions
Kentucky big-box, grocery, hotel, parking lot, and apartment slip-and-fall files routinely resolve in the high-five-figure to mid-six-figure range when surveillance preservation, prior-complaint discovery, and incident-report status are well-developed AND the 1-year SOL is respected.
Multi-million

2-yr clock
Auto
MVA Threshold-Cleared Files (KMVRA)
Kentucky's 2-year MVA SOL extension under KRS 304.39-230(6) is critical: most KY MVA files would otherwise be barred under the harsh 1-year general PI clock. Threshold context ($1K medical or serious injury under § 304.39-060) is flagged on every KY auto lead.
