Serious Crash, “Normal” Imaging: Building Neck/Back/TBI Claims Without a “Smoking Gun”
A lot of people are told, “Your CT/MRI looks normal—so you’re fine.” But normal imaging doesn’t mean you weren’t seriously hurt. Concussions (mTBI) frequently have normal CT/MRI; many painful neck/back injuries don’t show a single “smoking gun” on scans, especially...
Kentucky Survival Actions vs. Wrongful Death: What Goes in Each Claim
When a loved one dies because of someone else’s negligence, Kentucky law allows two different civil claims to move forward—often at the same time: a Wrongful Death claim (for the benefit of the family; filed by the estate’s Personal Representative), and a Survival...

Hours-of-Service, ELDs, and Cell-Phone Rules: How Violations Prove Negligence
In a serious Kentucky truck crash, the story isn’t just “who hit whom.” It’s why it happened. Three rule sets often answer that: Hours-of-Service (HOS) limits, Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) that record them, and federal bans on texting/hand-held phones. When...
Spoliation Letters in Kentucky Truck Cases: What We Send in Week One
When a tractor-trailer or delivery truck causes a serious crash, the most important evidence can vanish fast—overwritten dashcam clips, telematics snapshots that rotate out, driver texts deleted when a phone is “replaced,” even vehicles repaired before anyone measures...
Missed Work After a Serious Car or Truck Accident: PIP Wage Loss vs. Tort Wage Loss (With Proof Examples)
If a crash takes you off the job—even for a few weeks—the lost income can be brutal. In Kentucky, money for missed work can come from two lanes: PIP wage loss (no-fault) under the MVRA—fast, short-term help from your own policy; and Tort wage loss (and...
