Louisville Personal Injury Lawyers

Louisville Personal Injury Lawyer

When you are dealing with a difficult situation, our attorneys are here to help, offering skilled representation and advice tailored to your circumstances.

At Haney Law, PLLC, we help people through some of the hardest moments of their lives. If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in an accident or harmed through someone else’s negligence, you deserve an advocate who knows what you’re going through and knows how to make things right. Based in Louisville, we’ve handled thousands of personal injury claims and recovered millions of dollars for our clients. We’re proud to offer the experience of a large firm with the personal attention of a small one because to us, your case isn’t just a file. It’s your future.

Our Louisville personal injury lawyers understand the physical, emotional, and financial challenges that follow a serious injury. You may be overwhelmed by medical bills, struggling to return to work, or uncertain about your legal rights. We’re here to take that burden off your shoulders and fight for the outcome you deserve. From your first call to the final resolution of your case, you’ll have a team that listens, cares, and works hard for results.

Why Choose Haney Law, PLLC?

Here at Haney Law, we bring a unique perspective to every case. Before dedicating his practice to helping injury victims, firm founder David Haney spent years defending personal injury claims on behalf of insurance companies and large corporations, including serving as a litigation manager for a national nursing home chain. Experiences like these give our firm a detailed understanding of how defense teams operate and where their strategies fall short. Today, we use that knowledge to build strong, strategic cases for plaintiffs, putting our clients in the best position to recover the compensation they deserve.

We don’t promise quick fixes or flashy outcomes. What we offer is thoughtful preparation, clear communication, and a commitment to doing what’s right for you, even when the road is long. Whether your case settles early or requires litigation, we are here to stand with you every step of the way.

Personal Injury Representation Rooted in Experience

Our focus at Haney Law is centered on helping people who have been seriously injured in a range of circumstances, including car accidents, trucking accidents, nursing home negligence, and premises liability incidents. These cases can be physically and emotionally devastating. We are here to help our clients rebuild their lives while pursuing full and fair compensation for the harm they’ve suffered.

Car Accidents

Car crashes happen in a split second, but their effects can last a lifetime. Whether you were injured by a distracted driver, a drunk driver, or someone without insurance, we know how to investigate these cases, gather evidence, and build a strong claim for full compensation. We handle complex cases involving hit-and-run drivers, rideshare accidents involving Uber and Lyft, and serious injuries to motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians. These cases often involve catastrophic injuries and long-term medical needs. We work closely with medical providers, accident reconstruction experts, and other professionals as needed to document your losses and maximize your recovery.

Trucking Accidents

Accidents involving large commercial trucks are among the most devastating on Kentucky roads. We represent people injured in crashes caused by jackknife incidents, rollovers, underride and override accidents, driver fatigue, poor truck maintenance, and improper cargo loading. We handle cases involving delivery trucks speeding around quiet, residential neighborhoods and cement trucks barging through busy city streets. Because trucking companies are quick to mobilize their defense teams, it’s critical to have experienced legal counsel on your side as soon as possible. We know how to preserve evidence, identify all liable parties, and navigate the federal and state regulations that govern the trucking industry.

Nursing Home Negligence

We take special gratification in advocating for vulnerable seniors and their families when nursing homes fail in their duty of care. Our firm’s unique background in nursing home defense gives us an inside view of how these facilities operate and how they sometimes cut corners to protect profits. We handle cases involving a wide range of negligent care, including bedsores, malnutrition and dehydration, frequent falls, poor hygiene, sepsis, medication errors, and improper medical treatment. We also represent families in wrongful death claims when nursing home neglect results in the loss of a loved one. If you’ve noticed signs or symptoms of neglect, such as unexplained injuries, emotional withdrawal, or sudden health declines, we’re here to help you take action and protect your loved one’s rights.

Premises Liability

Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe premises for visitors, tenants, and customers. When they fail to do so, the consequences can be life-changing. We represent individuals injured in slip and fall and trip and fall accidents caused by hazardous conditions like wet floors, uneven pavement, or poor lighting. We also handle claims involving negligent security, where a lack of proper surveillance or response contributes to criminal activity and injury. Other cases we take on include dog bites, accidents in retail stores, and injuries caused by unsafe property maintenance. These cases often involve difficult questions about notice, foreseeability, and liability, but we know how to cut through the legal complexity to hold negligent property owners accountable.

Results That Make a Difference for Injury Victims in Louisville

We’ve recovered millions of dollars for our clients, including settlements and verdicts that have helped families rebuild after catastrophic injury or loss. But we don’t just focus on the numbers. For us, success is measured by the real-world impact of our work: helping someone access life-saving medical care, keep their home during a recovery period, or hold a negligent party accountable for avoidable harm. When we pursue compensation, we look at the full scope of your losses, not just medical bills and lost wages, but also pain and suffering, future medical needs, and the effect the injury has had on your quality of life.
