Louisville Injury Lawyer-Aggressive Personal Injury Representation

Firm Overview

The swift, often life-changing nature of personal injury events is something with which far too many of us are familiar. Without notice, a normal activity or outing can turn into a truly tragic event, throwing entire families into chaos. When harm such as this is the result of another person or party's negligent acts or omissions, the feelings of frustration and anger are only compounded.

Because personal injuries can produce severe physical, financial, and psychological trauma that last for years, the law provides victims the right to pursue compensation as well as accountability from those found to be responsible. A Louisville injury lawyer can serve as the trusted advocate injured individuals need in order to begin the process of recovery.

McCoy & Hiestand, PLC Attorneys at Law are ready to fight for you. We will use our knowledge, experience and passion for the law to help get you the compensation you deserve. We are highly experienced litigators. Unlike other law firms that just want to settle cases quickly, we want to do whatever it takes for you to receive the highest compensation for your injury, trauma or loss and often that means fighting for you in court.
There are seemingly endless ways in which the negligence of others can lead to debilitating harm, though there seem to be certain categories which tend to occur with greater frequency than others. Some of the most typical situations leading to personal injury lawsuits include:

PRACTICE AREAS:
-Car Accidents
-Workers' Compensation
-Medical Malpractice
-Motorcycle Accident
-Nursing Home Abuse
-Wrongful Death
-Slip and Falls
-Premises Liability
-Truck Accident
-Catastrophic Injury
-Appeals
-Product Liability
