Representing Your Kentucky Injury Claim
Means Fighting For Your Life And Future
Medical malpractice and personal injury cases result from incidents that should have not occurred in the first place. When a victim or family comes to us with a story of how a doctor, nursing home staff or caregiver made a preventable mistake that caused painful and costly injuries, we are driven to pursue justice on their behalf. The same goes for those harmed by motor vehicle accidents, truck accidents, animal or dog bites, slip-and-falls, wrongful death and more.
At O’Brien Batten Kirtley & Coomer, PLLC, our team consists of trial-ready and reputable attorneys who neighbors, families and other members of the Lexington community trust. Representing fellow residents is an honor, and we will fight to secure the resources you need to recover and improve your quality of life. Our track record of recovering tens of millions of dollars on behalf of clients proves our commitment.
