Many of our lawyers have been selected for legal services listings such as Best Lawyers in America, Kentucky Super Lawyers and Best Lawyers in Kentucky. We are trial attorneys and appear in Kentucky Trial Verdict Reporter as among the most prolific law firms in Kentucky.
Practice
Our civil litigation practice focuses on defending individuals, businesses and government entities against legal actions. We also undertake plaintiff work in employment and workers' compensation matters. As trial lawyers, we appreciate the growing expense of jury trials in terms of cost and time. Accordingly, we are strong advocates for alternative dispute resolution strategies such as mediation and arbitration whenever appropriate.
Clients
Our clients include individuals, businesses and government entities such as school districts and cities. We have represented school districts, professionals, small corporations, trust and estate clients, and national and local insurance companies. We have a particular focus on defending trucking companies, and our attorney, Daniel E. Murner, has appeared at national trucking industry conventions and educational programs. Whoever the client, we believe that being able to respond quickly to allegations and charges is the best way to avoid the time and cost of jury trials. However ,we are trial lawyers and are always prepared to take a client's matter to court.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
