What Damages Am I Entitled to If I Win?
Kentucky is one of the few states that follow the no-fault system when it comes to traffic accidents. What this means is that you’ll file a claim with your own insurance company and recover medical expenses, lost wages (up to a certain limit), replacement services, and other related costs. However, you can also decide to opt out of the no-fault system. This option allows you to file a claim with the other party and recover the following damages:
- Medical expenses (current and long-term)
- Lost wages
- Lost earning potential
- Property damage
- Permanent disfigurement
- Reduced quality of life
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
Generally, in Louisville and throughout Kentucky, the damages you may be entitled to will depend on whether you choose the no-fault system or opt out of it. You may also be awarded punitive damages, but this is entirely up to the judge or jury and only applies in cases where the other party was extremely negligent.
Possible Liable Parties in a Traffic Accident in Louisville
In a traffic accident in Louisville, several parties could potentially be liable. The most obvious is the driver who directly caused the accident, whether through negligence, such as speeding or distracted driving, or more reckless behavior, like driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Other possible liable parties may include:
- The driver’s employer
- The manufacturer of the vehicle or its parts.
- Government entities
- Contractors responsible for road maintenance and safety
Since each case is different, it’s always advisable to seek legal counsel. This way, you’ll have a better understanding of your legal options and who to file a claim with.
