Personal Injury

Serious and devastating injuries with long-lasting consequences can happen to children and adults in ordinary circumstances due to the negligence of others. Aside from pain and suffering, the injury can have a financial impact on the victim and his or her family. Medical expenses may mount and the financial drain can be ever more severe if the victim is temporarily or permanently unable to work.

Workers Compensation

Workers compensation laws are specifically designed to ensure employees who are injured or disabled while on the job receive fixed monetary awards, as compensation for their injuries, without the need for litigation. These laws also provide benefits for the dependents of those workers who are killed as a result of work-related accidents or illnesses.

Wrongful Death

A wrongful death occurs when someone is killed as a result of another's carelessness, negligence or malicious action. Wrongful death may result from a car, truck or other vehicular accident, a work-related accident, a criminal act, medical malpractice, a defective product or unsafe premises.

Serious and Catastrophic Injuries

An accident that causes a catastrophic injury due to the carelessness or negligence of another is devastating to both the injured victim and his or her family. You may be angry and bitter about the terrible changes you must now deal with. If a family member is killed by someone else's carelessness, the surviving family members suffer extreme grief and emotional turmoil, and often the loss of financial support.

Auto Accidents

Criminal Defense

DUI

DUI (also known as drunk driving, driving while intoxicated or DWI) is a serious crime in Tennessee and Kentucky. Individuals charged with DUI face serious penalties if pleading or found guilty.

Divorce

While every divorce case is unique, the process itself is similar. Compassionate and experienced attorneys at our divorce law firm guide clients through the process and explain what to expect each step.

Domestic Assault

Domestic assault is a serious criminal offense in Tennessee and Kentucky. The broader term domestic violence includes domestic assault as well as harassment, terrorist threats and emotional abuse. Although men are most often accused of domestic assault against women, anyone can be accused of domestic assault.

Child Custody

When parents decide to live apart, Tennessee and Kentucky law requires that the physical, emotional and financial well-being of the children must be provided for. Depending on the circumstances of the case, each parent is typically entitled to significant periods of parenting time with the children and input into major decisions affecting their children's healthcare, education and overall welfare.

Adoption

Adoption creates the legal relationship of parent and child between persons who are not biologically connected. Adoption laws vary from state to state, and thus adoption law in Tennessee differs from that in Kentucky. The attorneys at The Kennedy Law Firm, PLLC are well versed in adoption law in both states.

Military Law

Military law is a specialized area of law that applies to military service members. Military law has three major components: military criminal justice, protections for persons on active duty and their families, and veterans benefits.

Veterans Law

Former members of our military services put their lives on the line to protect our freedom and our country. They deserve the special benefits that they are entitled to. However, all too frequently, the benefits are unjustly denied. If your benefit claim was denied, do not give up. You have the right to appeal, and this time have The Kennedy Law Firm, PLLC attorney Lee Berry represent you.
