🚨 When to NOT hire a lawyer:

When your damages are under $2,500 — sue the cops yourself in small claims court. Even if your damages are low, it is important to hold our law enforcement accountable.

At Ward & Simms, we actually want you to keep every dollar you're entitled to. We don’t want to take a cut of small claims that you can easily handle on your own.

Holding police accountable matters, and sometimes the best way is to file it yourself quickly and keep 100% of what you recover.

Know your rights. Hold them accountable.

As a civil rights lawyer, I get many calls from people who’ve been treated unfairly by the police. Sometimes, there’s no question that an officer crossed the line. Maybe they pushed you, shoved you to the ground, or used some other unnecessary force during a traffic stop. You were wronged, and y...

🚗 Been in a car accident? The clock starts ticking the moment it happens.

Insurance companies often reach out quickly—sometimes within hours—to protect their bottom line, not yours. Evidence can disappear, deadlines are strict under Kentucky law, and waiting too long could hurt your claim or even cost you the right to full compensation.

Our latest blog breaks it down: When Should I Hire a Lawyer After a Car Accident?

Spoiler: The sooner, the better—so you can focus on healing while we protect your rights and fight for maximum recovery.

😤 Insurance companies? They make money by KEEPING your claim money.

We make money by GETTING you the FULL recovery you're entitled to. Our interests = YOUR interests.

That's why we're telling you: Add Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) coverage NOW!

In Kentucky, about 1 in 7 drivers is uninsured. One crash with them could leave YOU paying thousands in medical bills and lost wages – even if it wasn't your fault.

UM/UIM steps in to protect you and your family. And it's usually super affordable – pennies compared to the risk.
Don't wait for an accident to wish you'd had it.
