Frequently Asked Questions For Personal Injury Cases

What is a Personal Injury Case?

A personal injury case arises when someone suffers harm to their body, mind, or emotions due to another person’s negligence, carelessness, or wrongful actions. At RedStone Law, our Kentucky and Tennessee personal injury attorneys handle a wide range of cases — including auto accidents, workplace injuries, medical malpractice, and wrongful death. Our mission is to hold negligent parties accountable and help victims rebuild their lives.

When to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer

After an accident, the road to recovery can feel overwhelming — especially when facing large insurance companies or complex legal requirements. Hiring an experienced personal injury lawyer early in the process ensures your rights are protected and your claim is handled properly. The attorneys at RedStone Law will manage communication with insurers, gather critical evidence, and fight for the compensation you deserve.

What to Do After an Accident

1. Seek Medical Attention: Your health comes first. Even minor injuries should be evaluated by a medical professional.
2. Report the Accident:
Call the police for traffic collisions or notify management if it occurred at work or a business.
3. Document Everything:
Take photos, collect witness information, and keep copies of all reports and bills.
4. Do Not Admit Fault:
Avoid discussing blame at the scene or with insurance adjusters.
5. Consult a Personal Injury Lawyer:
Before speaking with insurers, contact RedStone Law for a free consultation to understand your rights and next steps.

How RedStone Law Can Help

At RedStone Law, we combine over 25 years of experience with a deep commitment to our clients. We approach every case with care, professionalism, and persistence — investigating the facts, negotiating with insurers, and, when necessary, taking your case to court. Our team focuses on securing maximum compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. We aim to relieve the legal burden so you and your family can focus on healing and moving forward.

What Does the Legal Process Look Like?

Every personal injury case is unique, but most follow these key steps:
1. Free Consultation: We evaluate your case, answer questions, and explain your rights.
2. Investigation: Our team gathers evidence, interviews witnesses, and reviews police and medical reports.
3. Negotiation: We handle communication with insurance companies and push for a fair settlement.
4. Litigation (if necessary): If a settlement cannot be reached, we are fully prepared to take your case to court.
5. Resolution: We work to secure full and fair compensation for your injuries, losses, and long-term recovery needs.

Car Accidents

Understand car accident injury cases, how RedStone Law is different, and key steps to insuring a positive outcome for your case!

Semi-truck

How DOES ReDstone LAW Determine fault for a car accident case?

Every driver has a duty to exercise ordinary care for the safety of other persons using the highway. We investigate and prove fault by motorists who:

  • Fail to maintain a safe distance
  • Fail to slow to a safe speed
  • Fail to allow time for safe clearance
  • Fail to obey traffic signals (i.e., red lights or stop signs)
  • Fail to keep a proper lookout for pedestrian traffic
  • Fail to pay attention, especially at night or during inclement weather
  • Fail to perceive a dangerous condition or immediate hazard
  • Fail to drive free of impairment by drugs or alcohol
  • Fail to stop operating a cell phone while operating an automobile

WHAT DOES redstone LAW DO IN AN AUTOMOBILE CASE?

At RedStone Law, our car accident attorneys in Tennessee and Kentucky handle every part of your case from start to finish. We immediately investigate the accident, preserve vital evidence, interview witnesses, and communicate with insurance companies and medical providers on your behalf.

Our experienced legal team carefully documents your injuries, damages, and expenses to build a strong claim. We use modern technology to clearly show what happened and how your life has been impacted.

We prepare a thorough settlement demand, negotiate with the insurance company, and work to achieve a full and fair settlement without going to court. If trial becomes necessary, our attorneys, with over 40 years of combined experience, are fully prepared to present your story to a jury and fight for the justice and compensation you deserve.

Insurance Company Tactics

Insurance companies and insurance adjusters use several tactics to deny claims and pay less than the value of the claim.  Some of the most common we see are:

  • Blaming accident victims for their own injuries
  • Reducing the value of the case by misinterpreting medical records
  • Denying the injuries are related to the car crash
  • Making low settlement offers for pre-existing or age-related factors
  • Delaying claims as long as possible until you must take a low settlement offer
  • Making lowball settlement offers to reduce the amount you think is reasonable
  • Telling injury victims they do not need to hire a lawyer

HOW IS redstone LAW PAID?

At RedStone Law, our attorneys — Mike, Morgan, and Mark — bring together over 40 years of combined experience helping clients across Kentucky and Tennessee recover after life’s unexpected events.

You don’t need any money to hire us. Our firm works on a contingency basis, meaning you only pay if we win your case. Unlike many firms that charge 40% to start, our fee has remained one-third for over 25 years — a fair and transparent rate that reflects our commitment to clients, not advertising.

We provide every client with a free consultation, clear communication, and upfront written agreements — no hidden disclaimers, no surprises. Through your secure client portal, you’ll have 24/7 access to your case, and our attorneys personally return calls or messages by the next business day.

Understanding Car Accident Injury Cases

Car accidents are among the leading causes of serious injuries in Clarksville, Tennessee, and Hopkinsville, Kentucky. At RedStone Law, we are committed to helping individuals and families who have been impacted by the physical, emotional, and financial challenges these accidents bring.

Our personal injury practice focuses on advocating for car accident victims, ensuring they receive fair compensation for their injuries. With extensive experience handling these cases, we understand the unique aspects of car accident claims and how to navigate the legal system to achieve the best outcomes for our clients.

Key Aspects of Car Accident Injury Cases:

Proving Negligence
Most car accidents result from negligence, such as distracted driving, speeding, or driving under the influence. To secure compensation, our attorneys must prove that the at-fault driver breached their duty of care and caused your injuries.

Gathering Evidence
Strong evidence is the foundation of every successful case. Our team collects police reports, witness statements, medical records, and photos or videos of the crash scene. When needed, we work with accident reconstruction experts to strengthen your claim.

Dealing with Insurance Companies
Negotiating with insurance companies can be challenging. Adjusters often attempt to minimize payouts or deny claims. RedStone Law handles all communication and negotiation on your behalf, ensuring your rights are protected and your case is valued fairly.

Maximizing Compensation
Car accidents can cause serious injuries, financial stress, and emotional hardship. We work to recover the full range of damages available, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, future medical care, and loss of quality of life.

Navigating Tennessee and Kentucky Laws
Car accident laws differ by state, including statutes of limitations and comparative fault rules. Our attorneys have deep knowledge of both Tennessee and Kentucky law and use that experience to protect our clients and maximize recovery.

6 Steps we take in a car crash case

  1. Review Police Report and Insurance Coverage: We explain how your insurance applies to your case, review the police report for accuracy, and make sure all key evidence is identified.
  2. Interview Witnesses and Law Enforcement:  Our experienced legal team, which includes a retired police detective, interviews witnesses and law enforcement officers when needed to strengthen your case.
  3. Secure Photographs, Videos, and Vehicle Data:  We act quickly to preserve time-sensitive evidence — including surveillance footage, dashcam recordings, and vehicle “black box” data that can be crucial in serious injury or wrongful death cases.
  4. Preserve Additional Evidence:  The Case Evaluation addresses your concerns and helps you understand what your case is about.  How much time will the case take?  What compensation is recoverable?  Questions like these are handled in the Case Evaluation.
  5. Provide a Free Case Evaluation:  During your free consultation, we answer your questions, explain what compensation may be recoverable, and outline the expected timeline for your case.
  6. Create a Customized Plan of Action: Once we take your case, you’ll receive a personalized plan of action uploaded to your RedStone Law Client Portal, giving you 24/7 access to updates and next steps. You never need money to hire us, and all fees are clearly outlined in writing.

Understanding Semi-Truck Injury Cases

Crashes involving commercial semi-trucks—also known as tractor-trailers or big rigs—often result in devastating injuries that require surgery, rehabilitation, and long-term medical care. Because these trucks weigh many times more than passenger vehicles, collisions frequently cause serious and lasting harm, especially along major highways like I-24 in Tennessee or the Pennyrile Parkway (Interstate 66) in Kentucky.

At RedStone Law, our attorneys have extensive experience handling semi-truck and commercial vehicle injury cases. We understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll these accidents take, and we know how to hold trucking companies and insurers accountable.

What causes Semi-Truck accidents?

Semi-truck and box-truck crashes can happen for many reasons, including:

  • Distracted or fatigued driving
  • Improperly loaded or shifting cargo
  • Poor truck maintenance leading to brake or tire failure
  • Speeding or aggressive driving
  • Unsafe backing or wide turns

Because these vehicles are operated by commercial drivers under strict regulations, even small mistakes can have life-changing consequences.

Key Legal Considerations in Box Truck Accidents

Determining Liability

Truck accidents often involve multiple responsible parties. We investigate all potential sources of fault, which may include:

  • The truck driver
  • The trucking or logistics company
  • A third-party maintenance provider
  • The manufacturer of a defective vehicle or part

Identifying every liable party is essential to ensuring you receive the full compensation you deserve.

Proving Negligence

To win a truck accident case, we must show that negligence—such as driver fatigue, improper maintenance, or a company’s unsafe policies—caused the crash. Our team gathers and analyzes evidence like maintenance logs, driver records, and black box data to prove what went wrong and why.

Insurance and Compensation
Commercial truck accidents typically involve large insurance policies and aggressive adjusters. We handle all negotiations on your behalf, ensuring you aren’t pressured into an unfair settlement. Our goal is to recover the full value of your claim, including compensation for:

  • Medical expenses and rehabilitation
  • Lost wages or future income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent disabilities or loss of quality of life

Understanding Tennessee and Kentucky Laws
Truck accident laws vary by state, and time is critical. With offices in both Clarksville, Tennessee, and Hopkinsville, Kentucky, RedStone Law is uniquely positioned to navigate the different legal systems in each state.

Six steps we take in a semi-truck crash

  1. Immediate scene investigation: Small pieces of evidence can become critical facts.
  2. Interview witnesses and law enforcement: Our retired police detective and legal team conduct in-depth interviews.
  3. Secure video, photos, and black box data: We act quickly before evidence is erased or vehicles are repaired.
  4. Preserve trucking company evidence: We send preservation letters to secure driver logs, maintenance reports, and internal communications.
  5. Free Case Evaluation: We explain your case, the process, and your potential compensation.
  6. Custom Plan of Action: Every client receives a tailored strategy and 24/7 access to our client portal.

You pay no upfront costs. Our fees are transparent, always in writing, and typically 15% lower than many competing firms because we don’t spend money on TV ads or billboards, we invest in our clients.

Why Choose RedStone Law?

  • Experienced Attorneys: A legal team skilled in complex truck injury and wrongful death cases.
  • Client-Focused Approach: We believe in relationships built on trust, communication, and results.
  • No Upfront Fees: You pay nothing unless we win your case.
  • Local Knowledge: Our attorneys know the courts, laws, and communities of Tennessee and Kentucky.
  • Transparency and Care: We provide honest guidance and stay accessible to you throughout the process.

WHAT DOES redstone LAW DO IN A SEMI-TRUCK AND TRAILER ACCIDENT AND INJURY CASES?

Semi-truck crashes require fast action and deep knowledge of federal and state trucking rules. At RedStone Law, attorneys Mike, Morgan, and Mark Burman investigate immediately, preserve critical evidence, and build the strongest claim under Tennessee and Kentucky law. Mike also maintains advanced trucking-law training (including membership in national truck-injury attorney groups), and our team applies that expertise to every case.

What we do, step by step:

  • Identify all liable parties (driver, carrier, broker/shipper, maintenance, parts).
  • Secure time-sensitive evidence before it disappears: scene photos, CCTV, dashcam/bodycam, ELD logs, dispatch data, bills of lading, maintenance records.
  • Download and analyze vehicle data (ECM “black box,” telematics, onboard video).
  • Document injuries and mechanism of harm; flag hard-to-detect trauma (e.g., TBI, labral tears).
  • Locate and interview witnesses; cross-check police reports for accuracy.
  • Inspect the scene to determine needed experts (reconstruction, human factors, biomechanics).
  • Calculate all damages (medical costs, wage loss, future care, pain and suffering).
  • Protect deadlines by calendaring the statute of limitations and notice requirements.
  • Prepare a thorough settlement demand and negotiate with commercial insurers for a full and fair recovery.
  • If needed, file suit and try the case with clear visuals that tell your story to a jury.

If you or a loved one was hurt in a semi-truck or trailer crash, we’ll move quickly to safeguard evidence and pursue the compensation you deserve—so you can focus on healing while we handle the fight.

Insurance Company Tactics

Insurance companies and their adjusters use many tactics to minimize or deny valid personal injury and wrongful death claims after a semi-truck accident. These companies often move quickly to protect their interests, not yours.

Some of the most common strategies we see include:

  • Blaming the victim for their own injuries
  • Concealing or delaying the release of critical evidence about the truck driver or carrier
  • Misinterpreting medical records to reduce claim value
  • Denying that severe injuries are related to the crash
  • Offering low settlements based on age or pre-existing conditions
  • Delaying the process to pressure victims into accepting less
  • Making “lowball” settlement offers to lower your expectations
  • Suggesting that you don’t need an attorney

At RedStone Law, our attorneys are skilled in recognizing and countering these tactics. We handle all communication and negotiation with insurance companies, ensuring your rights are protected and that you receive the full and fair compensation you deserve.

How Is redstone Law Paid?

At RedStone Law, you never need money upfront to hire us. We are paid a percentage of the money recovered in your case. While many personal injury firms charge 40% or more to begin a case, our fee has remained one-third for decades. We also don’t spend money on expensive TV ads, allowing us to keep our costs low and pass that savings on to our clients. There are no hidden disclaimers; transparency and honesty guide everything we do.

Your consultation and case evaluation are always free. You can confidentially discuss your semi-truck or wrongful death case with one of our attorneys to understand your rights and receive a clear plan of action. There is never any pressure to move forward.

All fees and case expenses are clearly outlined in writing. As a client, you’ll also have access to our secure client portal where you can message our team or upload documents anytime. We respond promptly, typically within one business day, so you’re always informed.

Our staff and paralegals bring years of experience, and our attorneys have successfully handled countless truck accident, personal injury, and wrongful death cases across Tennessee and Kentucky. At RedStone Law, we are honored to serve our community and committed to helping you and your loved ones rebuild with confidence.

Advocating for Motorcycle Accident Victims

Protecting Your Rights and Future

Motorcycle accidents often result in devastating injuries because riders have little protection compared to those in cars or trucks. At RedStone Law, we understand the unique challenges motorcyclists face, from severe injuries to unfair bias in how claims are handled. Our attorneys in Clarksville, Tennessee, and Hopkinsville, Kentucky, are dedicated to fighting for riders and helping them rebuild their lives after serious crashes.

Why Motorcycle Accidents Are Unique

Severe Injuries
Motorcyclists are highly exposed, often suffering from broken bones, road rash, spinal cord injuries, or traumatic brain injuries.

Unfair Bias Against Riders
Motorcyclists are sometimes blamed simply for choosing to ride. We counteract that bias by presenting clear, fact-based evidence of driver negligence.

Complex Liability Issues
Determining fault can involve multiple factors — other drivers, unsafe roads, or defective motorcycle parts. We know how to uncover and prove negligence.

How We Help Motorcycle Accident Victims

Thorough Investigation
We collect police reports, witness statements, and surveillance footage. When needed, we work with accident reconstruction experts to establish fault and strengthen your case.

Proving Negligence
Many motorcycle crashes are caused by distracted driving, speeding, unsafe turns, or failure to yield. We build your case around these violations and fight to hold the negligent driver accountable.

Negotiating with Insurance Companies
Insurance companies often undervalue motorcycle accident claims. Our team handles all communication and fights for the full and fair compensation you deserve.

Maximizing Compensation
We pursue damages for medical expenses, lost wages, rehabilitation, pain and suffering, and long-term disabilities.

Navigating Tennessee and Kentucky Laws
Each state has its own motorcycle laws — including helmet requirements and comparative fault rules. Our firm’s local experience ensures your rights are protected under both.

Six Steps We Take In a Motorcycle Accident

  1. Review the police report and insurance coverage – We explain how your policy applies and confirm key details in the report.
  2. Interview witnesses and law enforcement – Our team ensures that all perspectives are recorded accurately.
  3. Secure photographs, videos, and black box data – We move quickly before time-sensitive evidence is lost.
  4. Preserve crucial evidence – We act fast to safeguard motorcycle parts, helmet integrity, or the at-fault vehicle.
  5. Provide a free case evaluation – We discuss your injuries, medical costs, and legal options with no pressure.
  6. Develop a customized plan of action – You’ll receive a clear roadmap and full access to your secure client portal for updates.

Why Choose RedStone Law

At RedStone Law, we believe motorcyclists deserve the same respect and protection as any other driver. With deep roots in Clarksville and Hopkinsville, our attorneys combine compassion with fierce advocacy. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident, contact us today for a free consultation, and let us fight for the justice and compensation you deserve.

The team at RedStone law brings over 25 years of experience helping hundreds of accident victims against at-fault drivers and commercial operators of all types.

Insurance Company Tactics

Insurers often use predictable strategies to limit payouts, such as:

  • Blaming the rider for their own injuries
  • Downplaying medical records
  • Offering low settlements
  • Delaying payment to pressure early resolution

At RedStone Law, we recognize these tactics and fight aggressively to ensure fair treatment.

HOW IS BURMAN LAW PAID?

Motorcycle Safety Laws in Kentucky and Tennessee

Kentucky:
Motorcyclists under 21, permit holders, and new licensees must wear protective helmets. Eye protection and mirrors are also required.

Tennessee:
All motorcycle riders and passengers are required to wear helmets approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).

Understanding and applying these laws helps strengthen your case by showing whether the at-fault party violated key safety regulations.

Rideshare and Ride App Accident Cases

Accidents involving rideshare services like Uber and Lyft can be legally complex. These cases often involve multiple layers of insurance coverage, commercial driving standards, and questions about whether the driver was “on the app” at the time of the crash. At RedStone Law, we represent clients across Kentucky and Tennessee who have been injured in rideshare or ride app accidents, whether as passengers, other drivers, or pedestrians.

What Types of Ride App Cases Does RedStone Law Handle

We handle all types of rideshare accident cases, including:

  • Crashes involving Uber, Lyft, or other ride-app services
  • Passenger injuries during active or waiting rides
  • Collisions caused by distracted or unvetted drivers
  • Claims involving uninsured or underinsured drivers
  • Negligent hiring or supervision by rideshare companies
  • Wrongful-death and loss-of-consortium claims
  • Punitive-damage cases and pain-and-suffering claims

Our cases range from tens of thousands to multi-million-dollar settlements and verdicts. We practice in both federal and state courts throughout Kentucky and Tennessee, with offices in Hopkinsville, KY, and Clarksville, TN, to better serve you.

How DOES redstone LAW Determine fault for a Ride App case?

Every driver has a duty to use reasonable care for the safety of others. We investigate and prove negligence by showing that the at-fault party failed to:

  • Maintain a safe distance or proper speed
  • Obey traffic lights and stop signs
  • Keep a proper lookout for pedestrians or other vehicles
  • Avoid driving while distracted, impaired, or fatigued
  • Properly vet and train drivers under rideshare policies
  • Maintain their vehicle in a safe operating condition

We also evaluate rideshare company insurance coverage — including whether the driver was logged into the app or actively transporting a passenger — to identify all available compensation.

WHAT DOES redstone LAW DO IN A Ride App Accident Case?

Rideshare injury and wrongful-death cases require fast action to preserve critical evidence.

Our firm:

  • Collects and secures dashcam, CCTV, and Ring video before it’s erased
  • Downloads “black box” and telematics data from vehicles
  • Interviews witnesses and law enforcement officers
  • Engages accident-reconstruction experts
  • Reviews driver background and rideshare activity logs
  • Preserves company and app data showing when the driver was active

We use advanced technology to visually demonstrate your case, turning evidence into clear digital reconstructions and professional graphics — all produced in-house to control costs.

Our goal is a fair, full out-of-court settlement, but we prepare every case for trial from day one.

Insurance Company Tactics

Insurance carriers and adjusters often use tactics designed to minimize or deny claims, such as:

  • Blaming victims for their own injuries
  • Misreading or downplaying medical records
  • Denying coverage based on technicalities
  • Offering quick, low settlements before injuries are fully known
  • Dragging out the process to pressure victims into settling

At RedStone Law, we know these strategies, and how to defeat them.

Bicycle Accident Cases

Bicycle accidents often happen because of distracted or speeding drivers who fail to share the road safely. At RedStone Law, our attorneys—Mike, Morgan, and Mark—represent cyclists seriously injured by negligent motorists. We understand how devastating these crashes can be and work quickly to preserve evidence, determine liability, and pursue the full compensation you deserve.

Our Proven Process for Bicycle Accident Cases

1. Immediate Investigation
We go to the scene as soon as possible to preserve key evidence before it’s lost or destroyed. Even small details—tire marks, debris, or camera footage—can make a big difference.

2. Interview Witnesses and Officers
Our retired police investigator and legal team carefully interview witnesses and review police reports to ensure fairness and accuracy.

3. Secure Photos, Video, and “Black Box” Data
Surveillance footage can be erased quickly, and vehicle data (from onboard “black boxes”) must be downloaded before repairs or scrapping. We act fast to preserve this critical proof.

4. Preserve Hidden Evidence
We take legal steps to preserve key documentation—such as phone records, vehicle data, or driver logs—that may be under the control of the at-fault driver or insurance company.

5. Free Case Evaluation
During your evaluation, we explain your legal rights, outline potential compensation, and answer questions about timelines, insurance, and case value.

6. Personalized Plan of Action
Once we take your case, we create a customized plan with clear next steps. You’ll have 24/7 access through the RedStone Law Client Portal, or we can send updates by mail if preferred.

How DOES redstone LAW Determine fault for a Bicycle case?

Every driver must exercise reasonable care to protect others on the road. We investigate and prove fault when drivers:

  • Fail to provide at least 3 feet of passing distance
  • Drive too fast for conditions or follow too closely
  • Run stop signs or red lights
  • Drive distracted or under the influence
  • Fail to check blind spots or yield to cyclists
  • Operate a poorly maintained vehicle

We also pursue claims against municipalities or contractors when unsafe road design or debris contributes to an accident.

WHAT DOES redstone LAW DO IN A Bicycle Accident Case?

Our team has the knowledge, technology, and resources to handle even the most complex cases. We:

  • Analyze medical records and injury patterns
  • Collect and organize evidence to tell your story clearly
  • Use advanced visuals, charts, and reconstructions to prove fault and damages
  • Negotiate with insurers for maximum settlement value
  • Prepare every case as if it will go to trial

When insurers refuse to pay fairly, we present your case to a jury with clear, compelling visuals that show how the crash occurred and how your life has been impacted.

Insurance Company Tactics

Insurance companies often try to reduce or deny valid claims. Some of the most common tactics include:

  • Blaming the cyclist for their own injuries
  • Misinterpreting medical evidence
  • Claiming the injuries were pre-existing or minor
  • Offering lowball settlements or delaying responses
  • Discouraging victims from hiring a lawyer

We know how to challenge these tactics and protect your right to full compensation.

KENTUCKY and tennessee LAW

Kentucky Law – KRS § 189.340
Drivers must provide at least three feet of clearance when passing a cyclist and may only pass safely when the opposite lane is clear. Cyclists must ride no more than two abreast and avoid obstructing traffic flow.

Tennessee Law – T.C.A. § 55-8-175 (“Jeff Roth and Brian Brown Bicycle Protection Act”)
Motorists must leave a minimum of three feet between their vehicle and any bicycle while passing and maintain that distance until safely past. Cyclists riding slower than traffic must stay near the right edge of the road except when turning or avoiding hazards.

Both states recognize the duty of motorists to exercise due care to avoid collisions with cyclists and hold negligent drivers accountable for violations.
