Protecting You in Court
If you are facing a legal action — whether you have been injured in an accident or charged with a crime — one of the first things the other side will do is find out whether your lawyer is willing to take the case to trial. If he isn't, then they know you will be forced to settle for whatever they offer you.
I am Kenneth Haggard, a lawyer in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. I am an attorney who is known for trying cases. In fact, over the last 12 years, according to the Kentucky Trial Court Review, I rank 20th in the state in terms of the number of personal injury cases I have tried. In cases representing the plaintiff, I think I am Number 1.
I focus my trial work on four main areas of law:
- Personal injury: I handle all types of personal injury cases ranging from car and truck accidents, to slip and fall injuries, to shootings.
- Medical malpractice: I represent people who are injured because a doctor or other medical provider deviated from the standard of care in Kentucky.
- Criminal defense: I represent people who face criminal charges ranging from DUI to serious felony charges.
- Workers' compensation: I help injured workers obtain the medical care and disability benefits they are entitled to under Kentucky law.
I represent clients throughout western Kentucky and Fort Campbell. I also handle cases in western Tennessee working with local counsel.
No matter what type of legal issue you face, I always offer a free attorney consultation to discuss your case.
