practice areas
Our only focus is your injury, thats where our job starts, and your path to healing begins.
Car Wrecks
If you've been involved in a car wreck, you will soon find the unexpected nature of the accident results in overwhelming emotions and a sense of helplessness. We don't plan for accidents or the ways in which the accident will affect our daily lives. Balancing your new healthcare needs, bills falling behind, and the need to get back to normal can place a burden on any individual or family. We're here to help.
Truck Wrecks
Each year, hundreds of thousands of families are injured in an accident involving a commercial vehicle. When negligently operated, these big rigs can cause big damage with thousands of these wrecks causing fatalities and catastrophic loss for families.
We care about truck safety, because our families depend on it and so does yours!
Social Security
Whether SSI or SSDI, the fact is, you are unable to work due to do your injury or disability. Unfortunately, the Social Security Administration doesn't always see it that way. If you've been denied your SSI/SSDI benefits, let us get you across the finish line with the Teeters & May advantage.
Personal Injury
Injuries come from many sources and we've seen them all. Whether you were injured at a store while shopping, by using a defective product, or at the hands of your doctor, we can guide you through the process of litigation and put you on the path to healing.

- Past, present and future medical expenses.

- Pain and suffering.
- Property damage. (Replacement value)
- Other expenses. Including loss of use of vehicle, transportation for medical care, etc.
- Punitive damages intended to penalize and deter driver negligence.

Kentucky is a “no-fault” insurance state, meaning that your insurance company will can cover a certain portion of your bills through personal injury protection or “PIP.” If you medical bills exceed the PIP amount, you can pursue compensation through a lawsuit.
You are also capable of acquiring “un-insured” motorist coverage through your policy for an additional costs.
As a last resort, you may initiate litigation against the driver directly. You can obtain a judgment against them and attempt to recover from their personal assets.
