After having a horrible attorney work on my husband’s wreck, I decided to do some research when hiring an attorney for my auto accident. The reviews hold true! Mr. Desmond is efficient and great with communication. He handled everything for me so no added worries on my end as I continue to heal from my injuries, and he settled for the max! I would highly recommend him, and while I hope to not be involved in any more accidents, if I am, I’m going straight back to him!

After my car wreck, I called Jim, and we met up the next day. I had no clue how to go about the medical bills and dealing with insurance companies. He helped me through all of it and took charge of everything. He explained everything very well so I knew what he was doing. He also regularly communicated with me to make sure I was updated throughout the months long process. I would definitely recommend him to anybody!

I was t boned by a speeding driver running a red light on a Tuesday. Came home from the hospital on Friday and Jim was in my living room on Saturday at the referral of a friend of mine. He was my guide through the process and it was not for the faint of heart. He got me through the medical side and the insurance side and the frustrated side. Our settlement was as good as we could get without court which I did not want to do. I would recommend Jim for any personal injury and oh yes...first thing he did was share with me his cell number. I think I have a lifetime friend in Mr. Desmond.

I have known Jim for over 20 years and he has helped and advised us on MANY legal issues. But when my daughter was involved in a car accident, Jim jumped right on it and made our anxiety go away with all of his expertise and knowledge regarding auto accidents. I can honestly say, he is the best in the Midwest!Thanks Jim!

Car Wrecks are complicated, and I bet you are getting bad advice from the insurance company!

I am Attorney Jim Desmond, and I only handle injury claims, from car wrecks or motorcycle accidents. My law office is in Louisville, Kentucky, but I have handled car wrecks across the State. I am also licensed to handle personal injury claims in Indiana as well. I have been practicing law since 1993 in Kentucky and 1994 in Indiana. Unlike other injury lawyers, I meet with you personally even if it means I have to come to your home or your hospital room. Moreover, most of the time, I will try to obtain your police report for the car wreck during our first phone call so that I can intelligently inform you how to handle your car accident claim! I think I can fairly say that when it comes to customer service, I am probably the best injury lawyer in Louisville, Kentucky.

I have successfully handled and litigated many different types of personal injury cases such as head-on collisions, T-Bones, motorcycle wrecks, tractor-trailer collisions, moped injuries, injuries while riding a scooter, pedestrians hit by a vehicle, and various other incidents.

Before starting my own law, firm which handles only motor vehicle wrecks, early in my legal career I worked with a big “Television Lawyer” and even defended insurance companies from personal injury claims. So yes, I am an experienced car accident lawyer who has handled both big and small personal injury claims, from all aspects of the claim.

When I worked with that big television firm, I found out that they cared more about quantity than quality. That’s why I give you my cell phone number: (502) 609-7657. To answer a common question, that is really my cell phone and it has been for over 20 years. Very simply, YOU can reach me with your questions and concerns anytime.

Moreover, if you have been in a car wreck, I want you to understand that I am your personal legal resource, whether you were injured or not! Unlike the big nationwide law firms, I understand that everyone in a car accident needs legal advice; even if it is just about getting their car fixed or obtaining a rental car. As a result, I am happy to take ten minutes to answer your legal questions even If I do not think you have a case or if you don’t want to proceed with your personal injury claim.

Now and in the future, I want to be your car wreck lawyer, and I will prove that on a daily basis by making sure you have the means of reaching me directly!

Are You Getting the Legal Service You Deserve?

The law is a service business. After a car wreck, you might assume you're going to get better service from a bigger firm. That's not actually what matters. ... Being able to get answers directly from an experienced attorney should matter more. Are you getting the legal service you deserve?

Some people assume the attorney they see on the billboards or on the TV commercials, is actually the same one who is going to handle their case.

Shouldn't you expect that when you hire a personal injury attorney for your car wreck case? That's the DESMOND DIFFERENCE.
