US 27 is effectively Nicholasville’s main street and its highway to Lexington, lined with signals, shopping centers and turn lanes from the Fayette County line south through town. Rush-hour rear-end crashes and red-light T-bone crashes are a daily risk. South of town, the road narrows toward the Kentucky River and Camp Nelson, and drivers face curves and steep grades. Jessamine County cases are heard at the court complex on North Main Street.
Jessamine Circuit and District Courts are at the Jessamine County Court Complex, 107 N. Main St., Nicholasville, KY 40356 (Kentucky Court of Justice county listing).
Stop-and-go traffic on US 27 produces many rear-end collisions. Those are often called “minor,” but they cause neck and back injuries that can last for months. Red-light crashes at the big intersections cause more serious T-bone injuries. Traffic-signal timing data, nearby business video, and the event-data recorders in modern cars can show who had the light. We go after that evidence early. See our car crash lawyer page.
Jessamine County crash claims start with your own PIP (PIP explained). A lawsuit against the at-fault driver is due within two years of the crash or your last PIP payment, whichever is later (KRS 304.39-230). Kentucky’s fault rule divides blame by percentage when both drivers contributed.
Rear-end crashes on US 27 often come down to the crash report, photos of the damage and whether anyone saw the other driver on a phone. Bring whatever you have when you meet with a Nicholasville, KY personal injury lawyer, along with records from UK Chandler or any urgent care you visited. If your child was hurt, keep separate notes and records from UK Golisano Children’s Hospital. And if you’re still sore weeks later, keep seeing your doctor.
