As a first-time crash injury client, I was completely lost and didn’t know what to do. I contacted Dettman Law immediately, and from the very first call, they made me feel reassured and supported. I had an excellent experience working with them throughout the entire process of handling my car accident case. From day one, the team was professional, responsive, and truly made me feel like a priority. Even though some of my symptoms/injuries developed or worsened over time, they helped me navigate the complexities of dealing with the insurance company and treatment, making sure every detail was documented and every option was explored. I always appreciated how clearly things were explained, and I felt confident knowing my case was in good hands. One thing that stood out to me was how easy it was to get in touch with someone. Whenever I reached out, I was able to speak to a real person and received answers quickly. Thanks to Dettman Law and the team, I was able to focus on my recovery while they handled the legal side of things. I’m incredibly grateful for the outcome and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal support after an accident.

Dettman took good care of me and my family while we was most vulnerable. After being in a side impact collision, I had no Idea what to do. My Fiancé got in contact with Brian Dettman and they were there every step of the way. Great work and amazing people. I would recommend these guys 10 times if I could.
Precious Allen
I wasn’t going to even call an attorney after my accident, but the at fault insurance company strung me along for months and then offered me practically nothing. Dettman was able to get me over 20x their offer. Very professional and easy process! Highly recommend
Cindy Sherman
I’ve got in a car accident that hurt my neck that was already injured before. I was very upset that I had to start those painful treatments again. Thankfully we found this wonderful company that made sure that all my expenses were covered! I don’t wish on anyone to be injured but if you do , you are in great hands with them! N. Adams

After my three flip car wreck, Brian Dettman and all his amazing staff at Dettman Law worked diligently to secure a settlement that made my situation whole again. I appreciate how thoughtful and thorough Dettman Law was in dealing with the other party’s and my own insurance. By having Brian Dettman on my side, I felt confident against the big insurance companies that I was getting my just due. I highly recommend Dettman Law to handle your personal injury case.
Stephanie Potter
I was injured in an accident in October. When I contacted Mr. Dettman four days after the event he was patient and kind. Mr. Dettman explained what I needed to do and what he and his office would handle. Brian and his staff took all the worry out of my recovery. When I had questions both Amanda and Katie were patient and answered them fully. Brian worked very hard to get me the best settlement for my injuries and the results were so much better than I expected. My recommendation is if you have a Personal Injury claim the Dettman Law Office is the office to call.
Sally Davis
I got hit about 2 years ago “rear ended”. Ended up getting My back hurt in this process. Brian immediately told me what to do! Dealing with insurance companies can be a nightmare if you’re alone! They offered us an extremely embarrassing amount up front and with all the pain I was in I couldn’t understand why. Brian just kept educating me on what to do, his biggest concern was how I was doing during the whole process which was also comforting.. After the initial offer that they gave, Brian said let me handle them, you get better.. Literally almost 2 years later we get a call and get a pretty big offer amount!!! Thx Again Brian !!
Wesley Parrish
There are plenty of attorneys in this city that represent people for car accidents, which can become overwhelming when you choose who to represent you. Brian and his staff was an excellent choice for me! He kept me up to date with my case, the staff always answered the phone, and they answered my questions any time of the day. I could not be happier with my decision to let Dettman Law assist with my case!
Miranda
I was nine months pregnant when someone ran into the back of my car and I wasn’t sure what I should do. I called Brian from the scene of my accident. He walked me through my options and made sure that everything was taken care of. Brian advised me how to get my car fixed and that the other driver’s insurance would cover the damages. I’m still going to the doctor for my treatment and couldn’t be more pleased with Dettman and Associates as my law firm.
Megan Mahan
I was referred to Brian by my chiropractor after my car accident and I must say it was the easiest experience I’ve ever had with an attorney. Case was settled with ease and everything was better than expected. Definitely recommend and if anything else comes up I’ll choose him again!
Kevin Tanakhone
Mr. Dettman was a wonderful ally during a difficult time. Brian was always available, always answered my questions, and worked to turn a really insulting first offer into a reasonable settlement with the insurance company.
While I really hope I never need his services again, if I find myself requiring an attorney for an accident again in the future, Brian will be my first call.
elisabeth wells
I was very pleased with Attorney Dettman. He answered my questions that I had from day one. I felt like my car accident was no longer my worry when I hired him. He truly worked for me and did everything he said he would. When I called for him he always called me back immediately. I definitely recommend Attorney Dettman and I will use him again if I ever need an attorney again!!
Jessica K.
Brian Dettman never gave up on me or my case. He checked in on me and made sure I was getting my treatments after my accident. I’m so glad that they were recommended to me.
Rachel Blomberg
Brian made the process so easy for me. I was in pain and worried about who would take care of my home and family but the legal process was one thing I didn’t have to worry about. He worked hard until a just settlement was reached. Brian is definitely someone you want in your corner if you are injured. Thank you Brian from our entire family.
Debra Moore
It took about three weeks for the insurance company to take full blame.. going through dettman law has probably been the easiest experience of my life, wasn’t sure what to expect, but my goodness, all expectations excited

Dog Bite Clients
Kentucky’s dog bite law is stricter than most states. See our Louisville dog bite attorney page.
I had a great experience working with Dettman Law on my dog bite claim. From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive—always quick to answer questions, provide updates, and explain the legal process in a way that was easy to understand.
Their team was supportive and made a stressful situation feel much more manageable. I felt like they genuinely cared about my well-being and were committed to reaching a fair settlement. Thanks to their professionalism and persistence, the case was resolved efficiently and with a favorable outcome.
I highly recommend Dettman Law to anyone dealing with a personal injury case—they’re knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly on your side.

My son was struck by a car, he broke both ankles & had to get rods in one. Dettman and associates fought extra hard for my son to get the treatments and money that he deserved. He also represented me in several injury cases. I recommend him to all my family and friends. Dettman and associates are thee best.

Sorel (Rell)
The integrity, compassion, and care that Brian Dettman, Gus Nelson and the remainder of this team showed time and time again throughout their work with me is unheard of in the attorney/client world. They treated me like family. The responsiveness of this team was incredible too. They were constantly on top of any issues that arose and kept me informed in a timely matter. I am thankful they were referred to me and could not have asked for a better experience.

Sequoia Hogue
I am truly grateful for Dettman Law. They helped both my mom and me during a very stressful time, and from the very beginning they were there for us—answering every question we had and always answered the phone anytime we called, which meant more to us than they probably realize. They are also bilingual, which made communication so much easier and helped us feel even more comfortable and understood.
What truly sets them apart is that they genuinely care about their clients—not just the money. Every step of the way, they were kind, patient, and understanding, and they never made us feel like just another case. They really helped put our minds at ease.
I will absolutely be recommending Dettman Law to everyone around me. If you’re looking for a law firm that treats you like family and truly cares, I couldn’t recommend them more.

It took a couple weeks of research before I called Brians office. There’s a good reason why he’s been voted “Best in Louisville” several times..He always listened to what I had to say, he returned my messaging promptly and he made a stressful time for me a little easier. I still wish my accident and injury hadn’t happened but Brian and his staff made the end result a huge success for me. Thank you my friend ! And many thanks to all of your staff. You’ve definitely got my vote for “Best in Louisville.”

Brian is the guy we all hope we are getting when needing to hire an attorney. He’s going to take every step seriously, but it’s those intangibles that make him so genuinely great.

stephen cecil
Everyone I interacted with was professional, approachable, and understanding. They responded quickly and were patient and explained things multiple times when I asked a lot of questions. I felt like I was truly in good hands and working with a group of people who knew what they were doing and could give me good advice. I didn’t feel like I was a number or lost in their piles of cases, and it was always a pleasure to communicate or be with them even under the circumstances of our interactions.
Would definitely recommend.

Brian provided continuous updates and counsel throughout the entire process that allowed me to get back to my day-to-day life. He employs a wonderful staff who are very knowledgeable and eager to assist even the most needy clients, such as myself.

Jarrod Carnahan
I had never needed a lawyer at any point in my life, and then I got injured, out of my home state and needed to find one fast. From the beginning, Brian and his team at Dettman Law were forthcoming, honest, and laid out the plans for the upcoming process. Brian and his team are clear and concise. They help explain your case and legalities using standard language so you never feel out-of-the-loop, or confused by legal verbiage. Brian and his team at Dettman Law are excellent at the legal and professional aspects of their job. However, the most impressive feature of Dettman Law is how easily, and quickly they build a personal relationship with you and make you feel like a part of their team. Despite being reduced to primarily phone calls, emails, and zoom calls because of covid and the fact I’m from a different state, I thought this could be an obstacle. Never once did I doubt Brian, Gus, or the rest of the team, and it was comforting knowing they were in my corner from the start and held my personal interests in high regard. A 10 out of 10 recommend for Brian and his team at Dettman Law.
Leon Roberts
Wonderful and accurate communications! The way it should be. And excellent results
Scott Hinz
From Fellow Attorneys and Professionals
Being an attorney myself, Mr. Dettman is one of the few lawyers in the field who I would trust to handle matters for my close family and friends. Brian is easy to approach and talk to, down to earth, and provides thoughtful advice and recommendations regarding client-case options.
Having been a former prosecutor, Brian is extremely clear and articulate in the court room, and can handle even the toughest of situations.
All in all, Mr. Dettman’s law firm provides zealous advocacy at reasonable rates, and prides itself on its commitment to client service. What set Brian apart though is the fact that he is not only a strong lawyer, but also a really great guy.
Shawn Shaffie
Attorney Dettman has amassed an impressive reputation as an exceptional lawyer, especially among fellow attorneys like myself. As a criminal prosecutor, he’s garnered more skills through trials, hearings, and negotiations than many attorneys acquire in their whole careers. Since then he has been applying those skills in representing injured clients throughout Kentucky. As with any skilled profession or service, there is no substitute for experience. Legal problems generally come to a more fair, quick, and painless resolution when both parties’ attorneys are experienced. Help your case by choosing Dettman and Associates and ensuring that your lawyer is the one that is prepared and experienced .
Rick Ramirez
Attorney Dettman is incredibly dedicated and determined to get results. He always does what he says he will do and makes himself available to his clients at all times. He always answers my calls, or calls me right back. Attorney Dettman is a zealous advocate and does a great job!
Beth Hendler
Brian and his team at Dettman Law are the best of the best. He is an amazing attorney that knows his craft in and out. Trust him with all of your accident and injury needs!!
