ABOUT US

The Kemper Law Office

Practice Focus

The Kemper Law Office is a Louisville-based litigation firm focused on serious civil disputes. We do not attempt to be everything to everyone. The firm concentrates on litigation, not volume work, and accepts a limited number of matters so that each case receives focused attention.

Our work often includes serious personal injury and wrongful death cases, civil rights litigation, dental malpractice, complex and referred insurance disputes (including fire and hail losses), contested estate and probate litigation, and business or financial disputes where litigation is unavoidable.

How We Practice

Our approach to law is grounded in a simple principle: we take cases to do good for people, and we handle them the right way.

In personal injury, dental malpractice, and insurance disputes, we represent individuals facing insurance companies with vastly greater resources. These are companies that have collected premiums for years and then look for reasons to deny or minimize legitimate claims. In estate litigation, we represent clients who have been taken advantage of by a family member or, in some cases, by professionals who breached their duties. In business disputes, including business divorces, we work with partners who need a realistic path forward, not prolonged conflict driven by billing incentives rather than outcomes.

Across every matter, we make the same commitment. We tell clients what we are going to do, and then we do it. We do not make promises we cannot keep. The client’s interests come first, and we avoid self-serving decisions. All in all, we never lose sight of the fact that it is the client’s case and the client’s life.

That approach is why many of our matters come by referral and why clients trust us with difficult decisions.

Who We Are

Our Practice Principles

Careful Legal Judgment

We approach each matter with discipline and attention to detail, focusing on the facts, the law, and what will meaningfully serve the client’s interests.

Client First Representation

The client’s interests lie at the center of every decision. We do not pursue litigation for its own sake or take actions designed to benefit the firm rather than the client.

Referral-Driven Practice

Many of our cases come from other attorneys and professionals who trust us with complex or high-stakes matters. That trust shapes how we practice and the care we bring to each case.

OUR PROVEN TRACK RECORD

Experience and Public Recognition

The firm’s work has been recognized nationally in connection with complex legal matters and public-interest litigation, including coverage by major national media outlets such as the New York Times, Washington Post, The Associated Press, NBC, ABC and CNN. Our focus, however, remains on the present case and the responsibilities owed to each client

A Practice Built on Trust

Clients often come to the firm during periods of significant stress. Our role is to give clear advice, avoid unnecessary escalation, and carry out the work we commit to doing in service of the client’s interests.
