Corbin Personal Injury & Car Wreck Lawyers

Corbin is more than just a hometown; it is the commercial heartbeat of the region. With Interstate 75 running through our backyard and the bustling Cumberland Falls Highway (Exit 25) drawing thousands of shoppers and diners daily, our roads are some of the busiest in Southeastern Kentucky.

But high traffic brings high risk. Whether it’s a rear-end collision in the gridlock of the Bypass, a high-speed semi-truck wreck on I-75, or a collision leaving a concert at The Corbin Arena, accidents here happen in an instant.

At Freeman Childers, we don't just work in Corbin—we live here. Our office is right on Main Street. When you hire us, you aren't getting a stranger from a billboard; you are getting a neighbor who knows how to win in our local courts.

The "Tri-County" Challenge

Corbin is unique because it sits at the convergence of Whitley, Knox, and Laurel counties. This geography makes legal cases here tricky for outsiders. We know exactly where the lines are drawn:

• The Arena & Exit 25: Crashes near The Corbin Arena, Cumberland Falls Highway, or Baptist Health are in Whitley County. These cases are filed in Williamsburg.

• North Corbin (Exit 29): If you are hit near the Walmart, Harland Sanders Café (the original KFC) or the northern commercial district, you are likely in Laurel County. These cases go to London.

• The Bypass (US 25E): As you head east toward Barbourville, you cross into Knox County. This includes areas like the Trademart Shopping Center and Corbin Station. These cases are filed in Barbourville.

Filing in the wrong venue can destroy your case. We ensure your lawsuit is filed in the correct courthouse the first time.

Handling Corbin’s Most Common Accidents

We know exactly where the dangers hide in our city. We handle:

• The "Exit 25" Gridlock: Rear-end collisions and side-swipes are constant on Cumberland Falls Highway, where distracted drivers rush between restaurants and retail stores.

• Interstate 75 Crashes: Catastrophic wrecks between Exit 25 and Exit 29, where heavy semi-truck traffic mixes with local commuters.

• Main Street Collisions: T-bone accidents and pedestrian injuries in the historic downtown district and near Sanders Park.

• Bypass Merges: Wrecks on the Corbin Bypass, where drivers often ignore speed limits while merging near the Knox County line.
