When you have been wronged by your employer, you may be upset, angry, afraid and sad, sometimes all at the same time.  We know that the vast majority of Kentucky employees are hardworking people who take pride in the quality of their work.  To be treated unfairly by an employer or to be wrongfully terminated can be devastating.. At McCarty Legal, we will listen to what happened to you in a free initial consultation, and we know what questions to ask to assess your situation.

We have successfully represented employees against Fortune 500 companies, as well as state, city and county governments.. We understand the difficulties that confront employees in Kentucky. Our firm dedicates itself to defending employees’ rights and fighting against employment discrimination based on race, gender, religion, disability, or age.

Kent is currently representing businesses regarding alleged tobacco excise tax violations in investigations throughout the Southeastern United States.. More recently, Kent has been involved in defending elected and appointed officials in voter fraud cases brought in federal court.

I solely practice Bankruptcy and Foreclosure Defense in Louisville Kentucky.  I enjoy managing mortgage, business, student loan, and income tax debts in Bankruptcy.

I have over 25 years of experience in criminal law.  I began my career in 1986 as Chief Narcotics Prosecutor in the Jefferson County Commonwealth's Attorney's Office (Louisville's first "Drug Czar").  I have developed an intimate knowledge of how prosecution works, and I use this knowledge to aggressively manage a client's defense.. Criminal investigations can devastate people's lives.  Overzealous prosecutors can make good people feel bad, and questions raised during investigations can color the opinions of colleagues, friends and relatives.  I believe defending a client is not just about the legal issues - it's personal and emotional.  In order to provide the best defense, it is important to really care about the client - to walk a mile in their shoes.

I have been representing people in bankruptcy for almost 25 years.  As a previous staff attorney for the bankruptcy court in Western  District of Kentucky, I began my practice in the early nineties and now have five offices throughout Louisville, Frankfort and Southern Indiana.  I am one of only five consumer bankruptcy attorneys in Kentucky that have been certified by the American Board of Certification.. I have a wonderful staff of women including my daughter who is my assistant office manager and a few good men (my twin sons will be taking the Kentucky Bar in July and joining my firm in August) who love helping people regain their financial life.  Call us today for a complimentary consultation where we will sit down with you and help you understand all of your financial options.

I am the founder of The Schafer Law Office. I have been licensed in the state of Kentucky since 1986, graduating from the University of Louisville Brandeis School of Law. I have over 25 years of practical yet innovative experience dealing with personal injury cases. Unlike many attorneys who use paralegals to manage cases, write briefs, motions and meet with clients, I make it my personal goal to be personally involved in all of those things. I give a great deal of personal attention to each and every case. In my free time, I enjoy skiing, making as many trips to Big Sky and Snow Bird as I can in a year, as well as rooting for the University of Louisville Cardinals at sporting events.

I am passionate about obtaining fair compensation for consumers who are seriously injured through medical malpractice, defective products, nursing home neglect and abuse, and automobile and trucking accidents.  That passion is born of a belief in the intrinsic value of human life and the need to protect our fundamental human rights to life, liberty and security of person.. I am married with three kids.  I was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky where I have volunteered on numerous boards and charitable organizations and as a coach in youth sports.
