Employers are required to maintain as safe a workplace as possible. In industries where there is risk of significant everyday injuries, like in the chemical, oil drilling or construction industries, employers are expected to have certain safety procedures in place and properly train employees to take safety precautions.
Even in an office setting, employers are required to maintain a clean, safe space for employees free of unnecessary hazards, and may be liable if they do not.

Central Kentucky Lawyer Referral Service - Since 1995, the Fayette County Bar Association (FCBA) in Lexington, KY, has sponsored its own separate Lawyer Referral Service. The CKLRS was created to help individuals who need a qualified attorney and have the ability to pay reasonable attorney fees. When you call the service, a trained staff person will help you determine the type of attorney needed. When appropriate, you will be referred to a local attorney with experience in the needed practice area. The attorneys that participate in the program agree to charge a nominal consultation fee of $25 for a 30 minute consultation. During the initial consultation, you can discuss the case with the attorney and the fees needed for additional representation.
