Kentucky law

How Kentucky law treats apartment fire injuries

Statutory research reviewed 2026-08-14. Not legal advice.

Shared fault
Kentucky follows pure comparative negligence: damages are reduced by the injured person's share of fault, with no percentage that bars recovery outright.
Ky. Rev. Stat. § 411.182
Damage caps
Kentucky cannot cap injury damages at all. The state constitution forbids the legislature from limiting recovery for injury or death, which makes Kentucky one of the few states where no damages cap of any kind can be enacted.
Ky. Const. § 54
Claims against government
Claims against state agencies go to the Kentucky Claims Commission within one year. Cities receive 90 days' notice, but only for injuries caused by defective streets, sidewalks, or bridges.
Ky. Rev. Stat. §§ 49.120(1), 411.110
