LEXINGTON, Ky. — October 2025
Peterson Law and Whiteford Taylor & Preston have announced a significant settlement on behalf of a Central Kentucky family injured in a Medical Malpractice case. Peterson Law’s Founding Partner Justin Peterson and Whiteford’s Kentucky Managing Partner Masten Childers III led the litigation team along with attorneys Sarah Cooley, Adam Havens and paralegal Jennifer Warren, securing one of the region’s largest medical malpractice recoveries to date.
“This result reflects our commitment to fighting for those whose lives are changed in an instant by medical negligence,” said Peterson. “Every client deserves powerful advocacy and personal care—values that drive everything we do.”
