Introduction
Anna Aleksander graduated cum laude from the University of Louisville School of Law in 2005, founded her own firm in 2008 just three years into practice, and has spent the years since earning recognition from national legal organizations across personal injury, family law, and criminal defense. Aleksander Law Office, PLLC operates from 436 S. 7th Street, Suite 202, on the second floor in Louisville, Kentucky 40203, reachable at (502) 589-0816. With 17 or more years of practice now behind her, Anna Aleksander continues to personally handle each case the office accepts, a commitment to direct attorney involvement that distinguishes her practice from larger firms where cases are passed between associates.
Her credentials span multiple dimensions. She is admitted to all Kentucky state courts and to the Federal Court for the Western District of Kentucky. The American Society of Legal Advocates named her to its Top 40 Under 40 in Kentucky list in 2014. The National Trial Lawyers recognized her among its Top 100 Trial Lawyers in 2020. Expertise designated her Best Divorce Lawyer in Louisville for 2021. The National Association of Personal Injury Attorneys recognized her as a Top 10 Personal Injury Attorney in the nation in 2022. These distinctions stretch across different practice fields, reflecting the breadth of her legal work rather than concentration in a single area.
Practice Areas
Personal Injury
The personal injury side of the practice covers car accidents, property damage claims, premises liability, slip and fall injuries, back injuries, uninsured driver accidents, traumatic brain injuries, truck accidents, drunk driving crash injuries, and child injuries.
Kentucky operates as a no-fault state, which means drivers carry Personal Injury Protection coverage providing at least $10,000 in immediate medical benefits regardless of who caused the accident. This structure allows injured drivers to receive initial treatment through their own insurance while fault disputes proceed separately. For clients who need to obtain a police report after a Kentucky accident, reports are available through Buycrash.com.
Kentucky law also provides a meaningful remedy when insurance companies act unreasonably. If an insurer denies a valid PIP claim without reasonable grounds, Kentucky law permits recovery of attorney fees and interest on top of the underlying benefits. That provision gives injured claimants additional leverage when carriers resist paying legitimate claims.
Personal injury cases are handled on contingency, with free consultations available.
Family Law
The family law practice covers divorce, child custody determinations, visitation arrangements, spousal support, child support, complex property division, post-decree modifications, and mediation services. Property division in divorce can become legally intricate when assets include business interests, retirement accounts, real estate, or debts accumulated across a long marriage. The firm handles the procedural and negotiation complexity across all of these family law categories.
Modifications are available when circumstances change materially after an original court order, such as a significant income shift or a parent’s relocation that affects custody logistics.
Criminal Defense
The criminal defense practice addresses felonies, misdemeanors, DUI charges, and traffic violations. Anna Aleksander represents clients facing the full range of criminal charges in Kentucky courts, including matters that carry the potential for serious consequences to employment, housing, immigration status, and professional licensing.
Attorney Profile
Anna Aleksander is the founder and sole attorney at the firm. She received her law degree from the University of Louisville in 2005 with cum laude honors, began practicing the same year, and opened Aleksander Law Office in 2008. Her decision to personally handle every case the office accepts reflects a practice philosophy built on direct client relationships rather than delegation to support staff or junior attorneys. She is admitted in all Kentucky state courts and in the Federal Court for the Western District of Kentucky, giving her clients access to both state and federal venues as needed.
Location and Service Area
The office is located at 436 S. 7th Street, Suite 202, Louisville, Kentucky 40203. The firm primarily serves Louisville and surrounding Kentucky areas, with particular depth in Jefferson County. Clients traveling to the downtown Louisville office have access to nearby parking and transit options in the central business district.
Client Focus
The firm’s personal injury practice runs on contingency, meaning clients pay no attorney fees unless a recovery is made. Free consultations are offered across all three practice areas. The fact that Anna Aleksander personally handles each case means clients interact with their actual attorney throughout the matter rather than being passed to staff or associates after the initial meeting. That structure tends to produce better communication and more consistent case management, particularly in multi-issue cases that touch on both injury claims and family law or criminal matters simultaneously.
FAQ
What is Kentucky’s no-fault insurance system and how does it affect my car accident claim?
Kentucky requires drivers to carry Personal Injury Protection insurance covering at least $10,000 in medical expenses and lost wages. Under the no-fault system, your own PIP coverage pays your immediate medical costs regardless of who caused the accident. You can step outside the no-fault system and pursue a claim against the at-fault driver once your medical expenses exceed $1,000 or your injury meets certain severity thresholds.
How do I get a copy of my police report after a Kentucky accident?
Kentucky police reports from most jurisdictions are available through Buycrash.com. The report typically documents witness information, officer observations, and preliminary fault determinations that can be important in insurance negotiations.
Can Anna Aleksander represent me in federal court?
Yes. She is admitted to the Federal Court for the Western District of Kentucky in addition to all Kentucky state courts, making federal venue available when claims warrant it.
Does the firm handle both the personal injury claim and the family law case if I am going through both simultaneously?
The firm handles personal injury, family law, and criminal defense, so clients dealing with overlapping legal issues do not need to coordinate between separate law offices for each matter.
What happens if my insurance company wrongfully denies my PIP claim?
Kentucky law allows recovery of attorney fees and interest when an insurer denies PIP benefits without reasonable grounds. That provision provides a remedy beyond simply recovering the denied benefits and creates a financial incentive for carriers to handle claims appropriately.
