Litigation and Disputes

FWWE represents businesses and individuals in a wide range of civil and commercial disputes in state and federal courts, in addition to alternative dispute resolution (e.g., arbitration) and administrative matters. Our work includes contract and business claims, construction disputes, real estate matters, personal injury, among other contested issues routinely handled by the firm. Our size and experience allow us to handle complex cases efficiently while maintaining practical focus and close contact with the lawyers handling your case. We prepare thoroughly, aim to resolve disputes sensibly, and are prepared to try cases when necessary to protect our clients’ interests.

Real Estate Transactions

FWWE is the premier title and closing agency in the region. We have proudly expanded our footprint across the Commonwealth of Kentucky while providing the same reliable services to our local clientele. We routinely handle residential, commercial and industrial real estate transactions, often coordinating with our Project Development practice area. As title insurance agents for Chicago Title Insurance Company for approximately fifty years, we work closely with our underwriters at Fidelity National Financial Services to resolve closing issues and protect all parties involved in the transaction. The FWWE Real Estate Transactions team is efficient, responsive, and ready to close your transaction. 

Commercial Law

FWWE’s attorneys have worked with businesses on commercial contracts in a broad range of industries, including commercial leasing, manufacturing, distribution, energy, financial, agricultural, and food manufacturing. Our approach is straightforward: clear terms, practical risk assessment, and value-driven guidance. We understand what mitigating risk can mean for your bottom line, and our experience in commercial contracts and dispute resolution makes us a trusted resource as you grow your business. 

Construction Law

FWWE assists owners, contractors, subcontractors, and professionals in drafting and negotiating contracts for a wide variety of projects, large and small. Our attorneys have handled contracts for large-scale projects in healthcare, hospitality, industrial, and other industries, including EPC agreements and P3 arrangements. We routinely work with standard form documents such as AIA and ConsensusDocs, and we have developed custom forms for use at all levels of your project. In addition, we advise on risk mitigation during construction, and we handle construction claims and related dispute resolution should issues arise.

Project Development

FWWE has expertise in large project development, from industrial to commercial, retail, and housing projects. We have worked on large-scale public projects, such as the Brent Spence Bridge and Mountain Parkway projects, and other public and private development, utility, conservation, and environmental projects. Our attorneys have extensive experience on both the public and private sides, including advising on significant public-private partnerships (P3) across the Commonwealth. Our team’s expertise in real estate, financing, construction contracting, and litigation comes together in this unique practice area to benefit our many public and private clients.

Personal Injury and Wrongful Death

FWWE’s litigation team and support staff serves as strong advocates to clients injured or killed in automobile accidents or as the result of negligence of others. Our attorneys take the fight to insurance companies, while providing the personal contact and touch that the advertising law firms do not provide. You will deal with an attorney at FWWE, not a call center. 

Probate and Estate Planning

FWWE assists individuals and families with comprehensive estate planning and probate administration throughout Kentucky. Our attorneys prepare wills, trusts, powers of attorney, advance directives, and other estate planning documents tailored to each client's unique circumstances and goals. We take time to understand your family dynamics, assets, and wishes to create practical plans that protect your legacy and minimize tax burdens where possible. When a loved one passes, we guide personal representatives and beneficiaries through the probate process with sensitivity and efficiency, handling estate administration from filing through final distribution. We understand that estate planning and probate work involves deeply personal concerns during important life transitions, and we provide clear guidance and responsive service to help families navigate these matters with confidence and peace of mind.
