Car & Truck Wrecks

Wrecks are the heart of our practice.

A wreck turns ordinary life upside down in a second. Then come the adjuster's calls, the medical bills, the missed work, and a lot of questions nobody seems to answer. Answering them is our job.

  1. STEP 01

    Call the office.

    Tell us what happened. We'll talk it through with you and explain what comes next.

  2. STEP 02

    Our wreck team goes to work.

    Michelle, Kim, and Hailey gather your records, deal with the insurance companies, and keep you informed as your claim moves forward.

  3. STEP 03

    If they won't pay fairly, we go to court.

    Your case isn't referred out to another firm. We try cases ourselves.

Our commitment

Your case stays here.

Many injury claims settle. When one shouldn't, because the insurance company won't pay what it's worth, we don't hand your case off to another firm. We take it to trial ourselves.

The people who'll walk you through it

Our Personal Injury Division works alongside Brad Teeters and Brandon May on every wreck case.

  • Kimberly ScottPersonal Injury Paralegal & Office Administrator
  • Hailey CaudillPersonal Injury Case Manager

Free consultations

Consultations on personal injury cases are free. Call the office and tell us what happened.

No fee unless we win

On contingency fee cases, you don't pay an attorney's fee unless we win.

Contingency fees are charged only if there is a recovery. Clients may still be responsible for court costs and case expenses regardless of outcome. Fee arrangements are explained in a written agreement.

Our Attorneys

Two partners. One hometown.

Both partners grew up in Paintsville. Both raised their families here. Every case that comes through our door is handled with that in mind.

Brandon May

  • Raised in Paintsville
  • Co-founded the firm in 2016
  • Admitted in Kentucky & West Virginia

I was drawn to the law because it challenges the mind. Every case is a puzzle, and the work lies in taking the law and the facts and fitting them together until they tell a clear, compelling story. That pursuit is what I love most about this profession.

Paintsville is my home. It's where I was raised and where my wife and I are raising our family. Since co-founding Teeters & May in 2016, I've represented clients across Eastern Kentucky in personal injury, property, and criminal matters, from the trial courtroom through appeal.

If there's one thing you should know before you call, it's this: I won't make promises I can't keep. The one promise I will make is that I'll bust my ass to get you the best outcome possible. And I've surrounded myself with the finest team I could find to help make that happen.

The people who walk through our door aren't strangers. They're the folks I see at the ballgame, at church, and in line at the grocery store. I'm going to live in this town long after your case is over, so I handle every case knowing I'll still be looking my neighbors in the eye.

Brad Teeters

  • U.S. Army veteran
  • Nearly two decades on wreck cases
  • Raised in Paintsville

Paintsville is where I grew up and where my wife and I raised our family. Before I ever practiced law, I proudly served my country in the United States Army, and the discipline and sense of duty I learned there still shape how I work every day.

For nearly two decades, I've dedicated my practice to people injured in car and truck wrecks. For several years I practiced on my own, with Michelle Bailey-Wells at my side as my paralegal. Together, the two of us laid the foundation that Teeters & May would later be built on. When Brandon joined me, we set out to build what we believe is one of the finest car wreck practices in Eastern Kentucky.

I've spent my career across the table from the big insurance companies. I know how they value a claim, where they cut corners, and what it takes to make them pay what a case is truly worth.
