Mr. Buckman represented a woman who was struck by an automobile when crossing the street. At issue on appeal was whether Mr. Buckman convinced the jury to award his client too much money. The appellate court agreed with Mr. Buckman and allowed the client to keep the money awarded. The opinion is a quick read and provides an interesting view back in time.

Buckman & Farris, PSC was established by founding partners J.D. Buckman Jr. and Eric G. Farris. Eric Farris originated the Kentucky Retired Teachers Association (KRTA) "Legaline" in 1991 (an "800" telephone line providing legal advice and documents to the 26,000 KRTA members). Mr. Buckman, a former Kentucky Attorney General, was the eponym for Buckman Street in downtown Shepherdsville, KY.

I have worked with Eric Farris in a professional capacity for over twenty years. Eric is one of the most insightful, professional and ethical attorneys I know. As a fellow attorney, I can always count on Eric, Joe and the team at Buckman Farris & Mills to provide solid advice and responsive service to their clients. I frequently refer clients to Buckman Farris & Mills.

Eric Farris accepted a retainer for a case re a fraudulent lien filed by a contractor. He does NOT know the real estate law he touted, took the money, THEN found out he couldn't recoup attorney fees from the other party.....which meant a court case was a no go, for either party...
claimed he "negotiated " a settlement with the title company to escrow the disputed amount "I did you a solid on this!!" (it was standard practice that ALL title companies do, and any real estate attorney SHOULD know) kept the retainer, THEN notifies me he is "dropping the case" and had the audacity to send a bill for

I've wasted several thosands on this lawyer. Going thru a difficult divorce and custody battle. Amber never stood up for me in court. Seemed like she just wanted to agree with the other lawyer. My case went to trial and i changed lawyers asap!!! i highly recommend christy shircliff. I would have evidence to use in court and amber would tell me just to be quiet and see what the judge says, but not once did she send the evidence to the judge, therefore i looked bad to the judge. I wouldnt recommend this law firm to anyone!!! please dont waste your time. I dont feel like my case would have went to

Amber Jones is the worst lawyer anyone could ever ask for. She was working with the prosecutors to basically put me in jail for no reason. She was telling me I will have to go to a trial. As if I murdered someone or something. I was almost about to go to jail until I fired her then as soon as I got a new lawyer my case was dismissed. She was a nightmare! She never let me know anything. Just the worst people u have to watch out. A bad lawyer like her can end you up behind bars.
