Seth Coomer, founder of Seth Coomer Attorney at Law in Lexington, Kentucky, has built his career around a singular commitment: advocating for individuals harmed by the carelessness of others. His practice centers on medical malpractice, personal injury, car accidents, trucking accidents and wrongful death claims, and every case he accepts reflects his dedication to representing plaintiffs rather than the institutions or insurers that so often oppose them.
For Mr. Coomer, the practice of law is inseparable from the practice of storytelling. He approaches each client's experience as a narrative that deserves to be heard clearly and persuasively, stripped of unnecessary complexity so that judges and juries alike can grasp both the harm suffered and the justice required. This philosophy – powerful, direct and human – has guided his approach since the day he was sworn into the bar.
Mr. Coomer represents clients throughout the Commonwealth of Kentucky, appearing before both state and federal courts and has secured millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts on behalf of injured Kentuckians. His courtroom dedication did not go unnoticed: in 2019, the Kentucky Trial Court Review, a respected publication tracking statewide jury trial statistics, named him one of the Commonwealth's "Most Prolific Trial Attorneys" of the year.
A proud son of Columbia, Adair County, Kentucky, where he grew up on a family farm, Mr. Coomer earned his Bachelor of Arts with honors from the University of Kentucky in 2012, majoring in history with a minor in philosophy, before returning to his alma mater for law school. He graduated from the University of Kentucky College of Law in 2015, where he served on the Moot Court Board and the Student Bar Association. He was licensed to practice law in Kentucky that same year.
An upstanding figure in the legal circle, Mr. Coomer maintains active membership in the Kentucky Bar Association, the Kentucky Justice Association, the American Association for Justice and the Fayette County Bar Association.
