Marti E Thurman

As both a former accident victim and a former defense attorney for major insurance companies, Marti brings a rare and powerful dual perspective to every personal injury case she handles. She knows firsthand what it feels like to be injured through no fault of your own - and she knows exactly how insurance carriers work behind the scenes to minimize the compensation victims deserve. This insight allows her to anticipate defense tactics before they occur and to build strategic, evidence-driven cases that maximize recovery for the people she represents.

A proven trial attorney with a strong record of success, Marti is known for her unwavering commitment to her clients. She provides every client with attentive, compassionate, and highly skilled representation while fighting relentlessly to obtain the full compensation needed to rebuild their lives. Whether negotiating a settlement or trying a case before a jury, Marti's focus never changes: protecting the injured and ensuring they are treated fairly, respectfully, and with dignity.

Raised in the farm country near Bowling Green, Kentucky, Marti developed the grit, work ethic, and determination that defines her practice today. She earned her undergraduate and law degrees from the University of Louisville, graduating magna cum laude from the Louis D. Brandeis School of Law, where she also contributed to the Journal of Family Law. She began her legal career defending large insurance companies before transitioning to a plaintiff-focused practice in Evansville - an experience that reinforced her passion for helping seriously injured individuals secure the compensation they need and deserve. Marti considers it a privilege to deliver the life-changing news that a case has resolved in her client's favor and that their physical, emotional, and financial needs will finally be met.

Marti also brings a unique and valuable dimension to her practice as a Certified Clinical Research Professional, with extensive experience in the development, testing, and approval of new drugs and medical devices. This scientific and regulatory background strengthens her ability to evaluate complex injury cases - particularly those involving pharmaceuticals, medical devices, product safety, and adverse medical outcomes. Clinical research professionals appreciate Marti's fluency in regulatory standards, study design, safety monitoring, and device/medication risk assessment, which allows her to communicate effectively with experts and understand the technical aspects that often determine case outcomes.

When she's not advocating for clients, Marti is active in her community and enjoys supporting her children, Emily and Tyler, in their many activities. She is also a longtime member of Louisville’s Southeast Christian Church.
