Over 100 Families Benefitted

Thank you for your generous donations to the Food Pantry of Carroll County. You will recall that in honor of Ruth Baxter’s 30 years of service to the Company, LMICK raised money in her name for the Food Pantry, a local organization impacting her community and in which she is highly involved. With your contributions and LMICK’s, just over $7,200.00 was contributed. Ruth and the Food Pantry are so appreciative. Ruth shared that the Food Pantry spends $72 to feed a family of 4 for a week. Your contributions will feed over 100 families and can sustain the Food Pantry’s work for a month. Ruth described the impact as “tremendous.” While the LMICK match campaign has concluded, you can still donate to the Food Pantry. Send a check to P.O. Box 265, Carrollton, KY 41008 and denote Ruth Baxter in the memo line.

To Our Policyholders:

We are pleased to have served you, our Policyholders, for another year. I consider it an honor and a privilege to write this message each year to share a bit about your Company, Lawyers Mutual Insurance Company of Kentucky (LMICK). I often think of lawyers as superheroes – and in many ways they are just that as they pull off amazing feats to help a plaintiff with serious injuries; defend a corporation against “bet the farm” litigation; secure a not guilty verdict for a wrongly accused criminal defendant; and on and on. In this job, I am reminded, however, that these superheroes are not infallible. Yes, Virginia, lawyers do make mistakes and when they do LMICK is always ready to assist you.
