< Back to All Attorneys

Andrew’s childhood was shaped by the legal world. His mother, JoAnn Coleman, is a former District Court Judge, and his father, Lee Coleman, is a personal injury lawyer. Conversations around the house would often revolve around legal work and case facts – topics that didn’t interest Andrew much during adolescence. However, as he continued into adulthood, Andrew discovered that the legal industry was becoming more and more captivating.

Although increasingly intrigued by the practice of law, Andrew initially decided to embark on a path different from his parents and graduated from Western Kentucky University with a degree in Accounting. At the end of his undergraduate experience, however, he realized he wouldn’t find fulfillment in an Accounting career. Therefore, Andrew changed course and enrolled in Northern Kentucky University Chase College of Law. During his time at Chase, he participated in a mock hearing and found his passion for trial law. He also completed an internship for the Kentucky Department of Public Advocacy. Through these experiences, he saw how his future in the legal industry could impact lives and create real change, which reinforced his desire to be a trial attorney.

Andrew graduated from law school in 2017, completed and passed the Kentucky Bar Examination, and then launched his career as a lawyer working at Hughes & Coleman. In his years as an attorney, he has witnessed the underhanded tactics insurance companies use to coerce injured victims into taking a lower settlement than they deserve. Far too often, the initial insurance offer barely accounts for the personal loss that a client currently feels, and it certainly doesn’t project or account for the additional loss they will have to manage for the remainder of their life.

Andrew knows the importance of digging deeper into a client’s story to understand the full scope of how an injury has impacted them. While the insurance company may only see an injured victim as a computer-generated settlement amount, Andrew sees the mother and the impact an injury has on her life.

Andrew is motivated each day by being part of a team with a goal to constantly push itself to do what is best for its clients. Being of service to others is the greatest pleasure in his life, tied only with being a husband and a father.

Oftentimes, the clients Andrew serves are experiencing some of the greatest challenges they’ve ever faced. These individuals are left to pick up the pieces and try to get back to the life they had prior to their wreck. He is thankful each day he gets to work at a personal injury law firm that advocates for victims and comforts those in vulnerable situations.

In addition to his passion for helping injured victims, Andrew loves God and his family. He enjoys spending nights and weekends with his wife and daughters, as well as spending weekdays and weekends with his parents, brothers, and extended family members. He is proud of the faith-filled life he lives and looks forward to helping injured individuals alongside the Hughes & Coleman team for many years to come.
