About Wayne Thomas Bunch
Wayne Thomas Bunch Sr. built a steady legal career rooted in Kentucky’s courts. He entered the profession after completing undergraduate and law studies at the University of Kentucky in the early 1960s. His academic record includes a Bachelor of Science in Commerce and an LL.B.; his law degree is also recorded under the Juris Doctor designation.
After finishing law school, Bunch moved into private practice and established a presence in local and federal courts. Over the years he has been admitted to practice before the Kentucky state courts, the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern and Western Districts of Kentucky, the U.S. Bankruptcy Courts for both federal districts of Kentucky, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. Those admissions reflect a practice that spans trial, bankruptcy, and appellate work.
His professional affiliations include membership in the Fayette County Bar Association. That connection ties him to the local legal community and to the bar activities of the county. He has maintained ties to the association while continuing his work at his firm.
