When you or someone you care about has been injured, what happens next is critical. At Harper Grey, you’ll find the support you need to recover and the expertise to secure the compensation you deserve.

A personal injury is any injury sustained by a person due to negligence of another individual or organization. The impact of a personal injury can be multi-faceted. These injuries can impact yourself, your loved ones, as well as your personal and professional life. If you have suffered emotionally, physically or financially due to an injury, you deserve to be compensated.

Personal injuries are diverse and can range from auto accidents to dog bites to caretaker abuse. Most of the time, personal injury cases are settled without a formal lawsuit, but sometimes they go to trial. Most often cases are resolved through information settlement discussions or through mediation. Mediation is a middle ground between trial and a settlement where the two parties work together to resolve a case with the assistance of an independent third party.

We work cooperatively with all parties to settle your case for what you’re entitled to. If we can’t get what we think you deserve we will go to court for you. Our goal is always the same – to help improve the quality of your life after an accident and to help you get the compensation you deserve.

Our team is as empathetic as it is experienced, and our lawyers are connected and community-minded. We have worked with many of the experts whose opinions are required to properly present your claim. This builds credibility for your case and paves the way for getting your life back.

What are you entitled to?

When you have suffered a critical injury, Harper Grey will help you arrange the resources you need to recover while we work to arrive at a fair settlement.

We’ll start with a free consultation at our office, or at your home or care facility. We will then arrange access to the experts who are relevant to your case. These may include: forensic engineers, accountants and economists, vocational and education consultants, doctors, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, case planner, and other health care workers and rehabilitation, educational and general purpose support workers.

We will work cooperatively with your family, care team, insurers, and other involved parties until a settlement is reached. In some cases, we will fund specific care needs through a loan agreement until the matter has been resolved. We will fund all disbursements and will not receive payment of fees until the matter has been resolved.

 

Fees

Our fee is a percentage of your settlement. We do not get paid until a settlement is reached and paid. If we do not recover any money for you, we do not collect any fees. It’s that simple.

 

Disbursements

Disbursements are out-of-pocket expenses related to the investigation and development of your case; most are covered under the compensation you receive. For a person who has suffered a critical injury, disbursements can exceed $200,000 before the matter is resolved.

 

Financial Support

In some cases victims may need more care than they can afford while they wait for a settlement.

When this need is identified, Harper Grey may provide financial support in the form of a loan.
