The Law Firm I was connected to did an amazing job of handling a case for me. They were great at communicating with me. They were great at communicating with me every step of the way. They helped me get treatment, and I was very pleased with the eventual settlement of the case. The Law Firm is the perfect mix of a small firm's personal attention with the resources of a large firm. They answered emails and calls immediately. He made it clear that my job was to get treatment and recover, and his job was to handle the case and deal with the insurance companies. I am so happy that I hired The Law Firm I was connected to help me. Thank you.






The Law Firm I was connected to has helped me with a life-altering ordeal. They have supported and guided me through my case to the very end. I thank them for helping at the lowest point in my life. They made sure I had everything I needed and deserved.

They truly care about you and work hard for you, making sure that you always feel comfortable and how they keep you updated on your situation with your case at all times. You never feel lost, and they don’t take too much time to answer your doubts. They will come to you if you need to! They always made me feel comfortable and important. I highly recommend them. They are good at what they do.
Sincerely, Patrician Jones






The Law Firm I was connected to was absolutely amazing. They fought for me every step of the way to get the settlement I needed. Kristen was the best person for me in my settlement. She reassured me even when I was going through tough times with the pain that I was in and felt hopeless. She made sure that my needs were taken care of and I was receiving proper medical help. She made it a point that if she had to reach out to my work to explain the situation with them she would do so that I maintained my job position. In my opinion she was outstanding and if I had to go through this whole ordeal again I'd want her by my side.

When building a case, you will have questions and concerns. From the moment you retain our services, you can expect your attorney to answer inquiries promptly. We take pride in our accessibility and pledge to provide legal services with the highest level of professionalism and integrity.

Every case is unique, and its value depends on the specific facts involved. During your free, no-obligation consultation, our experienced auto accident attorney team will explain how we’ve approached similar cases and the strategies we use to seek the maximum compensation possible.
There is no cost to hire Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer Attorneys upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, so you only pay if we successfully recover compensation for you. Our fee comes as a percentage of the amount recovered.
Most firms take 40–45% of your settlement. We take 33⅓%—and only 40% if your case goes to trial.
The timeline for resolving an car injury claim varies and often depends on the length of your medical recovery. In most cases, we wait until you have fully healed or reached maximum medical improvement before pursuing a settlement. This process can take several months or longer. Once your case is ready, a resolution may occur within weeks, though more complex cases can take significantly longer, sometimes even years.
At Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer, we prepare every case as if it will go to trial, supported by our experienced litigation team. While we have successfully tried many cases in court, most claims are resolved through thorough preparation and strategic negotiations before trial.
No. A free consultation is simply an opportunity to learn about your legal options with no obligation. It also allows our attorneys to review your situation and determine whether we’re a good fit to handle your case.
