Harper Law

“One of the ironies of life is that your search for legal representation will probably happen at a time when you are least able to conduct that search.

Six years ago I found myself looking for legal help, and after approaching several firms without any success, I found Harper Law. My case was important to me, and Ed Harper’s firm took it. This was the beginning of a successful legal relationship that continues to this day.

Even though that accident was a small one, I was kept informed at every step of the way and there’s no doubt that we had a much more favorable outcome than I would have had otherwise.

In the intervening years, I’ve had several other incidents come up, and every time Ed and his associates have demonstrated sound judgment in taking the proper steps at the proper time, seeking my opinions and input along the way and showing considerable patience with me as we worked through the slow legal process.

Never have they given me unrealistic expectations, an ethic which reflects both the knowledge they have of Washington State law and the maturity that comes from experience. Integrity is something you either have or don’t have, and integrity at Harper law is one of their benchmarks.

I have learned that I can count on everyone in Ed’s firm to be realistic and candid, honest and fair, even with the opposition. It doesn’t hurt that they are also nice, hard-working people, too.

If realistic, honest, fair, candid, mature, patient and knowledgeable are qualities you value in a law firm, I’d say you’ve found that firm in Ed Harper Law.”

“Recently, my daughter, Sierra, sought Ed Harper’s services after she was rear-ended by a taxi in Seattle. She wasn’t seriously injured, but she did have to take time off from work. And her medical bills for chiropractic and massage totaled several thousand dollars! All she wanted from the taxi’s insurance company was for them to pay her medical bills, but they said they would only pay a portion of them. So we encouraged Sierra to talk with an attorney.

The first one she spoke with told her that the case wasn’t worth his time. But my wife and I had met Ed Harper at the Bothell Chamber of Commerce, so we asked him if he would take a look at Sierra’s case. After doing so, he decided that he could help her. Well, it turns out that not only was he able to convince the insurance company that they should pay ALL of Sierra’s medical bills, he also convinced them that they should pay for her time off work and school, and for “pain and suffering” as well! Needless to say, she was ecstatic with the outcome of Ed’s hard work, persistence and expertise.

Ed Harper can provide assistance to others like us in a time of physical, emotional, and financial need – a time when an injured person needs ethical and compassionate advice from an attorney they can trust.”

“Ed (Harper) is a man of integrity & honesty. He is easy to talk with & not only
listens, but hears what you have to say & acts on it to the best of his abilities.
It is a privilege to not only have had him as a counselor & attorney, but to now
count him as friend. He’s a good man to have on your side.”

“I was employed by Ed Harper in February 1996 and worked for him for two years. While I have more than 40 years experience in the legal field and have worked with many well-known and well-respected lawyers in the Seattle area, one of whom is now a King County Superior Court judge and another who is now a Washington State Supreme Court Justice, I found Ed to be the nicest attorney with whom I have ever worked. Ed is an honest and ethical lawyer who genuinely cares for each of his clients on a personal level. I have the utmost confidence that anyone seeking legal assistance from Ed Harper would be represented with integrity and compassion.”

I have referred friends needing legal assistance to Ed because he truly cares about his clients. I am always confident that he will do his very best to help each of them to successfully resolve their legal problems. His judgment and common sense regarding legal issues is outstanding and his compassion for injured individuals is exceptional. Bottom line… Ed Harper is not only a fine attorney; he is truly a good man.”

“Ed: I just wanted to thank you so much for everything. I don’t think that I would have had the courage or persistence to see my claim through without your encouragement. Thank you for caring about me and being so personable so as to help me navigate through everything. You have been so patient with me. So, thank you again! Karli”

“Dear Mr. Harper: We want to thank you for all the hard work you did trying to make a case for us. We are saddened that there was no success in eliminating the dangerous conditions causing the death of our son. We really appreciate all you did, and most of all what a kind and compassionate person you are. We will certainly recommend you to anyone we encounter who needs a good attorney.”

“I write to give thanks for the moment you took out of your life to represent someone in need of help. I will forever remember the intersecting of our paths, all the comforting support, and the insight you shared. For all the dignity and integrity that I saw in you, I can never repay or say enough good things to thank you. I am privileged and honored to have been represented by a brother of your caliber. You are forever in my heart and in my prayers. I would also like to say thank you to your wonderfully caring, comforting staff, for their patience and tolerance in my time of need. You are truly blessed to have spirits as dedicated and honorable as Paige and Susan standing at your side. I can never thank you enough for all of your help! May God bless all of you.”
