Motor vehicle accidents of any sort can be extremely serious. You may not only face expensive property damage, but also having to recover from injuries ranging from broken bones to spinal cord trauma. While money cannot restore your health, compensation through a settlement or verdict can make recovery easier.

Financial support can let you focus more on getting well than on making ends meet and paying your hospital care bills. Our attorneys are ready to fight for your right to just compensation after a car, truck or motorcycle accident caused by someone else’s negligence.

Harper & Peterson PLLC, is a firm focusing exclusively on personal injury, with a particular emphasis on trial-readiness. Many claims settle for substantial amounts in pretrial negotiations because our opponents know about our strong reputation in the courtroom. We help clients who are injured through:

• Auto accidents. This may mean a car accident with a personal vehicle or an accident involving a taxi, rideshare car or service vehicle such as a small shuttle.
• Motorcycle accidents. These are among the most serious accidents because there is such a size disparity between vehicles and motorcycles. Bikers also have much less protection from injury in a crash.
• Truck accidents. Operators of commercial vehicles like semi trucks and 18-wheelers have an added responsibility to drive safely because of the immense size and weight of their vehicles. Federal and state regulations spell out the duties of a trucking company and a truck driver, including load balancing, mandatory inspections and accurate logging of a driver’s time on the road.

The members of our team are skilled negotiators and may be able to resolve your issue without going to court. However, with our experienced trial attorneys building strong cases, taking a case before a judge and jury is always an option if it becomes necessary. Bill Harper and Paul Peterson are board certified* by both the Minnesota State Bar and the National Board of Trial Advocacy as trial specialists and will use their skill on your behalf. We prepare every case as if it needs to go to trial.
