When You've Been Hurt,We Fight Back.

“I rear-ended someone and actually thought I was the one who had a case — the other driver ran the light. State Farm offered me $12,000 and told me that was fair. James Hargrove took one look at the police report and the intersection camera footage and said we were going to do a lot better than that. We settled for $340,000 before trial. I would never have known to fight.”

“I fell from a ladder at work and my employer's workers' comp claim was giving me $800 a week. Sarah Chen found out that the ladder manufacturer had a recall that my employer ignored. We filed a separate product liability case and I ended up with almost $275,000 total — most of which my workers' comp would never have given me. Priya was incredible through the whole process.”

“My husband had a surgery that went wrong and the hospital kept saying it was a known risk. Dr. Webb — who is himself a doctor — went through every page of the surgical records and found something the hospital's own experts missed. When we went to mediation, the hospital's lawyers were not prepared for someone who could read those records like a physician. We got justice for my husband.”

“I slipped on ice in a Walmart parking lot and broke my ankle in three places. I assumed nothing could be done — it's winter in Chicago, ice happens. Turns out the parking lot had been identified as a drainage problem for years and they had internal reports about it. Hargrove's team got those reports in discovery and the case settled quickly after that.”

“We lost our son to a truck driver who fell asleep on the highway. The trucking company's lawyers were aggressive and dismissive. James Hargrove never flinched. He told us from day one that we were going to get justice, and he delivered. We can't bring our son back, but we can protect our grandchildren's future. Hargrove & Associates fought for our family like we were their family.”

“I was skeptical about lawyers in general — I thought they'd take most of the money and I'd see very little. Sarah Chen was completely transparent about the fee structure from day one. My case was a complicated one with a disputed red light, and she fought hard. I ended up with over $128,000 after fees, which was far more than I expected. I recommend this firm to everyone I know.”
