Jennifer Chamberlain has not always wanted to be a personal injury lawyer in Denver. To the contrary, Jennifer grew up believing she was going to become a doctor because she was fascinated with medicine. Whenever she visited her grandmother, a nurse practitioner, Jennifer would borrow a new medical text book and memorize the , however, she also had a penetrating fear of needles. Once she was old enough to recognize that practicing medicine would most certainly involve needles, becoming a doctor was out of the question.. Fortunately, she had a backup plan. As a headstrong adolescent, Jennifer was often told she would make a great attorney. Listening to friends and family, she decided she wanted to practice law. Accordingly, Jennifer applied to and was accepted by Eastern Illinois University. Her path to the legal world was almost put on hold, however, when she was involved in a tragic accident shortly after graduating high school.. Just days after her 18th birthday, Jennifer was a passenger in a vehicle involved in a head-on collision at 70 miles per hour. Her entire body was thrown violently forward, fracturing her back and ribs. Her left foot was severely severed, requiring emergency surgery to reattach it. When she regained consciousness in the emergency room days later, Jennifer was told she would never walk normal again and would not be able to leave for college in the fall.. Jennifer, determined to prove the doctors wrong, committed herself to a rigorous treatment regimen. She spent the next three months undergoing various forms of treatment. Toward the end of the summer, doctors recommended that she continue treating at home where she had a network of friends and family supporting her recovery. Demonstrating her headstrong personality once again, Jennifer elected to continue treating while furthering her education in Charleston, Illinois.. Jennifer’s freshman year was extremely challenging because her therapy demanded so much, both physically and emotionally. One year after the accident, Jennifer finally felt as though her recovery had plateaued.  Hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills later, Jennifer settled her claim with the liability carrier without the assistance of an attorney.. She believed she was coming out ahead by not retaining a personal injury lawyer. At the time, she assumed an attorney would settle her case for the same amount, thereby leaving her with less compensation for her medical bills, pain and suffering, and future treatment. Unfortunately, Jennifer had no idea how the legal processes worked.  She did not understand the importance of underinsured motorist coverage, medical payments coverage, or the “made whole” doctrine.. Fast forward a few years and Jennifer ended up attending law school at the University of Illinois, College of Law. While she was still unsure what lawyers actually did, she believed she would find out in law school.  In the three years Jennifer spent in Champaign, she learned that lawyers did a lot of different things. While she thought she had figured out her life when she embarked on this path, she realized that deciding to be an attorney was really just the beginning.. After graduating law school, Jennifer began evaluating what area of law she was interested in practicing. To Jennifer, there was no point in doing something if she did not feel strongly about it. It was at that moment when her fascination with the medical world came full circle. She enjoys reading medical records and learning about various treatments and procedures. Jennifer realized the only area of law she belonged was in personal injury law.. Jennifer’s path is unique because she truly understands what her clients are going through. She is empathetic and passionate about not only helping injured people receive compensation, but also helping them through a very difficult time in their lives. Years after her tragic accident, Jennifer is not afraid to admit she made a mistake by not retaining an experienced personal injury lawyer. She still feels pain on a regular basis.. She still needs physical therapy and will likely need surgery at some point. Unfortunately, the settlement money is long gone. Jennifer did not prepare for the long term impact of her injuries. Jennifer hopes her story can help others avoid making the same mistake. Since being admitted to practice law in the state of Colorado, she has made it her goal to become the best personal injury lawyer in Denver. She only handles cases in which she believes a person was injured and will receive greater compensation with her help. To Jennifer, the settlement amount does not matter much if the injury victim does not see any of it, precisely why estimating the value of a case is relatively meaningless.. Jennifer does not think of her clients as a percentage or dollar amount. She sees them as victims who were subject to someone else’s negligence. No one would voluntarily trade their health and well being for any amount of money because no dollar figure will ever accurately reflect the pain and suffering they endure. Being a personal injury lawyer in Denver is Jennifer’s job, but she chooses this profession because she cares.

A large portion of my practice also focuses on litigation and appeals involving employment law, and more specifically the defense of police officers, sheriffs, and governmental officials in disciplinary actions across Colorado in state and federal courts, and administrative tribunals.

I grew up in New York City. I decided to become a lawyer after I had a bad experience of with an attorney. I was young when a family friend referred me to a lawyer who seemed to want to help. It turned out they didn’t, and I could never get in touch with them. It was a difficult process and it ended up hurting me. I realized I could do a better job than that. I pursued a career in the law, vowing to do good work for my clients.. I thought I would go into corporate law, but realized I wouldn't be helping any one and I later fell in love with trial law. The judges at one of my trial law competitions in school asked me to join their new firm when I graduated. It happened to be a personal injury firm and I have been practicing personal injury law ever since. Along the way, in my ten plus years as an attorney, I represented the insurance companies in personal injury cases. Trying multiple defense cases.. I know where the Insurance companies are coming from and I can explain to my clients how the insurance companies work. A lot of clients, when they come through my door are broken. They have been through a lot and the insurance companies are bullying them. They dont know what to do. They come to me to even the score. That is what I  aim to do for my clients. I want my clients to know they are working with someone who has their back. I want to bring them back to a position of power.. In 2015 and 2016, I was named one of the top 40 trial attorneys under 40 by the National Trial Lawyers Association..

If you ask Sean why he does personal injury work, this is the story he tells: "You know, I guess I’ve been picking fights with bullies since I was a kid. I was riding the bus home one day in middle school, and I saw another boy picking on someone about half his size. So, I stood up and told him what I thought of what he was doing. When we got off at our stop, he made it clear to me that we were going to have a fight about it. He was about a head taller than me. I don’t think I won, but I did get him to go away and leave us alone. That was a scary moment for me. But I’ve always been glad I spoke up.". About 20 years later, Sean is picking fights to help people who’ve been hurt due to the irresponsible acts of others. He’s accepted clients who were rejected by multiple other lawyers, brought their cases to trial, and won against long odds. He’s advised his clients to reject unjust settlement offers from some of the world’s largest and most powerful companies and forced those companies to pay far more than they said they would. In 2017, he helped a single mom who was permanently injured get justice from one of the largest grocery store chains in the country. The company offered only $250,000. Sean and his team obtained a jury verdict of $1.77 million. The case settled for $2.1 million after Sean and his team asked the court to add interest and costs and to increase the damages caps.. Sean’s willingness to fight means his clients often don’t have to.

That company now offers Sean’s other clients fairer settlements.. Sean and his team help people who have been injured in car, bike, vehicle vs. pedestrian, motorcycle, and truck accidents; people injured because of negligent property design, property cleaning, or property maintenance; people injured by dangerous products of all different categories; and people with a multitude of other types of personal injury claims.. Sean has also dedicated himself to helping improve the chances of personal injury victims throughout Colorado. He has accepted multiple invitations to speak about trial techniques at statewide meetings of the Colorado Trial Lawyers’ Association and other groups. He has testified in favor of fairer personal injury laws at the Colorado State Legislature. He loves working with other personal injury lawyers to help their clients achieve full justice, whether it’s talking through complex issues over the phone, sharing data about defense “expert” witnesses, or joining trial teams on tough cases as co-counsel.. But our job isn’t just about the results – our clients have often lost so much more than just the cost of their medical bills or the wages they couldn’t earn because they were hurt. Everyone at Dormer Harpring strives to live a balanced, full life because that’s what allows us to empathize with what our clients are going through. For Sean, the most important things in life are family, the mountains, and music. Sean was born and raised here in Colorado. He cherishes spending time with his wife and their dog and two cats. He loves to do just about anything in the mountains, from rock climbing, mountain biking, and skiing, to fly fishing, hiking, backpacking, and camping. He enjoys riding and working on his motorcycle.

I have experience in many areas of law. Today I focus primarily on personal injury law. My true talents lie in being able to analyze a case at the early stages of litigation and being able to guide my clients toward an educated and gainful resolution. Having practiced law at an insurance defense firm, I am able to offer solid insight that is pragmatic and realistic to help counsel my clients. I am a certified mediator and a graduate of Chapman University Law School.

I have been practicing law in Colorado since 1996.  I fight hard for my clients, and fervently believe in what I do.  I have never been a prosecutor, and am a defender to my core.  When in law school, I interned with the Colorado Public Defender's Office.  I chose to go into private practice because I do better with fewer cases, and can devote myself more fully to a case. I have significant experience litigating personal injury cases and take great satisfaction in obtaining strong outcomes for my clients. I am always happy to answer questions, and if I can't help, I'll try to refer you to someone who can. Please feel free to call me.

My philosophy is that an injured individual should never have to pay unreasonably high legal fees to receive high quality legal representation. I pride myself in communicating with my clients and making sure that they can always contact me and know what's going on with their cases.

I believe the only way to secure any meaningful justice for someone is to be ready and willing to take his or her case to trial.  I only represent people I care about, trust and believe in.  I maintain a small caseload so I am ready, willing and able to go the distance for each of my clients.
