Kryste Harper is a dedicated and compassionate personal injury attorney, whose practice focuses on serious personal injury and wrongful death cases, in addition to property damage insurance claims for losses such as those caused by fires and hurricanes. 

Prior to joining IAH, Kryste practiced at prominent litigation firms in both Baton Rouge and New Orleans, where she handled a wide range of personal injury and wrongful death claims, as well as first-party and third-party commercial and residential property damage claims. She has extensive litigation experience handling cases throughout Louisiana and Texas in both state and federal courts, and she has represented some of the nation’s largest insurance carriers as both plaintiff and defendant. This invaluable experience on both sides of the courtroom gives her the unique ability to see the issues from different angles and enables her to anticipate her clients’ needs. 

Kryste received her Bachelor of Arts degree in English with a minor in Speech Communications from Louisiana State University in 1997, where she attended school on a full academic scholarship from the Teagle Foundation. She received her law degree from The Paul M. Hebert Law Center at Louisiana State University in 2001. She was admitted to the Louisiana State Bar in 2001 and the Texas State Bar in 2009.
