Associate announcement

Auger Hollingsworth Welcomes Chris Karpacz

November 26, 2025

Auger Hollingsworth Accident & Injury Lawyers is pleased to announce the addition of Chris Karpacz to its team of personal-injury litigators.

Chris brings a broad and distinctive background to the plaintiff’s side of personal-injury law. A 2010 graduate of Western Law, he was called to the Ontario bar in 2011. After completing his articles at a plaintiff-side boutique firm, Chris spent eight years defending insurers and working in-house at a global insurance company, before transitioning back to the plaintiff side for the past five years.

This unique blend of defence and plaintiff-side experience gives Chris a deep understanding of how insurance companies operate, positioning him to advocate effectively for injured Ontarians.

Chris manages a diverse practice area—motor-vehicle accidents, slip/trip-and-falls, occupiers’ liability, municipal negligence and product liability. He is known for combining a collaborative approach with fierce advocacy, and for appreciating the importance of achieving fair, client-centred outcomes.

Auger Hollingsworth Accident & Injury Lawyers is delighted to welcome Chris into the fold. His insights, depth of experience and commitment to clients align perfectly with the firm’s mission to deliver exceptional legal advocacy for seriously injured Ontarians.
