Rachelle Murray

Rachelle Murray was called to the Bar in 2013. She attended law school at the University of Windsor and graduated in 2012 with a Juris Doctor degree.

Prior to attending law school, Rachelle graduated with distinction from York University, receiving a B.A. (HONS) degree in Criminology.

Rachelle has always had a passion for advocacy, and that is evident in her daily practice of passionately fighting with insurance companies for every last penny of her clients’ entitlements. Starting her career as an articling student at Grillo Law back in 2012, Rachelle explored her passion for advocacy by spending several days a week in court fighting contested motions, with some the decisions she argued being cited. Rachelle has now built a strong and very successful practice of her own and has been with the firm ever since.

Rachelle specializes and has a wealth of experience in several types of personal injury cases including motor vehicle accidents, wrongful death claims, slip and falls, long term disability claims, assaults, etc. Rachelle has experience with both tort third party liability claims as well as accident benefits claims when it comes to MVAs. She has argued successful hearings before the LAT and has carriage of very serious catastrophic injury claims. She has done extensive training and seminars involving the new catastrophic designation rules and guidelines and is well versed with all of the criteria.

Rachelle successfully argued and won a catastrophic impairment designation hearing for her client in March 2026, increasing her client’s available attendant care/medical and rehabilitation limits from $65,000 to 1 million. This was a criteria 8 hearing with 3 marked impairment ratings which is extremely rare to successfully argue at the LAT since the newer CAT rules. Rachelle successfully argued that her client had sustained a level 4 marked impairment in the social functioning sphere as a result of the accident, and so she was deemed to be catastrophically impaired.
