Posted by Ernie | October 06, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Death

A consummate professional and very thorough

Joe Lapham represented our family in 2009 after our son, Quinton, transitioned due to a traffic accident. As you may imagine, this was a tough time for our family; our emotions were all over the place. Joe handled this difficult scenario with grace and gentleness. He saw us through this difficult ...time; he was patient while we were impatient and edgy. Joe is a consummate professional and very thorough as he saw our case to fruition. We strongly recommend Joe Lapham as an attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
