William J Lapham II

A huge dump truck class vehicle apparently accelerated through a stop sign and t-boned my truck. The case was made complicated due to the steady degenerative cascade of my injuries, which took time to create acute events. Nightmare! Life changing. Horrific pain. Much lost. Fast forwarding..., great legal advice, spot on it turns out. Helped navigate a complex case and supported me through the process. Settlement was excellent based on the adversarial gamesmanship of parties involved: Work Comp, insurance company, legal system. Definitely a life saver. Joe has integrity and is willing to take on a complex case.

I suffered a cervical spinal nerve injury, caused by a 25 ton truck that ran a red light. My injuries were rather complicated, as it took a year to finally find doctors who could figure out how to help me. In the meantime, the insurance company representing the trucking company that caused the acci...dent was hounding me to settle and downplaying my injuries. There is nothing worse than feeling like your world fell out from under you, while dealing with the most excruciating pain you've ever dealt with, and all the while having people who know very little about medical conditions calling and stressing you out. Thank God I was referred to Joe Lapham, PC for legal representation! Not only is Joe a person who truly cares for his clients, he's also quite knowledgable about medical conditions and the rehabilitation that goes into it. I am quite a good judge of character, and when I met with Joe the very first time about my injuries, I knew he was the person to represent me. Joe looks you in the eye and says he wants you to get better. That's the number one priority in these instances, because if you choose a quick-to-settle type of attorney or try to do it all yourself, chances are, the stress the insurance companies can put on some people can certainly set you into a tailspin. We were lucky enough to settle my case in mediation. Due to my complicated injuries and the fact that I'd been rear ended four years before this, my case could easily be misconstrued. Thankfully, Joe and his staff were patient and reassured me that the truth really does prevail, and that everything would work out fine. Luckily, we didn't go to trial. But, I know in my heart that Joe would have truly shined in the courtroom. He has a passion for helping injured people, and his intelligence and skill really do prove that he is the personal injury attorney I will always refer to those I care about.
