Our experience in cases throughout the United States gives our advocates a thorough exposure to all facets of litigation.

The Lakin Law Firm was founded on the principle of representing working families. Our personal injury attorneys and support personnel come from industrial backgrounds, which provide them with a comprehensive understanding of the issues that working people face each day.

For over 30 years, our firm has been an advocate and a voice for injured people. That tradition continues under the leadership of Brad Lakin, who purchased the firm from his father in 2001 and has managed the firm since 1997.  The firm's growth has been particular solid since 2001.  The firm has a total of seventy employees including seventeen attorneys.

At The Lakin Law Firm, we pride ourselves on making a difference in the lives of our clients. We handle class action lawsuits, asbestos litigation, car accident injuries, workers' compensation, maritime injuries, railroad injuries, nursing home abuse and a variety of other injury matters.
