From its first day back in 1948, Lenahan & Dempsey was formed to be a different kind of law firm.
Founded by John R. Lenahan, Sr., and William J. Dempsey, the firm was created to protect the rights of individuals. The Firm was never shy about taking on big corporations or insurance companies when the rights of a client were at stake.
We are Here to Serve You
Dedication to the law and our clients has led to tremendous growth. Lenahan & Dempsey is now one of, if not the largest personal injury law firm in Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania devoted to protecting the rights of the seriously injured. With a staff of over 50 talented individuals, we maintain offices across our practice area. We are also available for hospital, nursing home or home visits if needed.
Resources
With a firm our size come important resources such as medical consultants as well as access to a nation-wide network of consultants in fields ranging from Architecture to Zoology. We also maintain a large in-house support staff.
We Represent Seriously Injured Clients
At Lenahan & Dempsey, we represent seriously injured individuals in all types of personal injury cases. We are frequently the law firm other lawyers and law firms turn to for assistance when going up against a large corporation or insurance company.
Members of our firm are often called upon to lecture at legal conferences, teaching other law firms intricacies involved in highly complicated laws or trial practices.
