After suffering an bad accident at work, i was feeling scared and I didn’t know who to turn too. My cousin Kim call Mr. William J. Lightfoot who helps and provided step by step in securing worker’s compensation to cover all medical expenses related to the accident. Mr. William made sure that I was being taking care of from the doctors to my therapy. He worked to secure a settlement for my injury that was agreed to by all parties. Mr. William made me feel like an important client and I did not have to worry about anything. Throughout the whole process Mr. William was able to achieve the most favorable outcome every step of the way.

William Lightfoot was the first to respond to my inquiry for a WC lawyer. I had just gone through a year of treatment and was being sent back to a lesser paying job. Not only did William jump right in, thoroughly learn about my case and myself and make sure that I received all of my supplemental payments on time….but when it was time to start closing out the case he fought a like a warrior to make sure that I received everything that I was entitled to. He always knew what the WC company would try to do and he always headed them off at the pass. He literally has a sixth sense and his defense of his client is top tier. I highly recommend William and his company.

Hired Attorney William J. Lightfoot

After suffering an accident at work, I sought legal counsel to determine what rights I had in seeking treatment for my injury. After the more familiar names in injury law refused to help me, I found William J. Lightfoot, who was very willing to help me. Mr. Lightfoot quickly advised me of my options and provided step by step help in securing worker's compensation to cover all medical expenses related to the accident. I had no idea how to navigate the worker's compensation process in DC, but William was very knowledgeable. Specifically, he helped me secure physical therapy until I had reached the maximum level of utility. After that, he worked to secure a settlement for my injury that was agreed to by all parties. William always responded to my messages in a timely manner and made me feel like an important client and not just another case. Throughout the process, William was able to achieve the most favorable outcome every step of the way.

I sought representation after Workmen’s Comp informed me they will no longer pay for future medical for a work related foot injury. I was represented in a former personal injury case by William P. Lightfoot. From the beginning, Mr. Lightfoot instructed me to file documents with DC Employment Services that required filing within one year after the injury. It was my understanding, if the papers weren’t filed workmen’s comp could cancel my claim. For personal injury claims I highly recommend, William J. Lightfoot, he is educated on Workmen’s Comp procedures and will ensure you understand every step. He’s a nice guy!

I’ve known Bill Lightfoot for many years as a colleague and have been consistently impressed over the years with his command of the law in its current application, his attention to detail and the rigorous advocacy he deploys to obtain justice for his clients. I’m certain these characteristics serve his clients well in achieving excellent results in settlements and verdicts on their behalves.

Mr. William J. Lightfoot, Jr. is a young, hardly intelligent, competent and promising attorney who has an impressive understanding of the law and applies it with due diligence and prudence. He did a terrible job in helping me win my case with a monetary award that exceeded my expectations.
