Mr. Lawn focuses his practice on representing individuals and families who have suffered serious injuries or death as a result of another’s wrongful acts. After spending the first seven years of his practice defending physicians in medical malpractice actions, Mr. Lawn has, since 1996, dedicated himself to representing injured victims and their families. He has secured for his clients many verdicts and settlements in excess of one million dollars in a variety of cases, including medical malpractice, motor vehicle accidents, defective products, and workplace accidents.

A verdict he received for a mentally challenged man injured by medical malpractice was the third highest reported personal injury verdict in Pennsylvania in 2002. Within the past year, Mr. Lawn has secured a medical malpractice arbitration verdict of greater than $9.7 million for a Central Pennsylvania child left with serious neuro-sensory impairments from a delayed diagnosis of bacterial meningitis, and a $7 million pre-trial settlement in a medical malpractice death case. He also recently recovered more than $1.3 million for the widow and young son of a Lehighton PA man killed by a drunken driver who was served by a bar after the driver was already drunk, and achieved a settlement of $1.4 million for a man who suffered serious leg injuries in a fall on ice at an apartment complex.
