Drew LaFramboise

“It is a privilege and honor to represent deserving clients as they seek justice and fairness through the litigation system. I am dedicated to tirelessly and creatively working to solve my clients’ most pressing and complex problems.”

Drew LaFramboise is an experienced litigator and problem-solver who has spent his entire career handling complex legal matters on behalf of individuals.

As a Principal in Joseph, Greenwald & Laake’s complex civil litigation department, Drew represents individuals in serious personal injury, product liability, civil rights, and wrongful death cases. Through the years, Drew has successfully resolved hundreds of complex cases arising from fires and explosions, product defects, dangerous medical devices and pharmaceuticals, professional negligence, and workplace and industrial injuries. Drew has been recognized for his work representing individuals who have suffered serious and catastrophic injuries, including by the Maryland Daily Record which named Drew to their 2025 Medical Malpractice and Personal Injury “Power List.”

Drew also has an active class action practice, through which he represents consumers alleging harm from unlawful or predatory business practices. For example, Drew and his team currently represent hundreds of homeowners alleging defects in their community’s sewage system that caused environmental harm to the homeowners. Drew and his team also represent individuals in a class action against a national behavioral health company, alleging the company’s unlawful treatment of patients in a DC behavioral health facility. Drew has also taken on a private equity company for their role in financing and directing an unlawful national real estate scheme, filing a class action under RICO and other state and federal laws.

Prior to joining JGL, Drew practiced for a number of years at a DC-based plaintiffs’ litigation firm, where he represented individuals in product liability, class action, and serious personal injury cases throughout the country. Throughout his career, Drew has helped his clients obtain millions of dollars in compensation and resolve high-stakes legal disputes.

Drew has considerable experience in all stages of litigation, from the early investigation of a case to trial. While a trial lawyer at heart, Drew also believes strongly in alternative dispute resolution and has obtained successful results for his clients through pretrial negotiation, mediation, and arbitration. Ultimately, Drew does not subscribe to a “one-size-fits-all” approach to litigation; instead, he believes that each case requires its own creative and solution-driven approach.

Drew holds leadership positions in a number of local and national legal organizations, and speaks throughout the country on issues affecting the civil justice system. He lives in Washington, DC with his wife and two young daughters.
