Biography:

Lach (pronounced "Lash") Zemp is an AV rated lawyer with more than 20 years experience representing a variety of professional, medical, industry and business interests in North Carolina state and United States federal courts. His litigation and trial work began by representing oil producers on the North Slope of Alaska who were in royalty litigation with the State of Alaska. Today, Lach has extensive experience in professional and medical malpractice defense cases, professional licensure cases, commercial trucking defense cases, land development and conservation cases, and business litigation. Lach also represents individuals and families in land condemnation/ eminent domain cases. Lach has successfully tried many cases to juries and handled appeals in both state and federal courts, but he is also keenly aware of the costs and resources associated with protracted litigation. As a result, he works hard to understand his clients' interests and goals, and he seeks to achieve their expectations as efficiently and successfully as possible. When matters can be settled outside of the courtroom, Lach is very experienced and successful at achieving favorable results in mediation, arbitration, or through direct negotiations. Lach is an active member of the North Carolina Association of Defense Attorneys (NCADA) and the Defense Research Institute (DRI). ***Experience *Medical malpractice defense on behalf of hospitals, physicians and nursing homes *Trucking defense *Commercial/business, construction and property litigation *Land conservation/trust litigation *Law clerk to the Chief Justice of the New Hampshire Supreme Court, the Honorable David A.
