Attorney Profiles

Neil Krupnick

In 1972, Neil Krupnick founded the law firm of Neil Krupnick & Associates, a Professional Law Corporation, dedicated to serving the needs of Ventura and Los Angeles County accident victims who suffer substantial personal injuries. He has worked extensively in the personal injury area, passionately representing clients who have suffered the most serious of injuries. Mr. Krupnick has played a significant role in negotiating settlements and obtaining resolutions in hundreds of automobile, motorcycle, and pedestrian injury cases. His long-standing commitment to his clients is reflected in his personalized legal representation, tireless preparation of our client's cases, and excellence in the courtroom, as well as at the negotiating table.

The law firm became Krupnick & Chapman, LLP, in 2007 when William "Bud" Chapman became a partner. Krupnick & Chapman remains committed to the principles established by Mr. Krupnick. Now more than ever, the firm provides a special group of professionals who employ vigorous and creative advocacy in substantial personal injury matters. Krupnick & Chapman has earned the reputation for aggressive pursuit of innovative solutions, timely responses to clients' needs, and the ability to handle complex and sophisticated matters.

Our firm utilizes a "Team Approach" in our representation of clients versus the assignment of a case to one individual attorney. We are dedicated to working hard and getting the best possible financial recovery for those who have been injured in an automobile, motorcycle, or pedestrian injury incident. We understand how to investigate the circumstances of these cases and maximize your recovery. Krupnick & Chapman has successfully recovered millions of dollars against the largest insurance companies and corporations in the country. We handle every aspect of each case so that our clients, and their families, can focus their attention on providing emotional and physical care that is necessary to help an injured person recover from a vehicle accident.

A native of Southern California, Mr. Krupnick graduated from the University of San Diego School of Law. He is very active in community organizations and he currently serves as a member of the Board of Directors of Hospice of the Conejo, Support For The Kids, and Boys & Girls Club of Las Virgenes and Conejo.

In addition, you are invited to read a few articles that have appeared in Ventura County publications, about Neil Krupnick, the founder of our firm. 

William “Bud” Chapman

Before he joined Neil Krupnick & Associates in October 2005, William “Bud” Chapman worked for over 10 years with Grassini & Wrinkle, one of California’s top law firms, primarily as a plaintiff’s litigation attorney. In 2007, Mr. Chapman became a partner in Krupnick & Chapman, LLP. Mr. Chapman's experience and success includes his involvement in many high profile and notable California injury cases. Just one of those claims arose out of a vehicular collision that left a 19-year old girl paralyzed and suffering from permanent brain damage. This case, Burch v. Children’s Hospital of Orange County, resulted in the largest single plaintiff’s verdict in the history of California. Mr. Chapman has represented hundreds of Plaintiffs in California personal injury claims and he has won millions of dollars in a wide variety of injury cases. Another example includes a wrongful death case against Cal Trans that involved a dangerous road condition on State Route 138 in the Antelope Valley. After a long and arduous fight, Cal Trans agreed to pay $3,000,000.00 in settlement. As a direct result of this particular resolution, that dangerous road condition is currently undergoing massive modification and repair by the State of California.

Married and the father of 2 children, Mr. Chapman devotes hours of his personal time to his family, church, community, numerous charitable organizations and his children’s activities.

Because of his diverse background, Bud Chapman is an extremely versatile California attorney. His addition to Krupnick & Chapman solidifies this firm as a successful and prevailing representative of injured persons in California State Court and the first choice of many members of the Ventura and Los Angeles County Bar Associations, who choose to refer their clients to Krupnick & Chapman for their client’s injury claims.
