Joseph Adama was the father of William Adama. He apparently hailed from Caprica.
According to SkyOne, Adama was a civil liberties lawyer (Litmus) and had divorced from his wife Evelyn Adama when their son, William, was in his teens. The canocity of this is questionable.
William remarked that he thought Joseph was a better father than he ever was (The Hand of God). Joseph always carried a silver lighter into his cases; he considered it good luck, and claimed he only lost a case when he left it at home. He later gave it to William, who, after the holocaust, loaned it to his son (The Hand of God). It was returned to him after the mission's success.
Before going to trial Joseph would aways break pencils before entering the courtroom as a reminder to "break preconceptions" and "work with what you had." He would then ask to borrow a pencil from the clerk. William told Laura Roslin about this ritual before her upcoming Presidential debate, leading her to try it herself.
