Real Estate 50%

Residential and commercial real estate. Buyer and seller representation. SBA loans. Hiring Michael as your attorney guarantees that you will receive an expert, unbiased explanation and evaluation of the contract. I will work for you to negotiate fair and reasonable terms. You may think the contract is clear and easy to understand, but it may contain provisions that are unenforceable or that create more liability that may cost you thousands of dollars.

Real estate transaction

Attorney Larkin assisted us with a real estate matter concerning a home purchase several years ago. He promptly researched the issue and worked with the bank and title companies to ensure we had the necessary documentation to close on our loan refinance. He was prompt, Knowledgable, professional and... great to work with.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
