GREAT – HONEST- ATTORNEYS -AND – VERY GOOD
GREAT – HONEST- ATTORNEYS -AND – VERY GOOD I have known both William Larkin & Joseph Farrell for about 3 years. They have represented me in the most professional manner, their ethics are of the highest standards. Their friendship, courtesy, knowledge and honesty have become very important to me during the two years as they represented me in my case against my former employer for a breach of contract with respect to my employee severance agreement. I have used Larkin & Farrell, LLC as my attorneys in my business matters and will again in my will and estate advice. I have no problem recommending them to friends as well as business associates. I will continue to use Larkin & Farrell, LLC in any and all my legal needs.

Help with bad real estate deal
William Larkin helped my family through a bad real estate deal that me and my family would have regretted for a very long time. He responded very quickly to all of our questions and helped us deal with a difficult seller who was putting the pressure on. Thanks Bill, we will definitely be using you very soon for our actual house purchase and will recommend him to anyone else looking for a real estate attorney.

Great attorney, great advice.
I can't thank Bill Larkin enough for helping me and and my family with a recent real estate purchase. We we're faced with a bad deal, a very difficult seller and a lot of stress. Bill went above and beyond to talk me through every step of the process, he was patient enough to allow me understand what we needed to do and ultimately guided us out of a terrible situation. I would recommend Bill to anyone who needs someone who will support themg and give great advice.

Thorough research = excellent results
Mr. Larkin assisted us in a case against a major university which denied accommodations for our son's disability. I am forever grateful to Mr. Larkin for his thorough research, concise and compelling brief which resulted in an expedient decision in our favor.

Great service, quick results
I hired William from Larkin Farrell LLC as my attorney because I had an issue with attaining documents from GMC pertaining to a car accident my wife had. After I contacted William about the situation, he was able to quickly receive the documents from GMC and the issue was resolved. I was very satisfied with the service provided by William, and would come back if I had any further issues in my legal matters.

Second to None
I have consulted with Mr. Larkin on multiple occasions - after a car accident, reviewing a situation for a franchisee and proper use of insurance for an employment opportunity - every single time without fail, Mr. Larkin has gone above and beyond the call of duty with a more than thorough, prompt and clear consultation and attention to detail that has led to better outcomes than I could have ever hoped for. Not only has Mr. Larkin made life easier with his assistance in these areas but his professionalism, class and relentless pursuit of excellence have provided an example that I work to emulate in my own career. I recommend Mr. Larkin and his firm to all my colleagues, friends and family.
