Kind, practical, and no-nonsense

Larry was recommended to me by a lawyer who had hired him for her own divorce (always a good sign!). He was helpful, practical, and extremely knowledgeable. Negotiating a divorce agreement will never be a fun experience given the issues being dealt with, but Larry navigated it with a sensitivity th...at I so appreciate, while still fully advocating for my needs, and his years of experience were immediately evident.

Highly Recommended!

Larry was wonderful from beginning to end! A family friend recommended Larry to me while I was seeking a divorce attorney. Getting a divorce is something I never imagined happening, but he made a very difficult process much easier than I imagined. He was very personable and understanding throughout t...he entire process. He was very knowledgeable in explaining everything and broke down all of the possible scenarios which was very helpful in making decisions. I'll always be very grateful to have had Larry on my side during this complicated time. What could have taken a lot of time he had buttoned up in just a few months because he went above and beyond!

Excellent attorney!

A divorce is difficult and painful. Larry LaRaus couldn't have been more helpful in easing the difficulty and relieving the pain (when I felt like crying, he made me laugh). Larry was quick to resolve all matters that arose, kept me informed and educated me when having to make important decisions. Wh...at I thought would be an arduous process, was carried out with delicacy and ease. I highly recommend Larry and his firm.

Simply the best!

Larry was efficient and no nonsense kind of divorce lawyer. He actively listened to me and then was open and honest with my options, outcomes, etc. He got me divorced as quickly as he could and helped me every step of the way. I’m not sure with the fees as this was my first divorce so, I can’t compa...re. It was costly! However, worth it because he got me divorced and was supportive and open and honest through the whole process. I also appreciated him getting to the point and not dragging anything out. He gets the job done and does it honestly and professionally. I will forever be grateful for him and I’m glad I chose him to be my divorce lawyer.

Incredible Lawyer and Person

Larry represented me in my divorce and words can't express my gratitude and appreciation to him. From the first time we spoke, I could immediately tell he would be my advocated and we developed a close relationship throughout my divorce process. He always answered my calls and emails. I thought my ca...se was one of a kind, but at every stage and situation, he was always knowledgeable. He cared for me and I never once felt like I was "just another client." His advice was always honest and real (whether I liked it or not) and it was always delivered in a kind and respectful way. My final settlement was signed about 6 months ago, I still refer back to it regularly and he really set me up for a successful life.
