Great to work with

I found Larry to be very knowledgeable in family law. He was very practical and tried very hard to "make a deal". He was very cost conscious and kept telling me that the legal fees would outweigh the benefit. He is very honorable. I have dealt with many attorneys in my career and I would highly re...commend Larry.

Highly Experienced Divorce Attorney

Lawrence LaRaus is truly an outstanding attorney! He was extremely patient, knowledgeable, and on point through the whole process of my divorce. I had so many questions and concerns regarding my son and the time I wanted to spend with him, and all that I wanted to contribute and be a part of in his... life. Larry made me feel confident and at ease, and I knew I was in good hands. He always got right back to me when I called, texted, or emailed him. He was extremely professional with all parties involved. Truly, an amazing professional you would want to represent you. I would highly recommend him to anyone going through such a difficult time. Thank you for getting me through this difficult divorce and accomplishing all my needs, especially in regards to my son. Outstanding lawyer!

Listens to what you want

A good attorney understands the law, but an outstanding attorney is able combine their knowledge of the law with the specific goals their client is wanting to achieve out of the process. Larry took the time early to understand what was important to me, and negotiated with opposing counsel accordingly.... He didn’t let ego get in the way, and while I know he had the skill to drive harder if I’d allowed him to, it meant the world that he never lost sight of what ultimately mattered to me. I can’t recommend Larry highly enough.

Wonderful

Larry was truly a wonderful person and lawyer to have during such a difficult process. From the beginning he was very easy to communicate with and felt like we really understood each other. He always made me feel at ease and confident in his ability. He knew exactly what was important and what I didn...'t need to worry about. He was also instrumental in keeping everything going, even through a pandemic, which thankfully led to a relatively quick divorce.
