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.

Larry makes divorce fun (almost)

Larry Laraus was a tireless advocate and a great friend during a long, unpleasant process. He knows the law cold, and cuts directly to the heart of the matter at all times. He is mindful of your budgetary realities and humane toward all concerned. Fortunately, we managed to avoid any substantial cour...t time, but I almost wanted to go just to see him in action. I cannot recommend Mr. Laraus highly enough.

Great Attorney and Advocate!

Divorce is a difficult process that at times can feel overwhelming. Larry was a strong, steady, focused, reassuring advocate for me. We reviewed my goals, and he guided me through the process. He is completely honest, straightforward and helped me to understand the NY regs and have realistic goals. ...He negotiated aggressively with my ex-wife’s attorney who was unreasonable at times. Also polite and professional, well liked and respected at court and by our referee. Larry had my back, was open, warm, easy to talk to, always available. Has helped to guide me as I work to re-connect with my kids. You will be happy and grateful if you engage his services.
