A Top-Tier, Serious, and Professional Advocate

Recently, I was stuck in a difficult situation, needing to sell a house quickly, with little experience, in a market in South Florida where fraud can be common and finding trustworthy people can be difficult. I began this process by educating myself quickly over several weeks, learning about cash ...investors, realtors, and contracts. Even after all this, I came to realize that the smart approach was to recruit an advocate, someone whose sole interest and commitment was to keep me out of trouble and look out for my interests. This doesn’t describe every lawyer, but it does describe a good lawyer. It is important to note that I must have called easily a dozen lawyers or more in my search for the right person, and all of these lawyers were top-rated on the various rating services. So what was I looking for? Well, with people, you can’t always tell directly what their values and ability are with just a phone call, but you can look for signs that reveal the nature of an individual. For example: -- Does a lawyer understand they can’t help people effectively if they can’t keep a schedule? That means sometimes they’ll have to interrupt if they run out of time, but it also means they’ll keep their appointments with you. People who can’t draw boundaries can’t keep promises. -- Does a lawyer have an interest in constantly digging deeper into their topic of law? Are they unhappy when they know they don’t have a clear answer to a question? You can tell by their attitude, by their hesitation before answering questions that might need thought, by the clarity of their explanations. -- Does a lawyer take themselves and their work seriously? You can tell by their procedures, by their staff, by their thoughtfulness, by their professionalism. -- Does a lawyer make you do their work for them? Do you have to ask the hard questions to discover how to protect yourself, or will they be ahead of you and proactive? -- Do they have the right kind of experience and will they be clear in helping you understand their experience and how it’s relevant to you? I could continue, but these are the kinds of personal attributes I was searching for in a lawyer, and I finally found two I was ready to try, ending up with Larry Davis. You must judge for yourself, but my experience with Larry was outstanding. He gave the right signals as I interviewed him on the phone before signing a retainer, and he was exactly the kind of elite professional he appeared to be. He was professional, friendly, punctual, pro-active, straightforward, clear and knowledgeable, had the right experience, and satisfied all of my most important concerns. Unwilling to just take advice on authority, I asked many pointed and detailed questions, asking Larry to clearly explain his viewpoint, which he could and did. He helped me research cash buyers for red flags, leading me to eliminate some and favor others. He reviewed many sale contracts in advance at my request, and facilitated an easy closing remotely (I live in another state). He helped educate on the various risks so that I could plan and make good decisions. In the end, my sale went without a hitch, I got the price I wanted, and everything turned out well. Professionals of Larry’s quality are not easy to find, but if you are willing to really search hard, you can find them. Larry has my full endorsement and recommendation.

Above & Beyond

I spent some time looking for the right lawyer to assist me with my estate planning. I am glad that I did. My experience working with Mr. Davis greatly exceeded my expectations. Mr. Davis took the time to really understand my situation and develop a plan that was right for me, going above and beyond ...to consider potential issues and implement personalized solutions. While Mr. Davis has the knowledge, professionalism, and experience you would expect in an exceptional lawyer, he also has a kindness and emotional intelligence that you would not. I am very happy with his service and would recommend his legal services to my family and friends.

Simply The Best!

When I decided to sell my home, I inquired of a trusted and highly respected business professional as to who he would recommend to represent me as seller in my upcoming real estate transaction. He didn't hesitate to recommend Larry Davis, and I am so happy that he did! Mr. Davis and his team provide...d outstanding service. Not only was Mr. Davis easily accessible, but he possessed a calm and competent demeanor that instilled a real sense of security. I knew that I was in good hands! His assistant, Emily, was more than wonderful. Always personable and patient, she worked diligently on my behalf. A month or two down the road, I found a home that I wished to purchase in another county a couple of hours away. I couldn't imagine anyone else representing me (as a buyer) this time, but Mr. Davis. Not only did he expertly handle it all, he even drove a couple hours to be present at my closing (something not really necessary in this age of technology.) I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Davis to anyone wishing to be represented by THE BEST.
