Lawrence James Arnkoff

From the beginning when the Federal Government started investigating us (5 years to indictment and 5 years to sentencing) , Larry always provided me a sense of comfort and confidence, knowing that he had the knowledge and communication skills needed to process my case through to the end. This was a ...very complex case involving the FDA and the Big Pharma companies. Although we hoped, from the beginning that we could fight the charges and avoid any prison time, that did not happen. It was disappointing that we had to accept the plea deal, but it was with confidence and understanding that we made the absolute right decision. Larry was there every step of the way over the years. He was responsive and engaged more than the the most expensive, highly touted lawyers in the USA that I could have hired. Due to his ability to negotiate with the US Attorneys office and ultimately even after serving only 20 months of a 72 month sentence at a Federal Prison he still was there for me in 2020 when Covid 19 broke out. He was at that point not retained but provided my appointed Council with information and background and I am a free man today because of his efforts. He certainly goes the extra mile.

I was facing a serious investigation by the FBI for possible involvement in a fraud and money laundering scheme. At that time, I was not sure what to do, so I started searching through the internet for a lawyer expert in federal criminal cases. When I found Larry's profile, I was impressed about his ...experience as well as the positive comments made by other clients, so I called in his office and ended up in hiring him after I had an insightful conversation with him. I gotta tell you that I absolutely made the right choice! Larry was an active listener who quickly understood my position in the case and he was able to make a good initial assessment for my situation. Larry began providing potential solutions based on his vast knowledge in the legal system of similar cases. Larry walked with me every step of the way during the investigation for the best outcome. Over a year and half, Larry constantly stayed in touch with me to genuinely keep me informed about the progress in my case and clearly answered all my questions. His excellent communication was a key to help me know what was going on. In addition, his fees were quite reasonable for the amount of care and insight that kept me stay on top of things at all the times. In the end, my case resulted in non-prosecution agreement and a financial settlement. I am truly thankful for Larry' service and I highly recommend him for anyone facing serious legal complications. Thank you Larry for the great work.

When we asked Mr. Arnkoff to help us with our legal problem, he noted that he did not usually take a small case like ours--it was not a federal crime and he had not worked in the county where our son was held. However, he gave us a very fair rate and took the time to learn about the locals so he cou...ld best represent our son's interests. I live in another state, but he kept us apprised every step of the way. He smoothed out a process that could have been very painful. He was honest and very clear about the process and prospects. And he got the best possible outcome for my son. I am very thankful for his services.

I was facing very serious federal drug, guns and money laundering charges. Larry was chosen from a special group of private lawyers by the Court to represent me. My family initially spoke to several other private lawyers but Larry had more experience and confidence than any of them. I made the righ...t decision keeping Larry as my attorney. He has the respect of the U.S. Attorneys and the Judges. He fought hard for me for more than three years going above and beyond what the other lawyers in the case were doing for their clients. Larry always kept me and my family advised of what was going on in the case. He always returned calls promptly to my family and he visited me often. I was facing life in prison but through Larry’s experience, determination and negotiating skills he eventually got me a 65% sentence reduction from the sentencing guidelines. I would recommend Larry for anyone facing serious criminal charges.

I had known Larry for several years before I encountered legal problems in Miami. Recently I was arrested and indicted for a federal immigration crime. I had never been in trouble before and had never experienced jail so I was upset and frightened. My friends contacted Larry and without hesitation ...he began the process of resolving my serious problem. He brought in his partner Mike who is tough as nails. When you are in jail you hear a lot of crazy things from other inmates and from friends on the outside. Larry and Mike are both very experienced federal criminal lawyers so they kept everything real for me and whatever they told me was going to happen , it happened. After spending a short period of time in custody I was eventually sentenced to time served and released to immigration. I thought I was going to be deported immediately. Larry and his associate David were able to negotiate my release on a very reasonable bond leaving me months to get my affairs in order and eventually I can voluntarily return to my native country without deportation. I consider Larry a very good friend. I put my trust in him and he did not let me down. He charges reasonable fees and he always stays in communication with you or your family. I would recommend him to anyone in need of an excellent criminal defense attorney.
