Posted by Laura | February 24, 2015 | Personal Injury

I am soooo grateful for Larry.

I was in a car accident almost three years ago. I have an injured spine and dealing with insurance and medical bills have been overwhelming. I hired an attorney 6 mths after the accident. I have never been in this situation and hired an attorney that was recommended. The lawyer added more work fo...r me and we felt like another case file to them with NO compassion or follow through. Maybe they have seen too many injuries or too many cases and just want easy money. I ran into Larry and have never looked back. Wow! He's amazing. He has my very best interest at heart. He has taken care of everything for me from medical bills going to collection and taking care of all communication to the other lawyers and insurance company. I have no more stress and fear in dealing with them. I have never been in this situation and don't know how to take care of it....specially when I'm in a lot of pain. Whenever I reach out to Larry...he responds immediately...even if he's busy. He keeps us updated and keeps us informed on every situation. He Explains his choices but also listens to our views. He has no problem being firm to the others and is also very professional. He knows the law inside and out. He has my 200% confidence and my husbands. In fact....I feel sorry for the others on the other side. However, it is amazing being able to focus on healing and trying to get my life back with no worries. I am so grateful for Larry and his excellent team.

Workplace - Non Compete Agreement

Mr. Hansen was asked to review and provide a review of an existing non-compete agreement executed during the hiring process, prior to resignation of an executive sales position. He presented a thorough review with all possible outcomes and options. It allowed me the opportunity to negotiate in a mann...er that did not prohibit future employment.
