A Friend in Law

A year ago my mother-in-law passed away and we had difficulty with providing proper documentation to the life insurance companies which was prepared by an attorney no longer practicing. Although, not in his field of practice, Mr. Day took the time to help us get the correct paperwork filed to exped...ite the process. He did not charge for his time. I have not had the misfortune to need Mr. Day's personal injury expertise but have worked with individuals whom he has helped. He is not only knowledgeable of the law but is personable, caring and has the biggest heart I know. His skills as a mediator has resolved many cases without going to court. Mr. Day is a friend and champion to those in need. He is a respected member of the attorney community. I would highly recommend him as would anyone who has ever met him.

Mediation lawyer | Dec 16

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mr. Day's reputation – as a fine attorney and counselor, as an experienced and effective facilitator, and as a man of high integrity – is well deserved. Over my own career, which has involved dozens of alternative dispute resolution proceedings, I have seen Larry consistently display a rare mix of objectivity, sensitivity, and good old-fashioned "stick-to-it-ive-ness" which, for properly motivated parties, can lead to fair and expeditious results. Whether in need of an advocate, or of a facilitator, I would not hesitate to enlist Larry’s services."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
