A Very Good Lawyer. Experience won the Case

Mr. Dohman was very good. He was clear and up front with me during our first consult. He reviewed my case explained the process and what may be expected. As the case went on there were many changes with the state attorney's office and their case. However Larry was confident as we went to trial. His ...savvy questions and knowledge prompted the judge to dismiss some questionable evidence and cleared up some of the witness testimony. We won. All charges dropped. Thank you

Highly Recommended

Larry did a great job with my case even though we had to go to court several times. The cop who pulled me over was looking to get me convicted for no reason. My speeding ticket was also reduced. Even though Larry is going to be retiring soon, he was still committed to helping me every step of the way.... Thanks Larry

HIGHLY Recommended/Outstanding

Larry walked me through the process and kept me posted on developments. He was able to get the charges reduced! I was able to keep my license. I had the opportunity to watch other cases go before the judge with what appeared to be less skilled lawyers than Larry, and it did not go very well for thei...r clients. Well worth the money!! Larry was referred to me and everyone else he was referred too could not be more pleased with results.

Trash

He over charges. Better off getting a cheap lawyer and getting the same results. He’s close to retirement so he doesn’t really care about your case. Im sorry but save your money and time he’s just not that passionate about it anymore. Hired for criminal case and wasn’t caring enough

The best decision i made!!!

My name is kirdale, and i found myself fighting a gun charge for a weapon that was mine, but was carrying wrong... faced with so much pressure to find the right firm to represent me, i can acroos larry and his son, they worked with me completely in ever way that made my journey as comfortable as poss...ible, fighting for 2 long years i was giving up hope. Then weeks ago, the judge said he was at his point with my case, larry worked very hard to get me the best results possible, needless to say i walked away with just 1 year court supervision and no jail time, these guy and his son are the best at what they do... jus when it was looking grim, larry pulled a rabit out of his hat, and saved me from the system. Great guy... awsome work fellas 5 stars all the way

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Larry is a top-notch criminal defense attorney. I’ve known Larry for over a decade. When I was a Cook County prosecutor Larry was my opponent in countless matters, from traffic tickets to serious felony cases. I can say from first-hand experience, Larry is one of the best. His trial skills, negotiation acumen, and courtroom presence make him a formidable opponent. He is a vigorous and effective advocate for his clients’ interests. Larry has another important quality – that should not be underrated in an advocate; Larry is extremely well-liked. He is respected by judges, prosecutors, police, and nearly everyone he comes in contact with in the legal community. I highly recommend Larry."
