Best decision

I hired this law firm from a referral of a friend, and I am glad I did. I went thru an ugly divorce and then a couple of years later he took me back to court for custody and Larry handled them both. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the law and how he prepared me to fight not only for my c...hild but for myself. He was very helpful, understanding and patient with me as I had a husband who was very controlling and like to manipulate things. Larry was always honest with me even if it meant I was in the wrong. He did not want me to do anything to jeopardize my case. His office was always there for me, and I truly appreciate them and all the work they did.

Fights hard for his client!

Working with this law firm has been the biggest blessing a girl could ask for! Mr. Praeger is highly intelligent, knows family law and fought hard for this client. He was tough on me so that I would toughen up and realize that I needed to stand up for myself and fight for myself and my kids. I cannot... say enough good things about his integrity, work ethic and the dedication that he put into my case. Ms. Deb’s time and effort in coordinating my case did not go unnoticed, either! If you put in the work and give her the necessary tools to coordinate your case, she does so at the top level. She kept the lines of communication open at all times and was very responsive. She was kind, supportive and the shoulder I needed when times were tough. She did not let me give up and encouraged me to fight hard! Mr. Praeger and Ms. Deb made the most stressful, emotional, and mentally tough times in my life a lot easier to manage. Having them in my corner gave me the best feeling of security and when all was said and done, a sigh of relief and a great outlook moving forward. Thank you so very much for all your hard work, Mr. Praeger and Ms. Deb, I am truly grateful!

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.
