Steven Welch, Tax Attorney on Apr 6, 2016
Relationship: Worked together on matter

I have had the undeserved pleasure to call Larry both colleague and friend. He is a lawyer's lawyer. His grasp of the law and the wisdom of its application in a variety of contexts is unparalleled. The consummate teacher always with an almost unforgettable meme to drive home the difficult concept, he is also the vigorous advocate that the client on the other side of the IRS bulldozer wants at his or her side. He is the David to the government Goliath. If you require legal or valuation advice on a tax matter, his tactical and strategic brilliance will serve you well, and I eagerly endorse him.

J. Warren, Business Attorney on Jul 30, 2015

Larry is among the preeminent estate planning attorneys in Texas. His expertise extends to business valuation, which he performs through his affiliated entity, Iron Horse Business Valuation Group. He is thus able to offer a unique blend of legal, financial and business counsel. I highly recommend him.

Carol Gonnella, Estate planning Attorney on Jan 31, 2012
Relationship: Worked together on matter

I have had the honor of knowing Larry for over 15 years. In those years, Larry and I have worked together on many cases involving estate planning and asset valuation. He is unparalleled in his national reputation of business appraisals for different types of entities. In addition to being an excellent attorney, Larry is an exceptionally compassionate, trustworthy human being with a great sense of humor. His southern graciousness and hospitality makes everyone who come within his sphere feel welcome and and at ease. I would highly recommend Larry to anyone who wishes to do estate planning, asset protection planning or who needs a business valuation. He is a highly respected expert in these fields.

Larry is the seminal expert for all things related to family limited entity, tax, and valuation planning and he is one of the few lawyers who is frighteningly smart while being an outstanding communicator and truly nice person. He is a gifted attorney and business, estate and tax planner; it is always a distinct pleasure to be in his distinguished and erudite company.
