A compassionate attorney who delivers results

Vance Larimer is a fantastic attorney. From the moment that he has represented my case he has not over promised nor under delivered. From the get-go Vance and his staff were totally empathetic of my situation and looked out for my best interest, both medically as well as emotionally. Throughout the ...legal process he and his team have kept me fully abreast of what is happening with my case and he has been always realistic in communicating to me what the potential outcome could be. I am happy to say that with his, and his teams, help my outcome was much better than what I imagined. I highly recommend Vance Larimer to anyone who has had a bad accident and wants a compassionate attorney with the patience and experience to win. Thank you Vance!!!

Who do you call for a personal injury attorney.... Larson & Larimer

When I rearended in a car accident, I had no idea where to turn to for help with my claim. A friend referred me to Vance's firm for assistance. Vance and Jake helped me line up medical treatment and negotiated a fair settlement of my claim. Their firm communicated on a regular basis and kept me up...dated on the progress. Their knowledge, background and experience, took a huge load off my shoulders and allowed me to focus on recovery.

Highly Recommended, Knowledgeable and Hard working, Helpful Attorney

I was in a situation where I had to hire an attorney to collect medical benefits for a car accident I was in caused by another person w out insurance. I didn't know who to go to and Mr. Larimer came highly recommended to me by someone I know. I presented my case to him in hopes he would take it on. L...uckily he chose to do so, and he helped me through out the entire process learn the legal aspect, gain knowledge of what I needed to do, what I would be going through and kept me updated every time he was notified as to what was happening. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. I am so incredibly thankful and happy with my decision that I hired Vance to take on my case. Without him, I wouldn't have been able to withstand going through trial and coming out with a victory on our verdict!

Best Lawyer in Colorado- I have trusted the counsel of Vance Larimer for both my business and personal law matters

Vance and his team at Larson & Larimer are true professionals. They have assisted me in both business and personal law matters. Vance has been very reliable and knowledgable in regards to my legal matters. He has helped me save thousands of dollars and has provided me great consultation. After spendi...ng a fortune with a large Colorado law firm, I approached Vance and his team at Larson & Larimer, and I was amazed at the difference. While the big law firm was all about the billable hours, Vance Larimer took the time to understand my case, and find creative ways to settle the case. I would strongly urge anyone that is hiring an attorney or law firm, to consider Vance and the team at Larson & Larimer. I learned the hard way that sometimes the largest firms in Colorado are focused on increasing their revenue while Vance and his team are all about getting the job done, with the best interest of the client as a focal point for all they do.
