I've been practicing business law in Colorado for more than 30 years. I began my career at a major Denver law firm where I was a partner in the business department. After that, I served as chief in-house counsel for companies ranging in size from five to five hundred people. I was also a co-founder, owner and officer of a technology company which gave me first hand experience managing a business. For the past six years, I have been in private practice working with small and mid-sized business clients.
My focus is on problem solving and finding practical solutions. I understand that business people are not interested in fighting over esoteric or trivial legal issues at the expense of completing a business transaction. I also understand that a business person does not want to expend legal fees contesting unimportant points. In my more than 20 years of working for companies as in-house counsel, I've developed a skill for devising solutions that protect a client's legal interests while also achieving its business objectives.
My 20 years as in-house counsel has also exposed me to a broad range of legal matters that a business is likely to encounter. I can help clients identify and address a wide variety of legal concerns.

Highly Recommend Larry
Larry has worked on a number of projects for me. I trust his knowledge and his judgment. He doesn't focus on changing the little, meaningless things in contracts like many lawyers but keeps the bigger picture in mind. He has helped me get to closure on a number of deals and has warned me about the...
