My parents are both now in their 80's and my dad was recently diagnosed with initial stages of Dementia, I live out of state and so have limited time when visiting to take care of necessary matters. Each of these elements Larry took into consideration from the very first interaction we had with him.
Our matter was a bit unique as we needed a "Re-Statement" of my parents Trust. (if you don't know what this means, Larry will take the time to fully explain this and ANY other questions you have).
In Late 2020, well before we ever signed up with Larry, he was gracious and interacted with us as if we were his favored client. In 2021 when our lives settled down just a bit we were able to move forward with the restatement of my parents Trust.
Larry gave his undivided attention in our initial consultation with him in his office and got everything understood and all questions we had answered. Following the first meeting the beneficiaries and the Trustees needed some additional "thinking" on the part of my Mom. After many hours on this, she had it set and we conveyed her wishes to Larry; our write-up of this to Larry read like a Dr. Sues short story but Larry missed NOTHING and got it all understood exactly as she desired it to be.
As noted, I'm out of town and when I come into Los Angeles my time is very limited, Larry literally altered his own plans to go into the office when he was not scheduled for solely to accommodate our needs and my tight schedule.
He took extra time to go over EVERY piece of paper he prepared for my parents new/re-stated Trust and had it all prepared so all that was needed, after his review was for signatures to be applied.
*NOW, with regards to my dad, he's no longer able to act on such matters, and with dementia he's not the man he once was, can have outbursts and is forgetful. Larry, ever the gentleman, still included my dad in the process, interacted with him as he would any other client, and made him feel like he mattered.
AND, if you do use Larry, he might tell you that even with all the work he does people are still most blown away with the binder he puts all the documents in at the very end. Yep, Totally Impressive. He had a binder ready, with my parents name embossed on it ready to go at the very end. I mention this just to tie it all together showing Larry is at the VERY Top of his Game. Use Larry, you'll see what I'm talking about.
I know I've not done justice to what we experienced working with Larry, but let me wrap it up with this.
My Mom told a friend this, "if I needed to do it all over again and had an opportunity to choose from ALL the attorneys that could have done our Trust, I'd still have chosen Larry, without question".
*it also worth noting here in the end, that when it comes time for the Trust to be acted upon, help will in those difficult hours be needed. Larry assured us that he would be ready for such a call, and on that day I know that he will be equally gracious to walk us through the steps that then need to be done.
Thank You Larry, so very much appreciate all your effort and time. read more
