“Dear Larry,
Please accept our gratitude for your herculean efforts. Because of your guidance, we can now hopefully smile when he looks at the “Man in the Mirror.” You were our general; you were our Atticus Finch.

“Dear Larry,
I have been meaning to write to you to say “Thank you,” for all the work. You believed in us right from the start. Your integrity and professionalism were truly exceptional, and very much appreciated! I wish I had been there when the jury came back. My husband called me at work and I started to cry. From what I hear, your summation was just fabulous. You should be so proud.
Sincerely,
Mrs. D.”
“I wanted to sincerely thank you for all your effort on my behalf. I honestly never imagined that I would receive such a large settlement. I am very grateful that you represented me with such professionalism, knowledge, courtesy, and of course, great negotiating skills. It’s such a comfort to know that now I can worry a little less knowing I have a nice cushion for retirement and my family.
Thanks again for everything!”
