Excellent attorney. Very professional and thorough. Able to relate very well. He is very dedicated and an excellent communicator. He makes you feel at ease and confident in his advice. A great listener and keenly interested in his clients. Highly ethical. I strongly recommend him.

I was the victim of a motor vehicle accident. I tried to come to a reasonable settlement with the driver's insurance company on my own but they weren't open to it. I consulted Attorney Reilly. I was impressed by his honesty in speaking to what a realistic settlement might be and commitment to represent me. He kept me up to date with communication throughout the process. Ultimately the settlement was several times greater than what I was asking of the insurance carrier without representation. I highly recommend Attorney Reilly.

I hired Larry Reilly to handle an appeal brought on by my ex-wife through our divorce. His professionalism gave me the confidence to hire him. Larry was fair, honest, kept me apprised of how the case was going, thereby helping me deal with the stress that came with the appeal. Thanks to Larry’s work I did win my case. I am eternally grateful for his service, and I hereby recommend Larry Reilly without reservation. He will work hard for you.

I recommend Mr. Reilly without reservation. He is extremely knowledgable and professional while also being able to create a comforting environment for his clients. I knew I could count on him to take care of everything needed to be done. I would choose his business again in any future matters I would need a lawyer for.

I found Mr Reilly's law firm through an advertisement in the local paper and decided to consult him following a nasty fall resulting in surgery. From our first meeting I felt confident that this was a lawyer who knew his business, who was realistic in his expectations, had high ethical standards, and, in short, was someone I could trust. He was always friendly and upbeat whenever we met, but also meticulous in his attention to details and straight-forward about my responsibilities in pursuing the issue. He was conscientious about keeping me informed during the two years it took to resolve the issue and dogged in his negotiations with the other party's insurance company. I believe he was just as delighted as I was with the favorable outcome. Certainly his determination helped me keep up my resolve to see the issue through.

I engaged Lawrence Reilly to represent me in a suit that appeared to be a simple case of vindictive accusations. Rather than settle or arbitrate, the Plaintiffs dragged the matter out for over 3 years. Larry was an effective negotiator throughout this frustrating period. In trial he had deep command of the law and the details of the case. His work was focussed and clear, both to me as client and to the judge. He prevailed while never being less than civil and calm. I would highly recommend him.

I hired Mr. Reilly upon learning that a product used in my knee was defective causing two further surgeries. Mr. Reilly came highly recommended and he worked very hard against "big corporation" and their many lawyers who didn't want to take any responsibility. Larry was tenacious, knowledgeable and informative. We ended up getting recovery for more than I had anticipated. His constant communication and empathy was appreciated. With Larry, you will be in VERY good hands.

Larry has settled two different cases for me over the past 7 years. He is extremely thorough and professional but also caring and genuine. I was awarded the maximum amount in both cases. He really fights to get you as much compensation as possible. He is extremely intelligent and focused so you can be confident that you are well represented. He is not your average, mediocre attorney looking out for himself.

My partners and I cannot say enough good things about Larry. He has the highest integrity, and guided us similarly, even when the other side's behavior was incredibly hard to stomach. This was noticed by the court, and turned out to be the right thing to have done: it ended up having a major impact on our case. Larry was always accessible and promptly returned our calls/emails, usually initiating contact with us first. He worked tirelessly to be prepared, organized, and well researched. He was brilliant at litigating, cross examination, and various highly technical points of law. He mastered our very complicated and lengthy matter and was able to clearly explain to the court our side of the case. He cleanly cut through the layers of obfuscation that were thrown up by the other side. There is no doubt that Larry's expertise helped us win a large judgment.
