Lawrence B. "Larry" Cohen

A trusted advisor for our family's estate planning

Our family engaged Larry Cohen at Nixon Peabody to handle a complex estate restructuring following my father's passing. With assets spread across Massachusetts and a family trust that hadn't been updated in decades, we needed a steady, knowledgeable hand. Larry's 17 years of experience, particularly his recognized work in trusts and estates, was immediately evident. He didn't just recite legal statutes; he explained the implications of various decisions in clear, practical terms, showing a deep understanding of both the law and family dynamics. His Georgetown Law background and long tenure at a firm like Nixon Peabody gave us immense confidence. He expertly guided us through the probate process and drafted new, airtight documents that addressed our specific concerns about asset protection and succession. The one area where we occasionally felt a slight delay was in email response times during particularly busy periods, sometimes taking a full business day for a reply. However, when we had calls or meetings, he was fully prepared and completely focused on our matter. Larry is a consummate professional who combines sharp legal acumen with genuine personal investment in his clients' outcomes. We feel our family's legacy is in secure hands.
