The following are a sampling of testimonials by attorneys who have retained Lawrence H. Jacobson as an expert witness:
"I have designated Larry as an expert witness and consulted with him as a sounding board many times. His expertise, intelligence and demeanor make him the first person I call when I am evaluating a case or seeking a qualified opinion. Not only that, he is a pleasure to work with and incredibly responsive. I recommend him highly."
Geofrey Gold, Attorney at Law
Rutter Hobbs and Davidoff, Inc.
Los Angeles, California
"We engaged Larry Jacobson in the middle of a trial after our original expert became unavailable (luckily there had been no demand for exchange of experts, allowing us to do a last-minute switch). We engaged Larry on a Monday, and on the following Thursday, he was on the stand testifying. It was truly impressive how quickly he was able to get up to speed. Larry was very adroit on the stand and withstood cross-examination well (despite not having had the benefit of being deposed). Larry was also scrupulous and fair with his billing. Larry really knows real estate transactions and I would hire him again in a heartbeat."
Diane B. Sherman, Attorney at Law
Los Angeles, California
"I have had the opportunity to work with Larry Jacobson for several years on a number of cases. Larry is the first person I call for a reality check on the facts and to retain his services as an expert at the beginning of the case. Larry's personal, first hand experience in the real estate industry along with his legal expertise is invaluable in resolving cases involving disputes between buyers, sellers and brokers. In every case I have retained Larry's services, opposing counsel has figured out too late that we have retained the most effective expert. I am convinced that Larry's credibility in the industry has been instrumental in settling every case for which I have retained his services."
Karen Davis, Attorney at Law
Pasadena, California
"I retained Larry Jacobson for a seemingly complex case involving both a breech of partnership and legal malpractice aspects. He cut through the tons of irrelevant detail and got to the heart of the case without wasting our time. At trial, Larry was well prepared. Two long and complex weeks later, the jury came in with a verdict of over $1 million, including punitive damages. Several of the jurors commented that they'd want Larry on their side if they ever had a real estate, transactional or business problem."
Howard A. Kapp, Attorney at Law
Los Angeles, California
"I found Mr. Jacobson's background and extensive knowledge on real estate matters gave him great credibility as a witness. He presents an impressive appearance and delivers opinions in a disarming manner."
Larry D. Mikelson, Attorney at Law
