Cory Larvik, Attorney
I grew up in La Grande, Oregon. I went to law school at the University of Oregon, graduating and passing the bar in 1998. After spending some time at a medium-sized law firm in Portland, Oregon, I decided to return to Northeast Oregon to start my firm and raise a family.
I have had the privilege of helping thousands of people since 1998. I have handled large cases, as well as very small matters. My clients tend to be repeat clients and most of my referrals are by word of mouth. I have a very loyal clientele for which I am very grateful. However, I am always open to helping a new client and the possibility that they will also turn into repeat clients.
In one way or another, most of my practice revolves around families. For example, I might advise a plumber who owns his own business. I first come into contact with him because he has a lease problem with his landlord. I help him resolve the lease problem which leads to him wanting to purchase some business property. I handle the transaction. Next thing you know, his son wants to be a plumber as well, and I help them form a business entity. That goes well and then the father wants to hand over his business to his son, which leads to estate planning. The son goes through a divorce and hires me to advise him on issues of custody and parenting time. Then the father is elderly and needs to have a guardianship. As you can see, this just keeps going on through the whole life cycle.
In my free time, I mostly do activities with my three children and wife. I have coached children's recreation league soccer, which caused me to actually learn the rules (such as don't use your hands and forward passes are usually a bad thing for some reason). I try to get out in the mountains as much as possible, mostly by enjoying outdoor activities.
