Recognized in Stockton, Modesto, Sacramento, and across the country as an expert personal injury trial lawyer, Larry holds the record for the largest verdict ever in the U.S. involving a passenger vehicle rollover accident ($295 million) as well as the largest sum of punitive damages ever awarded in the history of clergy sexual abuse litigation.

Larry is a former chairman of the Consumer Attorneys of California's Amicus Curie Committee for professional negligence. He has participated in over 30 appellate and California Supreme Court cases, which have included several landmark decisions.

From 2001 to 2003, Larry served as special counsel to the California State Senate Select Committee to Investigate Price Manipulation of the Wholesale Energy Market, to which he devoted innumerable hours on a pro bono basis, and for which he received an official Senate resolution thanking him for his efforts.

In addition to continuing to work on the preparation, settlement, and trial of civil cases, Larry E. Drivon is serving as special council to a new Senate select committee investigating the oil refinery industry.
