LARRY PARMAN

Why People Trust Him

Larry does not just practice business and estate planning law. He has spent his career in the intersection of law, finance, and business strategy.

Before founding the firm, Larry spent over a decade in investment banking and financial services. He has been the owner or part-owner of three community banks. That background gives him something most estate planning attorneys do not have: a deep understanding of how wealth is built, protected, and transferred across generations.

He is the author of four books, including The Straight Shooter’s Guide to Estate Planning; Estate Planning Basics: How to Safeguard Your Legacy; and Guiding Those Left Behind in Oklahoma, and; Economic Dominos: A Guide to the U.S. Business Cycle. As a passionate business leader and believer in capitalism, he also authored Above The Fray: Leading Yourself, Your Business, and Others During Turbulent Times. He writes because he believes education should come before any legal engagement.

His practice focuses on:

• Estate and asset protection planning
• Business succession and exit planning
• Strategic planning for business owners

His depth and breadth of experience and expertise ensures he provides clients with a complete picture, not just a legal one.

Public Service

Larry served as Oklahoma’s Secretary of State and later as Secretary of Commerce under Governor Mary Fallin. He chairs the Board of Trustees for the Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs (OCPA) and is active in Rotary Club 29 in Oklahoma City.

He did not pursue public service for the title. He pursued it for the same reason he practices law: because he believes showing up for people matters.
