Attorney Larry H. Parker, a decades-long Southern California legal fixture whose television ads and billboards made him almost a household name, has died at age 75, it was reported Friday.
TMZ reported Parker’s death, citing his law partner Ron Beck and Parker’s daughter-in-law. No details about the circumstances or timing of his death were immediately available.
The Law Offices of Larry H. Parker has been in operation for nearly 50 years, now boasting more than 125 attorneys, primarily handling accident and personal injury cases. The firm’s television ads, which are almost unavoidable for Southern California viewers, boast that its attorneys are “successful in 95% of our cases.”
