Larry spends much of his time in the Virginia Beach General District Court, Virginia Beach Circuit Court, and Virginia Beach Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court defending those who have been charged with crimes and offenses including speeding tickets, driving under the influence (driving while intoxicated), assault and battery, possession of marijuana, drug offenses, homicide, and sex offenses (including rape, sodomy, exposure, and soliciting over the computer).
Lawrence Cardon is a weight lifter extraordinaire, and is the current American and world record holder in bench press. He has set 13 world bench press records.
Larry served our clients since 1976 in various legal fields including personal injury, criminal defense, and traffic defense. His exploits outside of work span an equally impressive range, from meeting celebrities like Muhammad Ali, securing several weightlifting world records, world traveling, and even wrestling Pete Decker Jr., the firm’s founder. And in February of 2019 we said a fond farewell to Larry as he moved into retirement. Thank you Larry for all that you have done. Larry’s tremendous work ethic and energy will always be remembered and embodied by those who worked with him at The Decker Law Firm.
