In 2019, Mr. Larrazabal reversed the administrative court’s denial of a client’s license and prevailed in the Fourth District Court of Appeal. In 2018, Mr. Larrazabal appealed the trial court’s ruling on the issue of pre-suit notice and waiver under Florida’s medical negligence statute. In 2016, Mr. Larrazabal successfully defended all aspects of the issue of whether a four-wheel ATV was a dangerous vehicle and was granted a summary judgment on a negligent supervision claim brought against the Appellee.
