Much like the other reviews provided, I can highlight similar feeling of dismay with my interaction. He was recommended to me by an attorney who specialized in another field as a professional who is familiar in employment law. After waiting roughly 20 min past the time scheduled I was excited to have a legal view on how my issues may play out. Within the first few moments of consultation, I was flushed with immediate disappointment for making such a rushed decision at a cost of $150. Having roughly 7 years experience as a HR generalist, with a bachelors from UC system I was dismayed to find the information he provided was little more than a google search would and starkly in contrast with what I know. Please beware if you do not present yourself as wealthy you may be stereotyped and simply a collection pot for a consultation fee.

Charged $500 for 1/2 hour consultation. It was obvious that I did not want to have him represent me after 5 minutes as he really doesn't care for women and thinks he is above them. $500 down the toilet for this egotistical narcissist!!

I had a deeply disappointing experience with Larry Digesti. After some difficulty in finding a suitable attorney who was free to take on my case, I was referred to Mr. Digesti by another Reno employment lawyer. I met him for an initial consultation (for which he charged $150) and he agreed to represent me in a dispute with my employer. I thought myself in good hands: he is an experienced, well-connected attorney who seemed very sure of himself during our initial meeting. However, when we next met his performance was extremely poor. He was unprepared for our meeting, slow to grasp the issues at stake in my case, and dismissive of my concerns. As my disappointment in him became evident Mr. Digesti turned belligerent, and actually yelled at me and cast aspersions upon my character. At the end of a two hour meeting (billed at the rate of $400 an hour) I still did not feel like he had an adequate grasp of my case, nor did I have answers to the specific (and quite concrete) questions I had conveyed to him in advance of our meeting. Soon thereafter I decided to cut my losses and end our relationship. Even this turned out to be more protracted and unpleasant an experience than it needed to be. Just getting a refund for the unused portion of my retainer was a trial, since Mr. Digesti did not respond to my messages concerning this matter -- including a request that he mail me the refund check so I didn't have to drive in to pick it up from my home three hours away. Thankfully, I ultimately found my way to another lawyer who saw my case through to a successful conclusion (for a total fee that was less than what I paid Mr. Digesti for our brief and unproductive time together) and whose intelligence, backbone, and ethical compass did much to restore my faith in the legal profession. I understand that others have had more satisfying experiences with Mr. Digesti, but based on how things went for me I cannot recommend him.
