When asked about his personal philosophy, Greg Larson said, "I approach my work as a lawyer in the same way I approached my former work as a book editor. I am fully invested as an advisor, but it's the client's project—my job is to help the client make that project more refined, effective, and ready to hold up under scrutiny." Greg also noted, "I try never to forget that every legal issue or project or proposal is connected to and affects real people doing real things. Often, what's most needed is a sense of calm, a sense of perspective and a sense of humor. I'm here to help declutter, identify the boundaries of the playing field and provide options for moving forward." Greg Larson is a partner at Lathrop GPM, guiding nonprofit organizations through every aspect of their operations. From formation and tax-exemption matters to corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions, reorganizations, financing, regulatory concerns, and general business issues, Greg provides comprehensive legal support tailored to each client's unique needs. Nonprofit organizations, including private foundations, benefit from Greg's in-depth understanding of special tax regulations, particularly those related to grant-making program design and implementation. Higher education institutions and their related foundations also rely on Greg's strategic guidance regarding scholarships, gift acceptance, and endowment fund management, ensuring they navigate these complex areas with confidence and clarity.
