About Daniel
Daniel Laraby built a steady path from upstate New York classrooms to a multi-office law practice. He completed his undergraduate studies at Syracuse University at Utica College in 2006, then returned to Syracuse University for law school, earning his J.D. in 2010. Those years shaped the practical instincts he relies on today.
Fresh from law school, Laraby moved into the practice of law in New York. He has worked in environments that require careful analysis and plainspoken advice. Colleagues describe him as methodical and clear in his written work. He prefers straightforward explanations over legalese when advising clients.
Over the past decade and a half he has developed experience across the kinds of matters that come through a general civil practice in New York. His files have included contested matters in court and problem-solving outside the courtroom. He has handled client inquiries, drafted papers for filings and negotiated on behalf of individuals and businesses. He is comfortable in both written advocacy and direct client intake.
Laraby’s professional life has also involved collaboration inside a larger firm setting. He works at The Porter Law Group, which maintains multiple offices he helps staff. At the firm he coordinates with other attorneys and support staff to manage caseloads that span the state. Teamwork and case management are regular parts of his day.
Peers note that Laraby brings a practical temperament to client meetings. He favors clear timelines and measurable next steps. That approach shows up in how he prepares filings, organizes discovery and sets client expectations. It also shapes how he communicates with opposing counsel and the courts.
Outside of casework, he participates in professional networks common to practicing attorneys in New York. He has belonged to those circles since the early 2010s, a period that coincided with his first years as an attorney after law school.
Today Laraby remains based in New York as a member of The Porter Law Group’s team. He continues to handle a mix of courtroom and advisory matters, helping clients navigate legal processes across the state. His current practice focuses on representing clients in New York through litigation and transactional work.
