Larry Pino

Larry Pino (Laurence J. Pino) is the Founder and CEO of Tuscan Gardens®. Larry conceptualized Tuscan Gardens® in mid-2010 as he was trying to find a place for his mother, who was being taken care of with in-home 24/7 care, where she could experience the social interaction that had gone from her life.

Unsuccessful in finding any place he was willing to put his mother, Larry began asking the fundamental question: “What would it have to look like for me to be willing to put my own mother in it?” That seminal question, burnished over the next several years, evolved into Tuscan Gardens® as a brick and mortar reality.

That process of late also resulted in Larry writing a best-selling book,  Reinventing Senior Living: The Art of Living With Purpose, Passion & Joy®, currently available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Prior to founding the company, Larry was the Founder and CEO of a private equity development and management company focused on starting, developing and growing business enterprises. He has served as Chairman or Board Member for many of those investments.

An Avvo rated attorney, Larry is a commercial litigation attorney specializing in business and investment law at Pino Nicholson PLLC.

Subsequently, he was admitted to practice law and is in good standing as a member of the bars in Florida, New York, and California, as well as in various federal courts across the country.
