Brent Lawrence is a self absorbed and self serving lawyer. He came to a company function as a guest of a good vendor of ours. He spent the whole evening giving us unsolicited comments about how horrible our lawyer was and what a super star he was. He name dropped a bunch of people and tried to sell us like a used car salesman.
When we decided not to use him and he spoke horribly about our company after that. If we were so bad then why did he invite himself to our party for an unsolicited sales call???? I am not sure if Brent Lawrence really has references, but I would be shocked if anyone ever used him more than once.
After doing some more research I found that "Business Law Ventures" has had more turnover in its staff than a fast food restaurant. ( I apologize to all the fast food restaurants for using them as a comparison! )
