Originally from Manchester, Attorney Lawrence attended college in Worcester, Massachusetts, and graduated from Clark University. Before becoming a lawyer, he earned his real estate broker’s license and worked in real estate in Massachusetts. After attending Rutgers University School of Law-Camden, where he was a law review editor, Attorney Lawrence returned to Connecticut to serve as a judicial law clerk in the Connecticut Superior Court.
Attorney Lawrence first practiced commercial litigation at the Hartford firm of Cohn & Birnbaum, P.C. He took a hiatus from practicing law to develop a number of real estate opportunities, then returned to private practice in litigation and real estate with Murphy, Laudati & Kiel, P.C. He joined with Attorney Edward P. Jurkiewicz to form Lawrence & Jurkiewicz, LLC in 2003, and now enjoys his private client work in consumer bankruptcy and real estate.
