Freedom, in Perpetuity

Gordon Troy and Lawrence Stanley extracted me from a draconian contract, and later rebuilt the agreement on my terms--something I was told was impossible. As an artist, I can say Gordon is my fiercest advocate and for that I am ever grateful.

Gordon Troy

Replied last January 14, 2026

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words. Lawrence and I are truly honored to have stood by you and advocated on your behalf. Helping you get out of a situation that felt impossible—and then rebuilding it on terms that respected you and your terrific art—was deeply rewarding for us. Your trust means more than we can say, and we’re genuinely grateful to continue supporting you.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
