an Lawrence is a native small-town Kansan who grew up in Berryton, Kansas. He attended the University of Kansas and earned his undergraduate degree in May, 2003. While at KU and following graduation, he worked for six years as a technical writer, programmer, and project manager for Kansas City-area software companies, developing and deploying e-commerce web applications.

Mr. Lawrence received his Juris Doctor from Washburn University School of Law in May, 2008, graduating first in his class after earning the Shamberg Johnson Scholarship, the Flloyd "Nick" Cossman Scholarship, and the JL Weigand Notre Dame Legal Education Trust scholarship. He also received the top score in approximately two-thirds of all his law school classes.

Dan's academic excellence in the study of law combines with his IT experience to provide him with a rare perspective that is becoming increasingly valuable as network technology pervades every aspect of business and the law. Since joining Fleeson, he has been able to bring this knowledge to bear for the benefit of his clients. Thanks, in large part, to his knowledge of networking principles and electronic commerce, the firm exploited weaknesses in an opponent's shaky grasp of personal jurisdiction based on internet contacts to negotiate an advantageous, pennies-on-the-dollar settlement for its clients.

In another instance, he utilized his ability to understand and explain web-based applications and related security principles to persuade the Defense Criminal Investigative Service of the United States Office of the Inspector General to close a meritless, but potentially costly investigation of a government contractor client. His knowledge of networking principles - how information is stored, in what forms, where, and how it can become lost and destroyed - is invaluable to the resolution of electronic discovery issues that virtually every business must face.
Oil and Gas Law
Dan has seen both the transactional and litigation sides of the oil and gas coin, having assisted in lease negotiation as well as many aspects of the firm's traditional representation of royalty owners through class action and individual representation. With other members of the firm's oil and gas practice, he has extensively explored royalty payment and lease-related issues that are paramount concerns for Kansas royalty owners.
Government Contractor Defense/Kansas and Federal False Claims Act
Dan has participated in the defense of several prolonged "qui tam" lawsuits filed against government contractors under the federal False Claims Act, and has authored the first article regarding the new Kansas False Claims Act, which was modeled on the federal False Claims Act.
Appellate Practice
Dan has briefed appeals to the Kansas Court of Appeals, the Kansas Supreme Court, and the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, and has argued before the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. His research skills and the academic rigor which he applies to the study of law are a natural fit for all aspects of appellate practice.

If you are like the majority of solo and small-firm lawyers practicing today, you have more than enough work to do and not enough time to do it. Your days are filled with court appearances, appointments and phone calls, so complex research and writing tasks (and not everyone likes to do them) get pushed to evenings and weekends, taking time away from family and other activities. I help other attorneys represent their own clients better by working as an independent contractor and taking some of these time-consuming tasks off their hands.

Research and writing is all I do because it is what I enjoy most about the practice of law - I'm not a natural trial lawyer. I decided to seek new challenges and redirect my career after eight years of handling a variety of matters in small towns in Kansas (over 400 new files opened in 1999!). During my third year in law school, I interned for the Hon. James A. Pusateri of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Kansas in Topeka, then transitioned to a paid clerkship after graduation. I also spent a couple of years in private practice in Kansas City, handling mostly bankruptcy and probate matters.

I have argued cases before the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals, the Kansas Supreme Court and Court of Appeals, and the Missouri Court of Appeals, and I authored the winning briefs leading to the following published decisions: State v. Horn, ___ Kan. ___, 206 P.3d 526 (No. 100,373, 5/8/2009); State v. Fitzgerald, 286 Kan. 1124, 192 P.3d 171 (2008); State v. Anderson, 281 Kan. 896, 136 P.3d 406 (2006); U.S. Postal Serv. v. Dewey Freight System, Inc., 31 F.3d 620 (8th Cir. 1994); and Boatmen's First Nat. Bank v. Hawkeye-Security Ins. Co., 861 S.W.2d 600 (Mo.App.W.D. 1993). While clerking for Judge Pusateri, I drafted his decision in In re Carter, 125 B.R. 832 (Bankr.D.Kan. 1991).

You get predictable and dependable assistance from an experienced attorney when you need it, without the overhead expenses when you don't. You maintain control of your case and keep the client you've worked hard to cultivate. I have the same duties under the Model Rules regarding confidentiality and avoiding conflicts of interest. If you "closely supervise" my work or adopt it as your own and pay me a flat or hourly fee, you may not need to disclose to your client that I am working on the case - or that I may not be admitted to practice in your jurisdiction. An ABA Ethics Opinion (No. 00-420) instructs that if the total fee charged to your client is reasonable, you may add a surcharge (i.e., profit) to any of my fees billed as legal services.

Of late, my practice mostly involves criminal defense, with some civil and domestic work. I work with attorneys at every litigation phase, from trial through appeal. Regarding most of the documents I've posted, the problem with being a legal ghostwriter - just like being a law clerk for a bankruptcy judge or an associate at a law firm - is that some of my best work does not appear under my own name. I have written for each of these attorneys on more than one occasion, and I expect that each would tell you that he or she makes minimal, if any, editing to my work.

"Ghostwriting" is my "dream job." My laptop, cell phone and wireless broadband service mean that I am rarely "out of the office," even when I'm on the road to Kansas Jayhawk basketball games! Call me and let's talk about what I can do for you.
