Bio

Law school is tough. The bar exam is tougher. If you're struggling with grades, overwhelmed, facing probation, or staring down the bar exam, I get it. I've helped hundreds of students in your exact situation turn things around.

Law school is tough. The bar exam is tougher. If you're struggling with grades, overwhelmed, facing probation, or staring down the bar exam, I get it. I've helped hundreds of students in your exact situation turn things around.

What I Do: I'm a Super Lawyer with 35 years of experience in litigation and mediation, a former adjunct professor, and I taught CLE for the California State Bar. Whether you need help mastering core concepts, improving your grades, preparing for the bar exam, or getting back on track after academic difficulties, I can help.

Results: Most of my 1Ls on academic probation return to good standing. Among my 2023-2025 bar students (including multiple repeaters), most passed and are practicing law. After five attempts, one student worked with me and passed!

My Teaching Philosophy: No Socratic terror. No hiding the ball. Just real talk about what you need to know, delivered with enough dad jokes to keep you awake. We'll break down complex concepts into manageable pieces with hypos you'll understand, build your confidence, and develop practical skills that matter.

What We'll Cover: All Multistate subjects (Contracts, Torts, ConLaw, CivPro, CrimLaw, CrimPro, Property), every bar exam component (MBE, MEE, MPT, MPRE), plus IRAC/CREAC mastery, time management, anxiety management, and strategic studying.

I Work With: All law students from 1Ls to 3Ls, bar exam prep (first-time takers and repeaters), academic recovery, international students, special accommodations, and attorney and clerk mentoring.

If you're concerned about class rank, passing the bar or MPRE, this isn't just tutoring—it's about getting you on track to practice law!

I am an attorney and professional writer with 25+ years experience training college, grad, law school, and young lawyers how to write and speak using dynamic vocabulary.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

My first lesson was fantastic! Laurence is very kind and cares about the progress of his students. He provided me with excellent advice how to start my 1L with confidence!

The Best. Wouldn’t Pass Without.

I’m a slow reader and had trouble close to midterms. He got me ready and spent four hours on the first day! Very patient, very thorough. Will not disappoint!

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

I am a repeat Bar Exam taker, with my last attempt nearly three years ago. I decided to sit for the July 2025 Illinois UBE and was understandably nervous, given the significant time and financial investment. From our very first meeting, Lawrence has been incredible to work with. He has taught me entire subjects that I previously struggled with—both in law school and on past bar attempts—in a way that is clear, accessible, and easy to understand. Lawrence also tracks my progress and helps me develop a personalized study strategy that works for me. He is consistently available to answer questions and has been a source of encouragement during moments of frustration. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Lawrence is a fantastic teacher!

Lawrence has a deep mastery of black letter law and an exceptional ability to teach it to law students. He is always intentional in providing practical tips and strategies, delivering a well-rounded education that helps students master legal concepts. In addition, he’s engaging, challenges students to push themselves, encourages them to think critically, and overall is a fantastic teacher and mentor. If you’re looking for an excellent tutor during law school or for bar prep, I highly recommend giving Lawrence a try!

Brilliant is an understatement

There isn’t a subject Lawrence has not been able to teach me. He is always available to help me (despite being a very busy man). He doesn’t just know the subject, but has an incredible way of being able to explain it in a way that will stick. He adapts to anyone’s learning style. I have seen incredible improvement in my academics since beginning to work with Lawrence. Aside from his clearly amazing credentials, Lawrence is a great person who makes an hour fly by. If you haven’t already scheduled a class with him you are missing out!

Law School Expert

Professor Lawrence is patient and has a brilliant ability to understand my difficulties and suggest ways to make my future studies in law school the best possible. He guided me through applying to law school and the importance of maintaining quality of life and spending time with my family. Professor Lawrence has helped me overcome obstacles in the law school application process and also helped me to have the confidence that I can achieve it. English is not my first language, and I have been searching for a teacher who would understand this for a long time. I am glad I found Professor Lawrence, and I look forward to starting law school next year. I will continue to study with Professor Lawrence throughout university because I am confident he will help me develop the skills to be a good lawyer.

Extremely helpful bar exam tutor

I worked with Lawrence in the weeks leading up to the bar exam and his guidance was invaluable. Lawrence was responsive and quickly identified the support I needed to reach my exam goals. Not only did he provide me with great strategies and techniques for tackling each section of the bar efficiently, but he also helped me get back on track mentally so that I was in the right "space" for taking the exam. I would recommend Lawrence for anyone seeking bar exam support - my practice performance and mental performance both increased dramatically thanks to my work with Lawrence.

Amazing tutor, very helpful

Lawrence has been tutoring me for over a year now in various law school subjects and has not only helped me improve my grades but supported my overall legal education. He provides guidance and excellent advice from his own legal experience and helpful supplemental materials to help me better understand my class lectures. In addition to teaching doctrinal courses, he is also willing to be flexible and help research unique legal subjects from my elective courses. I highly recommend Lawrence as he is both a wonderful tutor and mentor.
