People who hire reputable speakers are often looking to legitimize themselves through someone elses reputation.

Those of you with negativity need to get a life (and find something more productive to do with your time...it is apparent and unfortunate for you that you don't have anything better to do when you come home at night). And please get used to seeing the photos on the subway...as the contract has just been renewed (since it has had great success). John is a person that has well-deservedly earned the public's trust over the years, which is more than any of you can ever declare. And Wilens and Baker is a reputable firm that has chosen a well-respected New Yorker to represent them. Hit the pavement and stop riding the subways if you find the ads too offensive. Turns out he has helped an endless number of people who didn't know where else to turn. Have you? Perhaps you should spend your time doing something more productive for society, rather than trying to destroy others' well-earned reputations.<br /><br />P.S. I also happen to be an attorney so if you wish challenge me on any of this, feel free.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317514006514876850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-86807971452207423312009-06-14T21:53:07.574-07:002009-06-14T21:53:07.574-07:00In many jurisdictions, it is illegal for a non-law...In many jurisdictions, it is illegal for a non-lawyer to hold himself out as a lawyer.

In other words, were it not for the disclaimer, some people might be misled into believing that Roland is promoting this law firm in his official capacity.
