Notability concerns. While this individual is involved in civic organizations and so forth, there seems to be a lack of independent, third-party references about him (all info from the articles comes from this person's law firm, organizations in which he is involved, press releases, and so forth). The article is also an autobiography, created by its subject itself, which is problematic Neutralitytalk 03:24, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
