Tough Talk with Tony Gambone with Guest Matthew Crowley

I’m a venture lawyer, with a practice focused on assisting entrepreneurs in creating new businesses and achieving their goals for growth. I regularly represent startups, with startup clients representing at least 70% of my practice. I began my career in San Francisco at the height of the dotcom boom, practicing law with corporate finance groups including Pillsbury Madison & Sutro (now Pillsbury Winthrop) and Morrison & Foerster. After eight years of private practice, I moved into senior management with Evoke Software in 2001, serving as vice president and general counsel. In 2004, I joined the management team at Technicolor Home Entertainment Services in Camarillo, California, a division with revenues of $2 billion annually. In 2006, I established Crowley Corporate Legal Strategy to offer corporate legal services to entrepreneurs looking to start or grow their businesses.
