great job!
Very informative. Improvement from 2019 Advanced Administrative Law course. Presentations were relevant even though our state agency does not use SOAH. Especially liked Prof. Beal's input!
Great course. Very well done.

Have you ever regretted not pursuing an action or negotiation prior to SOAH? Have you ever thought there might be alternative ways to settle your case prior to SOAH that no one ever uses? And was there ever a time you wished you would have worked-up your licensing case during the agency’s investigation instead of after the SOAH complaint filing? This presentation’s goal is to alleviate these concerns and answer these questions.
