How would you rate the value of the materials provided as part of the course?
Truly the best CLE I have attended in the over ten years I have been a licenced attorney in Texas. The speakers were each excellent. I enjoyed the back and forth between the various speakers. The material was practical, detailed and clear. Thank you.
well done and thorough both for basics and current state of the law
great course/information
Really good
informative
I think part 3 was the most helpful. Specific provisions to use, specific situations to think about, rather than section 1 and 2, which were a little more theoretical.
very intuitive and helpful
