“I enjoyed the information and the support I felt from experienced members of the criminal defense community.”
“Nothing was redundant. It was small enough where I could hear without distraction and each presentation hit the target. The presenters were well prepared and brought practical and readily useable tools and information for my practice.”
“This is one of the best conferences I've attended. Great presenters with relevant and important topics.”
