Ronald L

"Uncertain answers about issues that they should be very familiar with. The first 23 minutes were torture. Misuse of term "obedience" when the standard for Arizona is "duty of due care.""

Bryan A

"Too much chit chat and war stories, and not enough fundamental legal discussion. Reference to Arizona statutes lacking, which control much of nonprofit governance."
