"He certainly is an expert in this field"

Joan B

"No PowerPoint slides, just a Word writeup and nothing was ever shared onscreen. Also a very short set of materials compared to most of the family law seminars I attend."

Patrick C

"It was not as interesting as I thought "

Daniel S

"It felt like I could have just read the materials myself. Not interactive, no slides, no examples, just reading the materials to us."

Karen S

"would like some of his language "

Merle S

"Very informative and explained in plain English."

Laura C

"This area of family practice is not well understood, but very important - especially for those of us who practice in military communities. I appreciate the Bar putting on this seminar and Mr. Willick sharing his expertise with us."
