Inside and outside the courtroom, in mediation, town meetings, board and law firm meetings, and during client counseling, adeptness at formal presentations can be critical.

This seminar is designed to enhance the effectiveness of professionals’ presentations to internal and external audiences. (print program description (pdf))
