The following comments were sent by people who attended the Symposuim:
 

  • "...thanks for hosting another fantastic Symposium."
  • "...kudos on a great event – your diversity of topics and guests were scintillating even for a “recovering lawyer” like myself! It’s so great to witness the success of the practice you have inspired and grown over the years – just saw the blurb in the Star Tribune re: Barry’s big win on behalf of your client vs. Sugarland – congrats!”
  • "Thank you so much for an informative and engaging day. You do great things in our community and it was impressive (daunting) to see so many heads in one room. I learned a lot — including my ADHD aversion to estate law — and I plan on joining you again next year.”
  • "I just wanted to thank you and your staff for the great work you did on last Friday's symposium. It was really well done.”
