Customer Reviews
A bit concerned
As a fellow lawyer, I get the willies every time I see a lawyer broadly distribute what many could consider legal advice -- first it was legal websites, now podcasts. If QDnow insists upon continuing this podcast, it would seem wise to more clearly qualify and limit the statements. Merely providing a brief disclaimer at the outset is risky.
Clear, interesting information.
Great beginning! Free legal info is always a benefit. This show is worth checking out!
to the point
quick and to the point. very practical and informative with no unecessary qualitative remarks. good stuff. Certainly worth a listen.
