“I have been doing almost all of my continuing legal education for the last twenty years with NBI and it’s been a great experience and I’ve never had a problem”
“The live webinar I attended was better than any live in-person seminar I ever remember attending. To enjoy it from the comfort of my home was an added bonus, especially since my office was destroyed by the recent hurricanes here in Louisiana. Thanks NBI.”
“I find the courses that I have taken have been presented with knowledgeable attorneys presenting them. I have purchased several on-line and on-demand which both have been very convenient for me. I like the 3 hour classes because it allows me to have time to tend to my clients and their cases without being out-of-pocket for a full day.”
“I enjoyed the Medical Record Analysis for Paralegals: Chronologies, Summaries and Expense Itemizations. It was presented professionally in a timely manor. I enjoyed all of the Information. Thank You!”
“They have continued, year after year to provide excellent continued education products. I would highly recommend them for all your webinar and conference needs.”
“Really wonderful way to obtain Continuing Legal Education, and beyond the minimums, to gain expertise and knowledge of processes and topics encountered less frequently.”
“With respect to the September 15, 2020 webinar on "how to cross examine vocational experts" Meredith Marcus and Dana Duncan as speakers were really focused on the social security practice with respect to this topic. The other speaker, Dennis O'Brien, on the substance of cross examination was more general and as his practice is not limited to social security disability but includes also apparently personal injury and workers compensation cases. He spoke about ethics as well and again this presentation was broader than the so security disability practice which actually has some unique aspects to it whereby the Social Security Administration, for example, requires attorneys to submit "all evidence" even if unfavorable and there are special procedures about withdrawing as the attorney. Mr. O'Brien, for the ethics portion of his talk did you have a concrete example of a colleague who fortunately had documented well in the file advice to the client when years later it was inquiry made about that former client's conduct with Social Security.
Meredith Marcus did over some sample testimony with respect to cross examine the VE's that was helpful and Dana Duncan gave a number of examples of applying the claimant's specific case to the VE testimony.
I did have some technical issues during the webinar and that I would lose the audio but that may be I need to improve however I connected with NBI for this seminar. The tech support of NBI was helpful when I called and basically I just had to get out of the seminar and log back into the link I received an email but I had to do this several times throughout the program when the speaker would still be on the screen but I could not hear the presentation.”
