Praise for The Watergate CLE

"As one of the members of the audience said yesterday, that was just about the best CLE program I have ever attended. The combination of the serious explanation of the new ethical standards with the exciting recollection of a dark but momentous period in our history was wonderful... All in all, it was a tour de force."
— Richard W. Pogue, former Managing Partner, Jones Day

"Gripping."
— Chicago Sun-Times, on event held at the Chicago office of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher and Flom LLP
