Very practical advice.

Sharon Druker

Robinson Sheppard Shapiro

I enjoyed the speakers overview of how to do asset protection planning and that each topic was discussed without having it get too complicated.

Ryan Alexeev

North County Legal

The discussion of private equity fund issues and extraterritorial application of alter ego and controlled group liability was particularly helpful.

Frank P. VanderPloeg

Dentons

The speakers were very experienced in not only the laws and issues but the Federal Reserve's policies and past practices. This was a timely topic in recognition of recent Dodd Frank changes.

Terrence J. Grasmick

Manatt Phelps & Phillips

I particularly enjoyed listening to other's questions and concerns during the programs Q&A session.
