Excellent all slides were relevant, clear, accurate and to the point plus actually useful to apply in my business. Richard is a great presenter and one of the best I have encountered at making a difficult topic interesting, (he) brought the course to life by using examples to explain points of law from his vast experience with litigation matters throughout his legal and commercial career.
