What Attorneys Are Saying About Rachelle's Courses

Very informative and timely course. Highly recommend.

Manohar S

This is another excellent presentation from Lexvid. The instructor is extremely knowledgeable and presents the course in a very interesting, yet very understandable manner that should make all of us, men and women, really think about the issues of gender bias and discrimination. This should be taken by all attorneys.
