The Dallas Bar Association’s Appellate Law Section and Business Litigation Section are sponsoring a joint continuing education seminar on Tuesday, June 3, 2014, from 12:00pm to 2:00pm at the Belo Mansion.  The session will be led by Professor and best-selling author Paul Hendrickson. Professor Hendrickson presented a similar program last year that was so popular nobody wanted to leave when the time was up.  As a result, he’s been given an extra hour to present his program this year. This year’s program promises to put more “snap, crackle, and pop” in your legal writing.
