Provider Profile: Dell & Schaefer This week we introduce a new provider of free CLE: the Dell & Schaefer law firm. Do you remember the helpful lawyer mentor, seen in movies and on TV, always available to share crusty old wisdom with fresh new associates? Today, it can be hard to find your Rumpole of the Old Bailey, especially if you're in solo practice, but Dell & Schaefer are the modern equivalent: experienced lawyers providing their expertise to all comers, via web video. You can register for their Disability Insurance Claims course any time day or night and, unlike Rumpole, the video never gets tired of being played over and over! It would be a better world if more law firms did something like this; 4freeCLE will be happy to publicize any who do! Kudos to Dell & Schaefer! Was This Forwarded To You?
