Manage episode 460907155 series 3489912
From sunny Cabo San Lucas, host Dan Ambrose and Ryan Skiver of Skiver Bradley Law Firm encourage trial lawyers to take advantage of learning opportunities available in 2025. “It's the greatest time in the world to be a trial lawyer. Everything is here for you. All the skills. You can learn it,” Dan says.
A frequent participant in the TLU suite of educational courses, Ryan encourages lawyers to take advantage of programs like TLU On Demand. “One of the things that I've kind of always done is set aside time for learning,” Ryan says. One place for lawyers to learn this year is Huntington Beach at TLU Beach, scheduled for June 4-7.
If you’re a trial lawyer in Phoenix, and you’d like to work with Ryan on perfecting your presentation skills, contact him by phone or email.
