What our clients say

Intellectual Property Basics – Webinar Series

A number of my colleagues said it was the best overview of IP they have ever heard. Intellectual property is an issue we deal with every day and I have no doubt that this seminar will improve the quality of our advice that we can give to our clients.

Cameron has done an excellent job of presenting the materials in a clear and interesting fashion, as well as succinctly answering questions promptly when raised.
