In your legal practice, client relationships can often be as complex and challenging as the cases themselves! Regardless of your area of law, you no doubt have had to work with difficult clients whose behaviors or personalities required you to expend inordinate effort to calmly handle both them and your interactions with them. Join us for this unique webcast for proven strategies to work your way through (not out of) even the most nightmarish client relationships.
