We know how much everyone enjoys hearing Ron Usher share his stories and of course play his ukelele. This session was saved till the end, to ensure everyone experienced the entire weekend. Ron, Joan Letendre, and Hilde Deprez (fairly new to PAL), provided examples and discussed questions and concerns raised with PAL over the past few months. Topics included changes to law and practice, undertakings, due diligence, communication challenges, and practice implications of recent Court cases.
