Eneida (Brooklyn, NY)

In general, the speakers were able to raise and discuss in great depth issues that seemed to be the most relevant concerning the need to create and implement corporate compliance manuals and procedures that would satisfy state, national and international regulatory agencies.

Dan (Hastings-on-Hudson, NY)

Good information, well presented.

Rafael A (Miami, FL)

An excellent overview of the general objectives and benefits of corporate compliance programs (whether for FCPA, Sarbanes Oxley, OFAC, etc.).

Paul J. (New York, NY)

very good general introduction to the topic.

Elizabeth (Chicago, IL)

Good course, but I need more information. It would really help if there was a more substantive discussion of how to protect the privilege, how to prevent undesired disclosures, and practical steps to make sure advice is not turned into a privilege free zone. I'll go to the library to find cases on this, as it wasn't fully discussed here. Perhaps a followup course would be a great idea here (hint) to help those who don't do this sort of advising as a matter of course. These guys know their stuff. They just need to explain more of it for the uninitiated. Thanks.
