Cassandra Hartman has just returned from a continuing legal education seminar entitled "Drafting Effective Wills and Trusts."

"It is important that legal assistants of the McDermott Law Firm be as educated as possible concerning their areas of expertise.  Ms. Hartman benefited greatly from attending this attorney-level educational seminar regarding the drafting of wills and the providing of life and estate planning services to our clients," John A.
