"Following very positive discussions with several attorneys who attended PLI courses, I decided to look into the organization's full range of programs. Doing so led me to discover the breadth of PLI's offerings which potentially could satisfy, to a large extent, the educational needs of our entire Legal Function -- attorneys, paralegals, administrative support, and management. As a result, DuPont Legal became a Privileged Member in 2007, and PLI has certainly lived up to our expectations."
