PODCAST

Becoming Counsel

Becoming Counsel is a podcast to really just help me study. I plan on creating quick episodes to review key legal concepts so that I can review them on the fly. I didn’t pass the first time, so I hope that these episodes will help me stay immersed in the law and reinforce what I’m learning.
