What Prior Attendees Have Said

You created an environment in which lawyers and judges over a two-day period felt they could converse freely, which is really extraordinary and likely never before done. Please know that I think you did an outstanding job putting this conference on. It was remarkable and so well-executed. Everyone there knew they were attending a special conference. Kudos and congratulations to you. Thank you for having me here, and for hosting us all.

Thank you Richard for creating and organizing a great Summit-Conference. It was so important and educational to have the interaction between judges and lawyers. It truly benefits both groups to do this. I think everyone had a great time and thought it was a very unique and worthwhile experience.

The diversity of the group was truly unique and very worthwhile…

Congratulations on putting on such a a great conference. Y’all do a great job with getting a broad range of speakers.

You are doing a remarkable job.

I think that you all hit a grand slam homerun! Every comment that I heard was superlative, closing with the words I hope I’m invited back. The most repeated compliment was the substance, which everyone thought was off the charts. When you get the substance right, done in the right way, then you have a success of the first order. Well done!!!

Very prestigious conference!

Game changing conference! It was substantive the best I have experienced in the MDL arena. Your excellence continues!

This Aspen Baylor Conference looks to be the Conference to end all Conferences and you should be very proud of how it is shaping up - every time I look at your Agenda and emails I am just awestruck by what you have put together.

Hope you got home and had time to reflect on the amazing conference and to bask in the glory of the huge and incomparable success. All of the other similar conferences pale in comparison.

It was amazing and I hope to be back next year.

It was a privilege to attend.

Truly amazing conference.

Great success.

The Conference was extremely well done; and the attendance of such prominent lawyers and equally importantly, members of the judiciary, led to meaningful and informative exchanges of ideas, etc.

Outstanding and I would not want to miss it.

Excellent event.

This is by far the best conference!!! The opportunities for networking are amazing. I love the fact that it is a limited number of people.

It was the best conference I’ve been to.

Excellent event.

Richard and Mark are maestros at this programing.

Very enjoyable and educational program.

I consider this invitation among the highest honors of my career and very much look forward both to contributing and attending.

Thanks for putting together a remarkable conference.

Great event.

You put on a truly excellent program.

It was incredible—both the venue and events.

The conference was absolutely amazing!! I would add that every single comment I heard was so positive, including some very lengthy post-event discussions with the attendees who rode with us to the Denver airport.

Very well done.

Wonderful conference. I learned a great deal and met some fabulous people.

You did an awesome job Richard! The entire event was superb.

Program was exceptional.

Amazing, as are all of your events.

Terrific event! It was a fabulous experience in every way.

Thanks again for including me in the Judicial Summit. I am certain there is no higher-caliber legal meeting anywhere.

All of the compliments are so accurate. Excellent program. This is one nobody wants to miss!!

It was excellent you outdid yourself.

You are one of one, only you could have made this in to what it has become.

Phenomenal seminar. You always put on fantastic symposiums, and this one was no exception!

Incredible opportunity to make connections and learn from the panel discussions.

Such a well devleoped program with excellent speakers. I learned so much and enjoyed getting to know some of the other participants.

Everything was absolutely first rate, and it was certainly one of the best substantive conferences I've ever attended.

Your invitation to this conference is an honor that will follow me across my career. As in everything in which you are involved as a leader, you always bring excellence and professionalism.

The MDL Judicial Forum you put together was beyond my expectations. Its “buzz” will go on for months. Thank you for the experience and the opportunity to participate in the conversation. I enjoyed every moment.

It was a spectacular conference.

Thank you for another successful summit. You have a gift for assembling a program.

What a great conference with excellent speakers! I always learn from the speakers. I know how much work you put into this — and it shows. Thank you also for your efforts in bringing everyone together in such a positive environment.

Kudos to you for an amazing Summit. You are the master of planning and execution from beginning to end. How something so fine-tuned can come off without a hitch is a joy to behold.

You thought of every detail. Was just a wonderful program, and I learned so much from hearing the perspectives of judges, defense counsel, and (especially) in-house counsel.

I want to thank you for allowing me to be included in the conference. I attended all the sessions and found them very interesting, especially seeing the intersection of the litigation with what goes on many years later within the trusts.

I saw your “hands on” leadership of the summit while we were at the event. From my experience organizing these types of meetings for LCJ and other organizations, I appreciate all that it takes to pull off one of these events and certainly appreciate all the constituencies you had to serve to pull a successful event off.

Great CLE program.

It was a fantastic conference as it was not only informative but allowed for networking and collaboration.

Thanks again for all your efforts to pull together another great conference!

Congratulations on an excellent conference.

Thanks for a spectacular conference. I am sure everyone came away with increased knowledge in handling MDLs.

You and Mark have put on an amazing summit two years in a row. It's an honor to be part of it.

Hands down, best event of the year…

Best conference in the country. You and Mark should be congratulated.

Having done CLE for over 50 years, I can say with certainty your MDL Judicial Summit is the most beneficial one experienced lawyers can attend. Thank you for your hard work in making it happen.

Thanks Richard, last year this was probably the best event I attended and look forward to attending in 2025…what a great format and I really enjoyed being on a panel with Judge Proctor…please send the invoice to my attention when it is time…thanks again!

The most impressive and important collection of talent and experience in our field.

It is an awesome conference. Your hard-work to bring people into the fold is appreciated and recognized!

always a great program

This is the marquee event for our world

Honored to be included. It’s the best conference of the year.

I feel honored and very blessed to be included. By far the best conference.

This most prestigious and informative Summit is viewed as the "best in class" event.

You have got all of this on the right track, as usual.

Thanks for all the hard work that goes into this summit. It’s the best one of the year.

You have put together a terrific conference; no surprise that you can’t accommodate everyone who wants to attend.

Impressive! First class.

Remarkable work, Richard.
