Some Testimonials from Past Participants of the Course

Participants’ testimonials from the Lagos and Abuja programs last year have been simply amazing, sensational, and remarkable. Just see for yourself:

 

“I must confess that there are not so many other trainings/workshops that I’ve benefited more than at the Blockchain for Lawyers 101 event organized by eBlockbuzz and Infusion Lawyers. Even when I had to take a couple of minutes off, I couldn’t wait to return. There was vital information in every slide that no one could afford to miss. I recommend it to every lawyer, even if not interested in tech. You would learn tricks and skills that would help make a lawyer’s life even simpler and more productive. You would also learn new information on both old and new areas of the law that could impact your pocket and position your practice for the future. I will definitely attend Blockchain for Lawyers 2.0”- David Ashaolu, Velma, Abuja

 

“Blockchain for Lawyers 101 was very interesting and stimulating. The Course which was presented in parts was quite comprehensible and the presentation was very commendable too.
