Let’s be real — military family law isn’t for the faint of heart.
PCS orders, deployments, custody across state lines — it’s like playing 4D chess with a stopwatch.
But you? You’re built for this.

Join us for a power-packed CLE where Col. Rod Patrick dives into the unique challenges and solutions of military family law.
We’ll cover the regs, the roadblocks, and the real-world strategies that make a difference for military families.

Bonus?
Every attendee gets a FREE NOBA YETI tumbler (value:  $50)
Because your coffee deserves to be as unshakable as your legal skills.

Speaker: Roderick Patrick, retired Army Reserve Colonel
Col. Patrick served for over 32 years as both an Infantryman and as a Military attorney.
