“Seniors attending this program appreciate receiving expert information that they can understand. Attorney Spano speaks on a number of topics. He is driven by audience needs and questions and replies for their understanding, which is important. The Massachusetts Bar Association offers the opportunity for us to present an expert informational program for our older adults, which we appreciate and would not want to do without.”
