*COVID-19 Update for 2021: The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania issued a Court Order temporarily waiving the 6 hour limitation on distance learning credits for 2021 compliance deadlines. Attorneys in Pennsylvania may now complete all 12 hours of their 2021 CLE requirements through approved distance learning activities. Therefore all PA attorneys can now satisfy their entire requirement with our DVDs, Audio CDs, Online & iOS/Android App courses! PA Continuing Legal Education Board Notice
