Her seminars are well worth every bit of time and money needed to reap the rewards. Every lawyer (and every business person) with even the smallest amount of required public speaking appearances should take her seminar or hire her as a private coach.” June 18, 2010

1st Jennifer Post
hired Faith as a Seminar/Education in 2009
“Whether it is anti-SLAPP law, civil appeals and writs, or public speaking seminars and webinars, Faith Pincus always delivers with top-notch speakers and superb written materials and practice guides. In addition to working with Faith as SLAPP seminar panelist, I have attended a number of Pincus professional education seminars including the writs seminar with Pablo Drobny which I thought was outstanding.
For a great value in continuing education, Pincus seminars are the obvious choice.

1st Nicole Kuklok-Waldman
hired Faith as a Speaking Trainer in 2008
“After 25 years of public speaking both in court and at bar association and commercial events, I took Faith's three and a half hour Public Speaking Seminar. Four days later, I gave the best public presentation I have ever given in my entire professional career.
My post-Pincus Seminar was 100% better than any pre-Pincus Seminar I've ever given.
If THAT doesn't convince you to run out and take one of Faith's public speaking seminars -- or hiring her as a communications consultant -- I don't know what would.
AMAZING results instantaneously. Go for it!” November 14, 2007
