I went to the DREIA meeting last week and it consists of a short networking/meet and mingle time at the beginning where different companies present their products.The core event consists of several speakers giving presentations.Looking at the majority of people who are interested in the meet up group in this thread, I think there will be mostly newbies.I don't want it to be a case of the blind leading the blind.There are only a couple of experienced professionals who have expressed interest in attending.

If you call the attorney with your friend present on the speaker phone and together ask all of the questions you want.Then you answers come straight from the Horses Mouth,and you both will know what's up.Any answers in here would just be guesses.Good Luck!
