A Fire Medic Perspective: The top five things that Legal Counsel  wants Emergency Responders to know.

Bloom of the Bloominghill Group, a consultant, coach, attorney and educator for emergency services that you may have heard present at EMS Today, EMS World and other national and regional conference events.
