Testimonials
We have received instruction from foreign counsel recently who found us through the publication
The comprehensive range of guides produced by GTDT provides practitioners with an extremely useful resource when seeking an overview of key areas of law and policy in practice areas or jurisdictions which they may otherwise be unfamiliar with.
My experience with GTDT Online so far has been wonderful. It is so useful when dealing with multijurisdictional legal matters. Two thumbs up for such a great tool and my congratulations to all of you for making my life easier.
Such a database is a fantastic tool to get access to the "basics" of many legal areas, almost everywhere. I do believe that GTDT has a real future and, according to me, it's one of the best legal database I've ever had access to in these last 10 years.
