It is difficult to put a dollar value on the experience of being a Thunderdome class member other than to say that money alone could not purchase such a valuable experience. The participation of the best family law practitioners in Tallahassee, if not the state, and local judges and magistrates, as instructors and mentors provided invaluable legal education and networking access. Further, the Thunderdome class experience includes working on an actual family law case, giving class participants hands-on experience with serving a diverse range of clientele from the local community.
