Forward Guidance
We believe that our presence at industry events, including state and national trial associations, should commence in 2021 as vaccination levels increase in the United States and state mandated closures begin to relax. Coupling this with our digital assets and marketing efforts should continue to positively affect our growth in both our litigation and payment processing verticals in the future.
