Thank you for the opportunity to serve as the 35th President of the Michigan Chapter of ABOTA. It is an honor to serve in this capacity, especially among so many friends and colleagues. The last year has proven to be very difficult as we have not met together as a group. I have learned that the members of this group are especially social in nature and greatly enjoy each other’s company. Looking ahead to this year, we have planned two events that will hopefully allow us to get together in person. Below is a list of important events for this upcoming year...

Law School Liaison
The Michigan Chapter of ABOTA has established a new position of Law School Liaison, and Tim Lessing will serve as the first individual to occupy this role. This position (see link below) was created to enhance our Chapter relationships with the law schools in Michigan. We offer a wide variety of educational programming and related services and it is critical to our mission to foster the development of future trial attorneys.
Tim is a passionate advocate of the ABOTA mission as is appropriate for an accomplished trial attorney. We look forward to working with him in the coming year.
