I am a partner at Ward, Anderson, Porritt, Bryant, Lord & Zachary in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, where I practice personal injury/insurance defense litigation. Our firm handles insurance defense litigation and insurance coverage matters throughout the states of Michigan and Ohio. My practice is concentrated in in auto liability (first and third party no-fault), premises liability, general civil liability, insurance coverage litigation, medical malpractice, other areas personal injury and property damage litigation, and appellate practice. I'm a lifelong Michigan resident and attended undergrad (Business Administration) and law school at Wayne State University in Detroit. When I am not working or engaged in my responsibilities for the NCWBA and the WLAM, I enjoy photography, photo-editing, and attending painting classes as well as spending time with family and friends.

 

I've been involved with women's bar organizations since before I graduated from law school because I believe women should support women, and although women have made great strides in the legal profession and in society, there is still work to be done. My involvement in women's bar organizations has provided me with valuable professional and personal connections, and I feel privileged to continue my service and to give back to these organizations now and in the future.
