Michigan AAML chapter to host national meeting
The Michigan chapter of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML) will host the meeting of the Executive Committee of the AAML at Weber’s Inn, Ann Arbor, Sept. 13-15.
National AAML President Ken Altschulerr, a resident of Maine and a graduate of the University of Michigan, said, “I’ve been looking forward to coming back to my alma mater for this meeting” ever since he assumed his role as national president. AAML Michigan Chapter President Richard “Ric” Roane, of Warner Norcross & Judd in Grand Rapids, has asked Bloomfield Hills attorney Richard Victor to chair the event. Victor is a former member of the National Board of Governors of the AAML, and is the founder of the Victor & Victor law firm.
As part of the three-day event, the Michigan chapter will hold a state chapter meeting, followed by a cocktail reception and dinner with the national executive board on Friday evening starting at 6 p.m. at Weber’s Inn. On Saturday, the national executive board will hold its meeting, which will be followed by an excursion to the University of Michigan football game against Massachusetts. This will be the first time the national executive committee has selected Michigan to host one of its four annual national board meetings.
