It was a group photo for the ages March 13 at Butzel Long’s annual meeting, which coincided with the 160th anniversary celebration for the Detroit based firm. Butzel Long traces its roots to 1854 “when Detroit’s economy was based on the Great Lakes shipping trade,” according to a spokesman for the firm. Justin Klimko, a graduate of Duke University Law School, is the current president of the firm. Richard Rassel, a University of Notre Dame alum who earned his law degree from the University of Michigan, serves as chairman of Butzel Long.
