Online seminar designed for women public defenders

The State Appellate Defender Office will conduct a virtual seminar titled “Own Who You Are” on Friday, Jan. 14, from 2 to 3 p.m. via Zoom.

SADO Managing Attorney Jessica Zimbelman will lead a discussion for women public defenders and team members.

As women, female attorneys may have a tendency to want to become something they are not in professional settings, according to organizers of the event.

If labeled as too aggressive, they may subsequently try to fade to the background.  If labeled as quiet, they may try to be louder, which feels unnatural. This dynamic can be especially challenging for public defenders, who at times may be the only women in the courtroom.

At SADO, Zimbelman chairs the Court Rules and Legislation Committee and co-chairs the Criminal Defense Attorneys of Michigan Rules & Law Committee.

To register for the seminar, visit www.sado.org/go/you.
