Oakland County adoptive families, Tuscola judge, Westland couple to be celebrated on Adoption Day
Following adoption finalizations, the program will include the presentation of the 2024 Daniel J. Wright Lifetime Achievement Award to Tuscola County Probate/Family Court Judge Nancy L. Thane and the 2024 Maura D. Corrigan Foster Family Lifetime Achievement Award to longtime foster parents Willie and Tammy Roman of Westland.
Held near Thanksgiving each year in celebration of National Adoption Month under the theme of “Giving Thanks for Families,” Adoption Day has become a holiday tradition, highlighting the importance of adoption and the needs of children in foster care to find a forever family. Many courts will publicly finalize adoptions, while others will hold informational events to reach potential adoptive parents.

‘Advanced Trial Training Program’ presented by FBA
During this program, experienced trials lawyers will use a mock case file to present best practices for each phase of a trail from pre-trial preparation through closing argument. It will also focus on proven strategies to mitigate the occurrence of unplanned challenges that inevitably arise during a trial and provide recommendations to overcome those challenges.
Among the program’s speakers will be Martha Olijnyk, Powell Miller, Mike Turco, Linda Watson, William Horton, and Michael Pitt.
The cost for this full-day program is $99 for FBA members and $175 for non-members and guests. Lunch and a closing reception with colleagues and peers is included.
