‘Uncivil Landscape’ focus of Women’s Series, May 21

The Eastern District of Michigan Bar Association will present the second iteration of its Women’s Series on “How to Survive and Thrive in an Uncivil Landscape” Wednesday, May 21, beginning at 4:30 p.m. at the offices of Kerr Russell, 500 Woodward, Ste. 2500, in Detroit.

This topic came from discussions in the first event, where unfortunately, the lack of civility in the practice of law rose as a topic as one of the most dissatisfying aspect of many women’s’ careers in the law.

This second iteration of Women’s Series will include food and wine along with a presentation, time for socializing and networking, and smaller group discussions.

Panelists include U.S. District Court Judge Brandy McMillion, Eastern District of Michigan; U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Maria Oxholm, Eastern District of Michigan; Kathy Bogas of Bogas & Koncius; Tina Gray of Tina S. Gray PC; Nikisha Chaney and Jennifer Salvatore of Salvatore, Prescott, Porter, & Porter; Jennifer Grieco of Altior Law; Michelle Crockett of Honigman; and retired Judge Victoria Roberts of JAMS.

Cost for the event is $46 for members and $66 for non-members/guests. To register, visit https://edmibar.org and click on “events.”
