The Eastern District of Michigan Bar Association presented its third event in its Women’s Series with “Devil in the Details” on Thursday, January 8, at the offices of Warner Norcross + Judd in Detroit. Taking part in the program were (left to right) U.S. District Court Magistrate Judge Elizabeth Stafford, Eastern District of Michigan; EDMiBar President Charissa Potts of Freedom Law PC; Margaret Raben of Gurewitz & Raben PLC; Margaret Debler of Rosati, Schultz, Joppich, & Amtsbuechler PC; U.S. District Court Judge Nancy Edmunds, Eastern District of Michigan; Assistant U.S. Attorney Susan Fairchild; and Elizabeth Jolliffe of Your Benchmark Coach. Jolliffe kicked off the program with strategies for recognizing the details that can elevate—or detract from—a practice. Attendees then broke into small, judge-led discussion groups to explore practical topics including professional demeanor, general communication, Zoom meetings & virtual courtroom presence, and dress and appearance.
