The State Bar of Michigan invites its members to attend, in person or virtually, a town hall meeting from 1-4 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 29, at the Michigan Hall of Justice, 925 West Ottawa St. in Lansing, to learn more about why the 21st Century Practice Task Force was formed and to offer insights, ideas and concerns.
The group was created in March 2015 to make recommendations on how the State Bar can best serve the public and support lawyers’ professional development in a rapidly changing legal marketplace. Since then, more than 150 SBM members have developed more than 100 ideas to move Michigan forward toward the best possible legal future.
Members who want to attend in person or are interested in virtual participation should make a reservation by e-mailing 21ctownhall@mail.michbar.org.
