The State Bar of Michigan will present a seminar, “Lawyer Trust Accounts: Management Principles & Record Keeping Resources,” on Tuesday, Feb. 28, from 1:15 to 4:45 p.m. at the State Bar of Michigan Michael Franck Building, 306 Townsend St. in Lansing.
This half-day ethics seminar will feature presentations on how to manage lawyer trust accounts, including how to effectively use forms, checklists, and other record keeping resources.
Organizers say the event, which is open to lawyers and their staff, is an excellent way to learn how to comply with Michigan Rules of Professional Conduct 1.15 and 1.15A.
Participants will receive practical information as well as materials prepared by the presenters: SBM Professional Standards Division Director Danon Goodrum-Garland, SBM Assistant General Counsel Nkrumah Johnson-Wynn, Professional Standards Assistant Counsel Alecia Ruswinckel, and Attorney Grievance Commission Senior Associate Counsel Rhonda Pozehl.
The registration fee is $50 for lawyers and $25 for non-lawyers.
The registration deadline is Feb. 24. No “walk-in” registrations will be accepted. To register, visit www.michbar.org/trustaccounts
