ICBA introduces meet the judges event

The ICBA welcomes both its members and non-members to attend its first annual Meet the Judges Event. This event is scheduled to take place at Cooley Law School on Thursday, January 19, 2012 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Please mark the date on your calendar now and join us for some hors d'oeuvres and a cocktail. The ICBA has invited Justices, Judges, Magistrates, and Referees from all levels of the State and Federal Courts to join us. We hope to have Justices from the Michigan Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals as well as Circuit Judges from Ingham, Eaton, and Clinton Counties attending. Invitations have been extended to State Court Magistrates and Referees from those same counties. We have also invited District Court Judges and Magistrates from the Western District of Michigan. Not only is this a perfect opportunity to meet members of the judiciary in a casual atmosphere, but it is a great opportunity for local attorneys and law students who do not belong to the ICBA to apply their admission fee to a year of membership in the ICBA. The non-member admission fee of $50 (and the $25 student fee) includes not only two beverage tickets at the bar and hors d'oeuvres, but also a one year membership to ICBA for the 2012 year (a value of $75 to $125 depending on years of practice). Being a member of the ICBA has many benefits including: * Social events including the Shrimp Dinner, Holiday Party, Golf Outing, and Annual Dinner allowing our members to meet on an informal basis throughout the year. * Briefs which provides substantive articles on many areas of the law as well as the latest information on happenings in our local legal community. * A website (www.inghambar.org) containing current ICBA event information as well as links to many helpful legal research and Court sites. * Numerous practice sections presenting specialized CLE programs and seminars. * Luncheon Lecture Series and other seminars covering a variety of timely and interesting legal topics. * Bench/Bar conferences designed to enhance communications between members of the bar and the judiciary. * Numerous civic functions including Law Day Activities and Peer Mediation Projects with local school districts. * An online membership directory as part of our website where other attorneys and members of the public can view your profile if you so desire. We look forward to seeing you on the 19th of January. Published: Thu, Nov 24, 2011
