Getting answers straight from the bench
The National Business Institute presented “As Judges See It: Best (and Worst) Practices in Civil Litigation” on Thursday, Oct. 1, at the Detroit Marriott Southfield. Among those speaking at the program were (seated, left to right) Wayne County Circuit Court Judge Patricia Fresard; moderator Mark Wisnewski of Kitch, Drutchas, Wagner, Valitutti, &?Sherbrook; and Oakland County Circuit Court Judge Rae Lee Chabot; along with (standing, left to right) Genesee County Circuit Court Judge Joe Farah; retired Judge Dan Ryan; and Macomb County Circuit Court Judge Rick Caretti. The course offered attorneys an opportunity to get answers to the questions they’ve always wanted to ask judges while learning what to do (and what not to do) to speed up cases and build credibility with the court.
