Honoring untold stories
The Women Lawyers Association of Michigan recently conducted its 108th Annual Meeting at the Westin Book Cadillac in Detroit. This year’s annual meeting celebrated the theme “Tell Her Story,” embodying WLAM’s commitment to honoring and preserving the often untold narratives of women who have shaped the legal profession in Michigan and beyond. Happy to welcome attendees to the event were WLAM board members (left to right) Abril Siewert of Valdes Law PLLC, Angela Medley of Medley Law PLLC, Kirsten J. Silwanowicz of the Detroit Housing Commission, Alexandria Casperson of the Michigan Department of Attorney General, and Macomb County Circuit Court Judge Tanya A. Grillo. The meeting concluded with a closing program on Saturday, April 25, at Michigan Central Station in Detroit.
