This full-day training program is specifically designed for attorneys in practice for less than five years and law students. Participants learned from judges, judicial staff and expert attorneys on how to navigate the court system and best represent clients. Among those taking part in the program were (left to right) Christian Fend, Victoria King of Oakland County Circuit Court, Road Commission for Oakland County General Counsel Jennifer Henderson, Probate Court Chief Judge Jennifer Callaghan, Circuit Court Chief Judge Jeffery Matis, Jack Halford, Ava Keranen, and OCBA President-elect Kari Melkonian of Fieger Law.
