A
member of the State Bar of Michigan for over 38 years, I am currently a Shareholder with Foster Swift Collins & Smith, PC, in its Southfield office where my areas of practice include commercial litigation,
insurance defense and coverage, sporting and recreational liability, agribusiness law and liability, and equine law. I have tried
cases before juries in 4 states (Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and Connecticut) and have been admitted as pro hac vice
counsel in 21 jurisdictions across the country. During my State Bar presidency, business continued with the assistance
of lawyers in my firm and with the cooperation of fellow counsel, clients, and judges. I'm a past member of the ABA House of Delegates
representing Michigan in its delegation. Previously, I was a Vice-Chair of the ABA-TIPS Animal Law Committee. Aside
from my law practice, I enjoy speaking on liability, insurance, and risk management at seminars, conventions, CLE programs,
and conferences across the country. My in-person speaking engagements span 29 states. I also enjoy writing. I'm the author of 4 books and contributed to or co-authored
4 other ABA books. The ABA published my newest book in 2019. In addition, I've written over
425 published articles on legal subjects.
I'm a graduate of Emory College and Emory Law School. On a personal level, my father was a lawyer,
and my husband is a lawyer. My hobbies include all things horses.
