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 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 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 and lecturing
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 6 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.
