State Bar of Michigan President-Elect Lori A. Buiteweg is inviting lawyers to apply now for appointments to committees for the 2015-2016 bar calendar year.
Service on committees is voluntary and occurs through an appointment process that begins with an electronic application that must be filed by April 24.
Nearly 30 standing committees work to implement the State Bar Strategic Plan, build programs that benefit lawyers and the public and improve the administration of justice in Michigan.
Appointments are expected to be finalized before Sept. 1.
More information about the committees can be obtained at www.michbar.org or by contacting Candace Crowley at ccrowley@mail.michbar.org or 517.346.6319.
