This black-tie affair commemorates the WBA’s 90-plus years of commitment to diversity, excellence in the legal profession, and improvement to the quality of life in the metropolitan Detroit area.
The Barristers’ Ball is the signature fundraiser for the Wolverine Bar Foundation, the charitable arm of the WBA.
