I will Promptly notify other counsel, court, or relevant parties when canceling or rescheduling events to avoid inconvenience and enable efficient use of time.
Regarding calendar conflicts, I will arrange to accommodate counsel by rescheduling dates for hearings, depositions, meetings, and other related events.
I will never seek an extension of time solely for unjustified delay or to gain a tactical advantage.
I will never file or serve motions or pleadings to unfairly restrict opposing counsel's opportunity to respond.
I will never initiate communication with a judge without the knowledge or presence of opposing counsel concerning a matter at issue before the court.
I will consistently agree to undisputed relevant matters when their proof is evident, and there is no valid reason, based on good faith, to withhold such stipulations.
I will promptly engage in discussions with opposing counsel to explore settlement options and will not deceitfully present the possibility of settlement to impede discovery or delay the trial process.
When required, I will accurately and comprehensively document oral understandings in writing, share a copy with opposing counsel for review, and explicitly disclose any matters not agreed upon before including them.
Congratulations Debra Freid! #abota #congrats #celebrate #members #officers
Congratulations Cameron Getto! #abota #congrats #celebrate #members #officers
Congratulations Robert Buchanan! #abota #congrats #celebrate #members #officers
I will honor all explicit promises and agreements, whether oral or written, and fulfill all obligations implied by the circumstances or local customs in good faith.
Congratulations Amy Schlotterer! #abota #congrats #celebrate #members #officers
Congratulations Judith Susskind! #abota #congrats #celebrate #members #officers
Congratulations Michael Janes! #abota #congrats #celebrate #members #officers
I will only pursue court sanctions if fully justified by the circumstances necessary to protect a client's legitimate interests and after making a genuine attempt to resolve the matter informally with opposing counsel.
I will refrain from attributing evil motives or improprieties to opposing counsel unless there is justifiable cause.

MY CURRENT SITUATION: Working on my Coleman A. Young feature. Legendary Detroit mayor died on Nov. 29, 1997. @wendellanthony, @DETROITNAACP president, told me today that Young was "a towering figure and an icon." Share your thoughts with me.
From our @PlunkettCooney family to yours, we hope you have a wonderful holiday!
On this day in 1952: Coleman A. Young is re-elected as executive secretary of the National Negro Labor Council during the organization’s convention in Cleveland. Young, who was raised in Detroit, trained as a Tuskegee Airman member during World War II.
