I have been personally involved in the private practice of commercial civil law continuously in Battle Creek, Michigan since 1975.  Martindale Hubbell, the only known confidential attorney peer review publication, has rated me as av and preeminent continuously since 1986.

My community involvement includes serving on Boards of Director of both our Battle Creek Y Center and the Sherman Lake Camp Y-Center with service for over 30 years, having served as board chair for both organizations.
