Thank you for all the prayers and support. I completed the last CMBA Board of Directors’ meeting for my CMBA presidency. Thanks to the outstanding CMBA staff, CMBA and CMBF Board members, and CMBA members for making this year a great success!

Check out the Legacy Series article in the April Bar Journal about Ulmer & Berne, a law firm started more than 100 years ago in Cleveland. Since local firms did not hire Jewish lawyers at that time, the founding partners started their own firm: https://t.co/ceM1yrmTwN
