Kaplen sworn in as Vice President, New York State Academy of Trial Lawyers

By Michael Kaplen

ADVERTISEMENTS

I am honored to report that I was sworn in last evening as a Vice President of the New York State Academy of Trial Lawyers at a membership reception and ceremonies in Albany, New York by a member of the New York State Court of Appeals, the Honorable Victoria Graffeo.

Justice Graffeo spoke on important initiatives in New York State on improving civil access to justice and her commitment to open the courthouse to all seeking legal redress.

The Academy is a state wide organization of trial attorneys that maintains a strong commitment to protect, preserve and enhance the civil justice system, while working to rebuild and improve the image of the legal profession. It is truly an honor to be a part of this fine organization.

The Academy's membership consists of plaintiff and defense attorneys, members of the judiciary, non-judicial government employees, law professors, law clerks, law secretaries, paralegals and law students, each benefiting from the Academy's comprehensive approach toward advancing the legal profession while embracing the core values of our legal system.

As attorneys, we believe it is our collective responsibility to work to protect, preserve and enhance the civil justice system and I look forward to fulfilling this responsibility as an Academy Vice President.
