We are pleased to announce shareholder Katie Pacynski was selected to Michigan Lawyers Weekly’s 2021 class of “Up & Coming Lawyers.”

The annual award spotlights lawyers in their first ten years of practice who have established names for themselves by displaying the ambition, drive, and accomplishments that distinguish them from their peers. Michigan Lawyers Weekly celebrated Katie and her fellow honorees at a virtual awards presentation on June 10, 2021.

She prides herself on delivering excellent legal representation and exceptional client service.
