Fellowship in ACTL is by invitation only after a very thorough investigation. It honors only the best attorneys in the country. They are chosen from trial lawyers on both sides and from many fields of litigation practice.
As stated on the ACTL website, fellowship is limited to "...only those who have demonstrated the very highest standards of trial advocacy, ethical conduct, integrity, professionalism and collegiality.” It is a singular honor usually reserved for people who have had a long and distinguished career. Few members are as young as Mike at the time of their induction. We are very proud of Mike.
