Sayde Ladov Outlines Agenda for Phila Bar Assoc 2009

Sayde Ladov took the helm of the Philadelphia Bar Association today – outlining her agenda for 2009. She was welcomed by outgoing Chancellor, A. Michael Pratt, and flanked by Chancellor Elect, Scott F. Cooper. Rather than try to recap her speech, suffice it to say that she did an excellent job and there was plenty of media in the room. Here are a few articles for you to check out:

I also want to personally congratulate the new officers and members of the Board of Governors, all of whom were elected today into office:

Rudy Garcia – Vice-Chancellor (and Immediate Past Chancellor of The Justinian Society)
Kathleen Wilkinson – Secretary
Sophia Lee – Assistant Secretary
Jeffrey Lindy – Treasurer

According to the Philadelphia Bar Association’s Web site, the following five candidates were elected to three-year terms on the Board of Governors:

Here’s to another great year with the Philadelphia Bar Association.
