National Trustee Nominations

The SCLA Board of Trustees consist of 11 voting members. In addition to the seven national trustees (President, Executive Vice President – Membership, Vice President – Administration, Vice President – Conferences, Treasurer, Immediate Past President, and the AEI appointed trustee), there are four Regional Vice Presidents – one for each of the four regions: Northeastern, Southeastern, Central, and Western.

The present term of office for the five elected national trustees (President, Executive Vice President – Membership, Vice President – Administration, Vice President – Conferences, and Treasurer) ends January 1, 2009. Therefore, an election will be held on October 10, 2008.

Members interested in serving as a national trustee should forward a notice of interest to Lydia H. Hall, SCLA, President, Society of Claim Law Associates, P.O. Box 82, Basking Ridge, NJ 07920 or e-mail the notice of interest to: jchiara@aeiclaimslaw.com. The notice of interest may be prepared by you, expressing your interest to serve, or you may nominate a colleague whom you believe is interested and capable of leading the Society. The notice of interest has no formal requirements; it should simply express who is interested in serving, provide a brief career history, including the nominee’s present employment-company and position, professional designations held–e.g., the SCLA, and all appropriate contact information, including name, address, phone, fax, and e-mail. The notice of interest must be received on or before June 30, 2008.

The Nominations Committee will review all interested candidates and make their recommendations this summer. For additional information at this time, contact an SCLA representative at
