The Michigan Association of Municipal Attorneys (MAMA) is a specialized organization that provides a variety of services for municipal attorneys practicing in Michigan. Through its partnership with the Michigan Municipal League, Michigan’s communities are strengthened. Better communities. Better Michigan.
Since its inception, MAMA has provided educational programs and information sharing designed for attorneys in public and private practice who counsel Michigan’s local communities. In 2010, the Academy of Municipal Attorneys was established for those who want to attain and be recognized for the highest level of accomplishment in municipal law.
Member services include the MAMA Listserv, which is a great networking and research tool, the Municipal Legal Briefs, and regularly scheduled educational opportunities.
