Susan M. Holden, a partner at the law firm of SiebenCarey, has been elected 2018 Minnesota Chapter President of the American Board of Trial Advocates.
Established in 1957, ABOTA is an “invitation only” organization, consisting of both defense and plaintiffs lawyers, with 6,500 members nationally and 180 lawyers in the Minnesota chapter. ABOTA membership criteria requires extensive civil jury trial experience and an honorable ethical reputation among peers and the judiciary. The organization is dedicated to elevating civility and professionalism in law practice, improving the civil justice system, and preserving the right to civil jury trial guaranteed by the Seventh Amendment.
“It is truly an honor and a privilege to have the opportunity to help lead the Minnesota Chapter and represent many of the most experienced trial attorneys in Minnesota,” said Holden. “ABOTA’s members are among the most accomplished, dedicated and successful lawyers. I am very grateful that I can do my small part to promote and advance ABOTA’s mission.”

Holden has had a long and distinguished career at SiebenCarey, where she is a partner and shareholder, representing clients in a variety of complex personal injury and wrongful death claims.
