Holden elected as state bar association president

The Minnesota State Bar Association elected Susan M. Holden, formerly of the Brainerd area and an attorney with Sieben, Grose, Von Holtum & Carey Ltd., as its next president.

Her term will run from July 1 to June 30, 2006. Holden is a personal injury trial attorney. Holden served as president of the Hennepin County Bar Association from 1999-2000 and currently serves on the Board of Governors of the Minneapolis Trial Lawyers and the Advisory Board for the Minneapolis Women Lawyers. In 1995, the Minnesota Supreme Court appointed her to the Commission on Judicial Selection where she served a four-year term.

One of her new duties as president will be to appoint committee members to serve as the Legislative Committee of the Assembly.

Holden earned her certification as a civil trial specialist by the MSBA. This distinction is achieved by less than 1 percent of women lawyers in Minnesota. Martindale-Hubbell, the most respected legal directory in the legal community, gave Holden its high test AV Rating on professional skills and ethics. This designation is based on extensive, confidential review conducted among attorneys and judges in Minnesota. She has also been selected as a Leading American Attorney and Super Lawyer, (a designation selected among the top 40 personal injury Super Lawyers in Minnesota and the top 50 women Super Lawyers in Minnesota).

Holden graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor's degree in political science from St. Cloud State University in 1984, and completed her law degree cum laude at William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul four years later. She is admitted to the Minnesota, State and Federal Bars. Holden is a frequent author and lecturer on such topics as trial practice law, substantive law and ethical leadership in the profession. She concentrates her practice in product liability, dram ship liability, wrongful death and auto accident/ insurance litigation.

Holden, a partner in the law firm, directs operations at the office in Minneapolis.
