We asked Marilee: What is the most rewarding thing about your legal practice?

"My tax exempt practice has allowed me to integrate my core passions—public policy, strategy, communications and community development—into a fulfilling career. I am privileged to work with clients that are addressing poverty in our neighborhoods, funding quality schools, creating a safety net for health care and training the future technology workforce. As general counsel to many of my clients, I have the opportunity to understand their company and policy objectives, while participating in the development and execution of their short and long term strategies. In short, my legal career at Ice Miller has allowed me to build a personally fulfilling career that integrates my faith and missions with meaningful community impact."
