Bose McKinney & Evans LLP is pleased to announce that

has been selected by her peers as one of the "Best Lawyers in America" for 2007
in the area of Trust and Estate Law.
"The Best Lawyers in America" is the 13th edition undertaken by Woodward/White

of specialization. Only those lawyers who earned the consensus support of their
peers were included, and the listings cannot be bought. For this reason,
inclusion in "Best Lawyers" is considered a singular honor.

Association, American Bar Association and Estate Planning Council of
Indianapolis. She also received a certification as an Indiana Estate Planning
and Administration Specialist by the Estate Planning and Administration
Specialty Certification Board.

chair of the Indiana University Alumni Association on July 1, 2007.
