Michelle Sellers Elected as a Fellow of the Tennessee Bar Foundation

Michelle Sellers has recently been elected a Fellow of the Tennessee Bar Foundation, an association of 730 attorneys across the state. Invitations to membership, which is a position of honor, were extended to 35 attorneys this year by the Board of Trustees. The introduction of new Fellows took place at the annual Fellows’ Dinner in Nashville.

The Bar Foundation’s purpose is two-fold: to honor attorneys who have distinguished themselves in the profession and to administer a grant making program. That project, known by its acronym “IOLTA” (Interest On Lawyers’ Trust Accounts), has awarded grants in excess of $17,000,000 to law-related, public interest projects throughout Tennessee.

Ms. Sellers is a Member with Rainey, Kizer, Reviere & Bell, P.L.C., and has been associated with the Firm since receiving her Doctor of Jurisprudence from the University of Tennessee College of Law. She represents physicians, nurses, hospitals, and clinics in medical malpractice litigation. In addition, she practices in the areas of professional malpractice and automobile accident litigation. Ms. Sellers is a member of the Firm’s Malpractice Practice Group.

She is an active member of the Jackson-Madison County Bar Association (JMCBA), the Tennessee Bar Association (TBA), and the American Bar Association. She has served as President of the TBA Young Lawyers Division serving over 2100 members. From 2004-2006, she served as President of the JMCBA. She is a 2005 graduate of the Tennessee Bar Association’s Leadership Law Program, which recognizes the state’s emerging legal leaders. In 2008, she received the President’s Special Recognition Award for her exceptional service as President-Elect of the TBA YLD. She is also a member of the Defense Research Institute.
