(March 26, 2007. Manchester, NH.) - Sheehan Phinney Attorney Michael C. Harvell has become a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, one of the premier legal associations in America.
The induction ceremony at which Mr. Harvell became a Fellow took place recently before an audience of 810 people during the recent 2007 Spring Meeting of the College in La Quinta, California.
Mr. Harvell has built a substantial business litigation practice since joining Sheehan Phinney in 1975.

Sheehan Phinney Attorney Michael Harvell Founded in 1950, the College is composed of the best of the trial bar from the United States and Canada. Fellowship in the college is extended by invitation only and only after careful investigation, to those experienced trial lawyers who have mastered the art of advocacy and whose professional careers have been marked by the highest standards of ethical conduct, professionalism, civility and collegiality. Lawyers must have a minimum of fifteen years trial experience before they can be considered for Fellowship.
The College strives to improve and elevate the standards of trial practice, the administration of justice and the ethics of the trial profession. Qualified lawyers are called to Fellowship in the College from all branches of trial practice. They are carefully selected from among those who customarily represent plaintiffs in civil cases and those who customarily represent defendants, those who prosecute accused of crime and those who defend them. The College is thus able to speak with a balanced voice on important issues affecting the legal profession and the administrative of justice.
