We’re excited to welcome Michael Pollock to the 826CHI Board of Directors!
Michael is a litigation attorney at Saul Ewing LLP, where he represents companies in complex commercial litigation. His work spans a wide range of business disputes, including shareholder disagreements, contractual issues, employment matters, and allegations of fraud. He also handles intellectual property litigation and appellate work.
Michael has extensive experience managing motions practice—including summary judgment, dismissal, and attorney fee petitions—and regularly handles emergency relief like temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, particularly in cases involving trade secrets and noncompete issues.
Outside of his legal career, Michael is a husband and father of a three year old boy and two dogs.
“I believe the mission of 826CHI is important to give the youth of the communities it serves a way to express themselves in a way that is unique to each individual and free from the cultural and societal pressures these children may face,” Michael said. “Writing is a universal skill that will benefit these students and will help them achieve success in any career path they choose.”
We’re grateful to have Michael’s voice and perspective on the Board—and we look forward to what we’ll build together. Welcome, Michael!
