Geragos, principal of Geragos & Geragos, APC, in Los
Angeles.
"I am so excited to announce attorney Mark Geragos as the MBA's
keynote speaker for our annual dinner. Attorney Geragos has had an
extraordinary career in his representation of so-called celebrity
clients, including but not limited to Winona Ryder, Michael Jackson
and many more," said MBA President Marsha V. Kazarosian. "Notably,
as a proud Armenian, he advocates vigorously for the recognition of
the Armenian Genocide and for reparations. As an accomplished
author and president of the Armenian Bone Marrow Donor Registry,
Attorney Geragos has pledged a percentage of his earnings from his
2013 book, Mistrial, to the ABDMR. Please join us on May 7
to listen and learn from Attorney Geragos … an extraordinary
lawyer, accomplished author, speaker and advocate for human
rights."
The Annual Dinner will also include the presentation of the
Massachusetts Bar Association's President's Award to House Speaker
Robert A. DeLeo, the Chief Justice Edward F. Hennessey Award to
Massachusetts Superior Court Associate Justice Dennis J. Curran and
