Lee S. Rosen

Lee may be a distant cousin of William Shatner, alias Captain Kirk,but his pilot's license only applies to airplanes that travel in theearth's galaxy. Despite the fact that he has the "flattest feet on theplanet" (according to his podiatrist), Lee enjoys slightly dangerousactivities such as whitewater canoeing, scuba diving, and running atriathlon. These are especially dangerous for him since he has nobalance and cannot roller skate, ice skate, or ski to save his life.

Ofcourse, could anything be more frightening than speaking toprofessional and local civic groups about "How to Stay HappilyMarried"? Perhaps writing articles about divorce or lecturing forcontinuing legal education programs would qualify, especially since thelectures have been for such prestigious organizations as the AmericanBar Association, the National Business Institute, the National Councilof Juvenile and Family Court Judges, Wake Forest University School ofLaw, Campbell University School of Law, and the North Carolina BarFoundation. He also once worked as a hotel desk clerk and as SantaClaus. Surely, those jobs qualify as scariest of all.

Lee beganhis legal career in 1987 and is the founder of the Rosen Law Firm. As Rosen's Chief Executive Officer, Lee oversees strategic planning, staffdevelopment and fiscal management. Never idle, he has served as aCouncil member of the North Carolina Bar Association Family Law Sectionand Law Practice Management Section, as chairperson of severalcommittees of the American Bar Association, and as editor of FamilyForum, a publication of the North Carolina Bar Association. As if thatweren't enough, he serves as a member of the editorial board of theFamily Advocate, the largest circulation family law publication in thecountry, and he is a legal advisor to the National Council of Juvenileand Family Court Judges, which included working on the Model Code onDomestic Violence.

Lee is a homegrown graduate of the Universityof North Carolina at Asheville and received his J.D. degree from WakeForest University Law School. When he isn't busy attending to hisclients, writing articles, lecturing, flying, scuba diving, orcanoeing, he eats lots of stewed collard greens, which he proclaims tobe "the greatest food ever invented," and chaperones his kids onthree-day overnight field trips with their school friends. Now, THAT'sscary!
