Mark A. Tarasiewicz, who is set to succeed retiring Philadelphia Bar Association Executive Director Kenneth Shear early next year, said he is optimistic about the future of the association as he prepares to take on the challenges of his new role, which will include involving more young lawyers in the bar association and maintaining the association’s prosperity in a difficult economic climate.
On January 1, 2014, Tarasiewicz is set to take the day-to-day reins of the bar association after Shear ends his 37-year run as executive director December 31.
