Woodland Hills attorney Robert Morgenstern has been named president of the Association of Southern California Defense Counsels (ASCDC) for 2009. "I've been a member my whole 28-year legal career and I've been on the board about 10 years," Morgenstern said. "During my tenure I'm hoping to stress that we are a Southern California organization, not just a Los Angeles County organization." ASCDC advocates for defense attorneys' interests in Sacramento; provides educational programs for its members; and has an expert-witness bank, where members can find authoritative witnesses on a wide-range of topics. Morgenstern is a partner in the law firm Maranga Morgenstern.
