About Franci
Franci Silver earned her law degree from Michigan State University in 1988 after completing undergraduate studies in political science at Oakland University in 1984. She moved from campus to courthouse in a fairly direct line. Her academic record placed her among the wave of lawyers who entered practice at the end of the 1980s and the start of a new legal decade.
Her early career included work at The Law Offices of Lee Steinberg, P.C., where she is listed as practicing law in 1991. That role came after a few years spent establishing herself in the Michigan legal community. Colleagues from that period recall a steady presence in the office and in court calendars, handling the everyday demands of trial preparation and client counseling.
Memberships have been part of her professional life. She holds current membership in the State Bar of Michigan and in the Michigan Association for Justice. Those affiliations have kept her connected to continuing education programs and to peer networks across the state. She has attended bar-sponsored events and association gatherings that aim to maintain professional standards and keep members informed of legal developments.
People who have worked with Silver describe a lawyer who blends courtroom experience with practical case management. She has navigated the procedural and substantive aspects of practice in Michigan courts. Over the years she has managed filings, discovery, and courtroom appearances. That work required attention to deadlines and to client needs, tasks she has taken on in a variety of matters handled by the firm.
As of 2026, Silver practices at The Law Offices of Lee Steinberg, P.C., continuing her work in Michigan. Her current practice involves representing clients and handling matters brought in state courts in Michigan.
