Make Your Meetings Work!

 Parliamentary services from one of the authors of the current (12th) edition of
Robert’s Rules of Order Newly Revised.

Thomas J. Balch, J.D.* PRP

Professional Registered Parliamentarian

Areas of Parliamentary Practice & Consultation

Balch often serves organizations faced with contentious divisions or complex parliamentary issues, but also enables groups better to prevent those situations by assisting in ensuring that meeting procedure is consistently conducted efficiently and fairly.

Services include assistance in conducting meetings (including serving as parliamentarian, professional presiding officer, or advisor to particular group of members), drafting and amending bylaws, providing professional parliamentary opinions, training presiding officers and board members, or teaching proper use of meeting rules on both basic and advanced levels. Mr. Balch is also available as a consultant or expert witness for court proceedings.

*Although an attorney licensed to practice in Illinois, Balch holds himself out as providing professional parliamentary services, not as providing legal advice.
