Bodman's Detroit office is located in state of the art space in the historic Hudson's warehouse at Ford Field. Visitors to our office actually have a view of the playing surface from our main reception area and conference center. Detroit remains the world capital of the automotive industry and, as home to the nation's busiest border crossing, a hub of international commerce. The city is also enjoying a renaissance as a venue for major sports and entertainment activities, fuelled in large part by the continuing development of the stadiums district and its success at hosting major events such as the Super Bowl, Baseball All Star Game and NCAA Basketball Final Four. We have been honored to play a role in that renaissance by becoming a major office tenant in Ford Field. Our Detroit office is our largest, with each of our practice areas and major industry service teams represented there. We have proudly served several clients continuously from the Detroit office since the 1920s and 1930s.
