Each year, Midwest Real Estate News inducts new members in its Midwest Commercial Real Estate Hall of Fame. We also run profiles of these new inductees on our site. Today, we look at the busy career of LaTonya Ellis, practice group director with the Chicago office of Ice Miller.

LaTonya Ellis serves as a practice group director in Ice Miller’s Real Estate and Municipal Finance Practice Groups. She is responsible for overseeing aspects of the strategic growth, diversity and inclusion priorities and day-to-day business operations for the groups.

“Incorporating this distinct tier of leadership in a law firm’s structure is extremely forward-thinking. Practice groups have become the driving element for strategy development and implementation. The practice of law is a different animal,” Ellis said recently.

“It is essential to get the best leaders installed in the right roles to move the needle on profitability, diversity and inclusion, competitive brand building and most importantly, recruiting and maintaining the best talent. As a leader, it’s necessary to understand the practice at every vantage point, only then will you be able to drive change.”
