DETROIT, Mich. (PRWEB) November 20, 2013 -- Dickinson Wright PLLC is pleased to announce that Attorney Thomas Isaacs has been appointed as an Oakland County Public Administrator by Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette.

The County Public Administrator acts as a fiduciary to ensure unclaimed estate assets properly go to the State Treasurer on behalf of the people of the State of Michigan.
