We have reached our milestone by handing in over 4,000 signatures into the Oakland County Elections Office yesterday!

There is no way we could have made it this far without the support, engagement, and encouragement from the thousands of voters who want to see an Impartial Judge sitting on the bench treating everyone with the respect and dignity they deserve.

We want to thank everyone who took time out of their busy schedules to collect signatures!

While we take this time to celebrate this moment, we are ramping up our campaign. We want to ask you to help us expand our team- are you willing to canvass, talk to your neighbors, host a "meet and greet" or put up a lawn sign? If yes...sign up!

Grateful for the opportunity to speak with and listen to civically engaged community members these past couple of weeks (especially since it's been so cold).

I'm continuing to meet people across Oakland County who care deeply about fairness, access to the courts, and public service, and I'm thankful for every conversation.

If you're interested in helping with petition circulation or volunteering in any capacity, I'd love to connect. This is truly a grassroots effort.

Looking for a few neighbors willing to help—no experience needed

The Committee to Elect Ariel Drissman for Oakland County Probate Judge is looking for volunteers to help with nominating petition signature collection over the coming weeks.

This is a nonpartisan judicial race, and the help we’re seeking is simple but essential: being present at community locations, explaining the process, and collecting signatures from registered voters.

✔ Flexible schedule
✔ Training and guidance provided
✔ Great fit for retirees, community-minded residents, or anyone who believes our courts matter

If you’ve ever thought, “I’d like to help locally but don’t know how,” this is a great place to start.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the MLK Day events in Southfield and West Bloomfield over the past two days.

It meant a lot to see so many neighbors show up – especially in the cold – to honor Dr. King and engage in our community.

Grateful for the conversations and the chance to listen.

About Nominating Petitions

Michigan requires judicial candidates to collect nominating signatures in order to appear on the ballot.

At this stage, I'm simply collecting the required signatures so voters have a choice in the upcoming nonpartisan election.

Signing a nominating petition does not indicate support or agreement – it only allows a candidate's name to appear on the ballot.

If you would like information about where I'll be gathering signatures or how to participate, feel free to follow this page or reach out directly.

What Does Probate Court Do?

Probate Court is not ciminial court and not political court. It handles matters that deeply affect families, including:

• Guardianships and Conservatorships
• Decedent's Estates
• Trust Administration
• Mental Health Proceedings

Judges in Probate Court are required to apply the law impartially, protect due process, and balance the rights of individuals with the need for protection when required by law.

Understanding what Probate Court does – and how it affects real people – is an important part of civic engagement. This page will continue to share educational information about the court and the judicial role.

Why I'm Running for Oakland County Probate Court?

My name is Ariel Drissman. I'm an Oakland County attorney who works with families and individuals during some of the most difficult moments of their lives – incapacity, guardianship, conservatorship, and loss.

I'm seeking ballot access in the upcoming nonpartisan Probate Court Election becuase I believe voters deserve a meaningful choice and a judiciary that applies the law impartially, thoughtfully, and with respect for individual rights.

Probate Court decisions affect autonomy, property, and dignity. Those decisions should be grounded in the law, due process, and the facts of each case – not popularity, politics, or connections.

This page exists to share information about the role of Probate Court, my background, and how members of the community can participate in the civic process.
