SOLICITATION AND VOTING

     We are sending you this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy card because the Board of Directors of Birmingham Bloomfield Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company” “we” or “us”) is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2008 annual meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). This Proxy Statement summarizes the information you need to know to vote at the Annual Meeting.

     You are invited to attend our Annual Meeting on May 19, 2008 beginning at 9:30 a.m., local time. The Annual Meeting will be held at the Birmingham Community House, 380 South Bates Street,, Birmingham, Michigan.

     This Proxy Statement and the enclosed form of proxy are being mailed starting on or about April 7, 2008.

Shareholders Entitled to Vote

     Holders of record of common stock of the Company at the close of business on March 21, 2008 are entitled to receive this notice. Each share of common stock of the Company is equal to one vote.

     There is no cumulative voting at the Annual Meeting.

     As of the record date, there were 1,800,000 common shares issued and outstanding.

Voting Procedures

     You can vote on matters to come before the meeting in one of two ways:

	•		you can come to the Annual Meeting and cast your vote there; or
	•		you can vote by signing and returning the enclosed proxy card. If you do so, the individuals named as proxies on the card will vote your shares in the manner you indicate.

     You may also choose to vote for all of the nominees for Director and each proposal by simply signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card without further direction. All signed and returned proxies that contain no direction as to vote will be voted FOR each of the nominees for Director and FOR each of the proposals.

     The Board of Directors has selected William Aikens and Harry Cendrowski as the persons to act as proxies on the proxy card.

     If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person, you should request a ballot when you arrive. HOWEVER, IF YOUR SHARES ARE HELD IN THE NAME OF YOUR BROKER, BANK OR OTHER NOMINEE, THE INSPECTOR OF ELECTION WILL REQUIRE YOU TO PRESENT A POWER OF ATTORNEY OR PROXY IN YOUR NAME FROM SUCH BROKER, BANK OR OTHER NOMINEE FOR YOU TO VOTE SUCH SHARES AT THE ANNUAL MEETING. Please contact your broker, bank or nominee.

Required Vote

     The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum. Abstentions and broker “non votes” are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A broker “non vote” occurs when a broker, bank or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because such broker, bank or nominee does not have discretionary authority to vote and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

     Once a quorum is achieved, a plurality of votes cast is all that is necessary for the election of Directors. Abstentions and broker “non votes” are not counted in determining the vote. As to all other matters that may come before the meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast is necessary for the approval of such matters. Abstentions and broker “non votes” are again not counted for purposes of approving the matter.

Revoking a Proxy

     If you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised. You may revoke your proxy in any one of three ways:

	•		you may send in another proxy with a later date;
	•		you may notify the Company’s Secretary in writing at Birmingham Bloomfield Bancshares, Inc., 33583 Woodward Avenue, Birmingham, Michigan 48009; or
	•		you may revoke by voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

     If you choose to revoke your proxy by attending the Annual Meeting, you must vote in accordance with the rules for voting at the Annual Meeting. Attending the Annual Meeting alone will not constitute revocation of a proxy.

List of Shareholders

     A list of shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for examination by shareholders for any purpose related to the Annual Meeting at the Company’s offices at 33583 Woodward Avenue, Birmingham, Michigan for a period of ten days prior to the Annual Meeting. A list will also be available at the Annual Meeting itself.

Cost of Proxy Solicitation

     We will pay the expenses of soliciting proxies. Proxies may be solicited on our behalf by Directors, officers or employees in person or by telephone, mail or telegram. We do not intend to engage a proxy solicitation firm to assist us in the distribution and solicitation of proxies. The Company will also request persons, firms and corporations holding shares in their names for other beneficial owners to send proxy materials to such beneficial owners. The Company will reimburse these persons for their expenses.

Inspector of Election

     Your proxy returned in the enclosed envelope will be delivered to the Company’s transfer agent, Registrar and Transfer Company. The Board of Directors has designated Donald Ruff and Lance Krajacic, Jr. to act as inspectors of election and to tabulate the votes at the Annual Meeting.

Other Matters

     The Board of Directors knows of no business which will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting other than as stated in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. If, however, other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxies to vote the shares on such matters in their discretion.

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

Role and Composition of the Board of Directors

     Our Company’s Board of Directors is the ultimate decision making body of the Company, except for matters which law or our Articles of Incorporation requires the vote of shareholders. The Board of Directors selects the management of the Company which is responsible for the Company’s day to day operations. The Board acts as an advisor to management and also monitors its performance. Our Board of Directors has determined that each of William R. Aikens, Harry Cendrowski, Donald E. Copus, John M. Erb, Charles Kaye, Jr., Scott B. McCallum, Daniel P. O’Donnell, Charles T. Pryde, Donald Ruff, Walter G. Schwartz, and Henry Spellman are independent as independence is defined in the NASDAQ’s listing standards, as those standards have been modified or supplemented.

     Members of the Board of Directors serve also as Directors of Bank of Birmingham (the “Bank”). The Bank is the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary. You will find a discussion of its activities in your Annual Report.

     During 2007, the Board of Directors met as the Company’s Board of Directors thirteen times. In addition, the Board of Directors has authorized four Committees to manage distinct matters of the Company. These Committees are the Executive Committee, Audit Committee, the Nomination and Governance Committee, and the Compensation Committee. Membership on each of the Committees is set forth in the table below. All of our Directors attended 75 percent or more of the meetings of the Board and the Board Committees on which they served in 2007 with the exception of Harry Cendrowski, Charlie Pryde and Daniel O’Donnell.

The Executive Committee

     The Executive Committee generally acts in lieu of the full board of directors between board meetings. This committee is responsible for formulating and implementing policy decisions, subject to review by the entire board of directors.

The Audit Committee

     The Audit Committee is responsible for the annual appointment of the public accounting firm to be our outside auditors. The Committee is also responsible for the following tasks:

	•		maintaining a liaison with the outside auditors;
	•		reviewing the adequacy of internal controls;
	•		reviewing with management and outside auditors financial disclosures of the Company; and
	•		reviewing any material changes in accounting principles or practices used in preparing statements.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

     Our Board of Directors has determined that we have an Audit Committee financial expert, as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, serving on our Audit Committee. Donald Ruff is our Audit Committee financial expert, and he is independent as independence for audit committee members is defined in the NASDAQ’s listing standards, as those standards have been modified or supplemented.

The Nomination and Governance Committee

     The Nomination and Governance Committee identifies individuals to become board members and selects, or recommends for the board’s selection, director nominees to be presented for shareholder approval at the annual meeting of shareholders or to fill any vacancies.

     Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Nomination and Governance Committee, a copy of which is available to shareholders on our website, at http://www.bankofbirmingham.net. Each of the members of our Nomination and Governance Committee is independent as independence is defined in the NASDAQ’s listing standards, as those standards have been modified or supplemented.

     The Nomination and Governance Committee’s policy is to consider director candidates recommended by shareholders. Such recommendations must be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to:

Birmingham Bloomfield Bancshares, Inc.
33583 Woodward Avenue
Birmingham, Michigan 48009

     Article II, Section 6 of the Company’s Bylaws governs nominations for election to the Board of Directors and requires all nominations for election to the Board of Directors, other than those made by or at the direction of the Board, to be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to the Company, as set forth in the Bylaws. To be timely, a shareholders’ notice must be delivered, or mailed, and received at the principal executive offices of the Company not less than 60 days nor more than 270 days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event less than 30 days’ notice or prior disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to shareholders, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such disclosure was made. No notice has been received by the Company in connection with the Annual Meeting. Each written notice of a shareholder nomination must set forth certain information specified in the Bylaws. The presiding officer of the meeting may refuse to acknowledge the nomination of any person not made in compliance with the procedures set forth in the Bylaws.

     The Nomination and Governance Committee has not established specific, minimum qualifications for recommended nominees or specific qualities or skills for one or more of our directors to possess. The Nomination and Governance Committee uses a subjective process for identifying and evaluating nominees for director, based on the information available to, and the subjective judgments of, the members of the Nomination and Governance Committee and our then current needs, although the committee does not believe there would be any difference in the manner in which it evaluates nominees based on whether the nominee is recommended by a shareholder. It is anticipated that nominees will be either existing directors or business associates of our directors or officers.

The Compensation Committee

     The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing annual and long-term performance goals for the Chief Executive Officer and senior management. This Committee is also responsible for reviewing and making determinations concerning senior officers’ compensation and other incentive compensation programs. The committee makes recommendations to the board, but does not have the authority to establish compensation. The committee may utilize banking industry compensation surveys from time-to-time, but does not utilize compensation consultants in recommending compensation. For officers other than the President and Chief Executive Officer, the committee utilizes advice from the President and Chief Executive Officer in making its recommendation to the board. The committee is also responsible for reviewing and recommending that the Company’s Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.

     Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Compensation Committee, a copy of which is available to shareholders on our website at http://www.bankofbirmingham.net. Each of the voting members of our Compensation Committee is independent as independence is defined in NASDAQ’s listing standards, as those standards have been modified or supplemented.

Code of Ethics

     The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. Our Code of Ethics contains written standards that we believe are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

	•		Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
	•		Full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commissions and in other public communications we make;
	•		Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
	•		The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons named in the code; and
	•		Accountability for adherence to the code.

     This Code of Ethics is attached to our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 as Exhibit 14. We have also posted it on our Web site at http://www.bankofbirmingham.net. We will provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of our Code of Ethics. Requests for a copy of our Code of Ethics should be made to our Secretary at 33583 Woodward Avenue, Birmingham, Michigan 48009. We intend to satisfy the disclosure requirement under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K regarding an amendment to, or a waiver from, a provision of our Code of Ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions and that relates to any element of the code definition enumerated in Securities and Exchange Commission, Regulation S-K, Item 406(b) by posting such information on our Web site at http://www.bankofbirmingham.net within five business days following the date of the amendment or waiver.

     Our Board of Directors has a process for shareholders to send communications to the Board of Directors, its Nomination and Governance Committee or its Audit Committee, including complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters. Communications can be sent to the Board of Directors, its Nomination and Governance Committee or its Audit Committee or specific directors either by regular mail to the attention of the Board of Directors, its Nomination and Governance Committee, its Audit Committee or specific directors, at our principal executive offices at 33583 Woodward Avenue, Birmingham, Michigan 48009. All of these communications will be reviewed by our Secretary (1) to filter out communications that our Secretary deems are not appropriate for our directors, such as spam and communications offering to buy or sell products or services, and (2) to sort and relay the remainder to the appropriate directors. We encourage all of our directors to attend the annual meeting of shareholders, if possible. We anticipate that all of our directors will attend our 2007 annual meeting of shareholders.

Directors’ Compensation

     We do not currently pay any cash compensation for service as a Company or Bank director. We may elect to compensate our directors through the payment of fees in the future, but have no plans to do so at this time.

ITEM 1. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     Currently, the Board of Directors has 13 members which are divided into three classes of three to six directors per class. Each class of directors are appointed to three-year terms. One class of directors will be up for election each year. This results in a staggered Board which ensures continuity from year to year.

     Four Class III directors will be elected at the Annual Meeting to serve a three-year term expiring at our Annual Meeting in 2011.

     The persons named in the enclosed proxy card intend to vote the proxy for the election of each of the four nominees unless you indicate on the proxy card that your vote should be withheld from any or all of such nominees. Each nominee elected as director will continue in office until his or her successor has been elected, or until his death, resignation or retirement.

     The Board of Directors has proposed the following nominees for election as Class III Directors whose terms will expire in 2011: John M. Erb, Charles T. Pryde, Donald Ruff and Walter G. Schwartz.

     The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the election of these nominees as Directors.

     We expect each nominee to be able to serve if elected. If any nominee is not able to serve, proxies will be voted in favor of the remainder of those nominated and may be voted for substitute nominees. The principal occupation and certain other information about the nominees is set forth below.

Bank of Birmingham has entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Farr, Krajacic and Miller, each of which has a term of three years (with certain exceptions). Following the initial three year terms, the agreements automatically renew for one year, unless either party elects to terminate by sending written notice at least 30 days prior to the expiration of the then current term.

     Under the terms of the agreements, Mr. Farr receives a base salary of $135,000 per year, Mr. Krajacic $125,000 and Mr. Miller $125,000.

Each of the executives is eligible to participate in any executive incentive bonus plan and all other benefit programs that the Bank has adopted. Each of the executives is also entitled to receive other customary benefits such as health, dental and life insurance, membership fees to banking and professional organizations and an automobile allowance.

     The employment agreements also provide for grants of stock options, the details of which are included in the 2007 Equity Grants table set forth above.

     The employment agreements contain customary non-competition and non-solicitation provisions that generally apply for a period of one year following the termination of the executive’s employment with the Bank.

     Finally, each of the employment agreements contains provisions which require various differing payments to the executives upon termination and/or a change in control. The payments are described in detail below under the caption, “Payments upon Termination/Change of Control.”

401(k) Plan

     The Bank has a 401(k) Plan in which substantially all employees may participate. The Bank may contribute to the 401(k) Plan at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Payments upon Termination/Change of Control

     Under each named executive officer’s employment agreement, the executive officer is entitled to different payments and benefits depending upon the manner in which his employment terminates. If the executive is terminated for “Good Cause” (see below), or he resigns, dies or becomes disabled, then the agreement and the Bank’s obligations under it are automatically terminated; provided, however, in the case of death, the Bank is required to provide health insurance benefits to the executive’s spouse at its cost for the period permitted by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986 (“COBRA”). The Company estimates the approximate value of this benefit to be provided to an executive’s spouse under this provision would be zero.

     If the Bank terminates the executive’s employment for any reason other than Good Cause (and the termination is not the result of a “Change of Control” (see below), then the executive is entitled to severance as follows:

	1.		If the termination occurs after the first anniversary date, the executive is entitled to 6 months’ base salary.
	2.		If the termination occurs after the second anniversary date, the executive is entitled to 12 months’ base salary.

     The Company estimates that if such termination had occurred on December 31, 2007, total compensation payable to Mr. Farr would be $135,000; Mr. Krajacic $125,000; and Mr. Miller $125,000. The amounts are payable in accordance with the Bank’s normal payroll procedures.

     “Good Cause” is defined under each executive’s agreement to include: (i) a breach of the agreement or gross negligence in performance thereunder; (ii) a failure to follow policy or engaging in unsafe or unsound banking practices; (iii) conviction of a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or a felony; (iv) gross misconduct in the course of employment including, indecency, immorality, gross insubordination, dishonesty, harassment, use of illegal drugs, or fighting; (v) substantial unsatisfactory job performance; and (vi) prohibition from engaging in the business of banking by any regulator.

     Under each executive’s employment agreement, he has the right to terminate within 60 days following a Change of Control and receive as a lump sum, payment equal to 199% of his Base Amount, as defined in section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. Such amount is also payable if the executive is terminated other than for Good Cause within 60 days following a Change of Control. The Company has also agreed to reimburse each executive for certain excise taxes that such executive may be subject to under section 280G (i.e. tax gross-up payments). In the case of Mr. Farr, the Company has also agreed to continue his automobile allowance for a period of 12 months.

     “Change of Control” is generally defined under each agreement as (1) a merger or consolidation of the Company or the Bank and the shareholders of the Company or the Bank, respectively immediately before such merger or consolidation do not, as a result of such merger or consolidation, own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the entity resulting from such merger or consolidation; (2) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the Bank; (3) any person acquires beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company or the Bank; or (4) the individuals who were members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Current Board Members”) cease to constitute a majority of the Board of the Company or its successor; however, if the election or the nomination for election of any new director of the Company or its successor is approved by a vote of a two-thirds majority of the individuals who are Current Board Members, such new director shall be considered a Current Board Member.

     In accordance with recently adopted SEC rules and for illustrative purposes only, if on December 31, 2007 (i) the executive elected to terminate; or (ii) the Bank terminated the executive for any reason other than Good Cause as a result of Change of Control, the estimated sum of the compensation payable as a lump sum and the economic benefit of the acceleration of stock options to Mr. Farr would be $268,650; Mr. Krajacic $248,750; and Mr. Miller $248,750.

Transactions with Certain Related Persons

     The Bank makes loans to directors and executive officers from time-to-time in the ordinary course of business. The Bank’s current policy provides that:

	•		In the case of banking transactions, each transaction will be on substantially the same terms, including price or interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated parties, and any banking transactions will not be expected to involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features to us;
	•		In the case of business transactions, each transaction will be on terms no less favorable than could be obtained from an unrelated third party; and
	•		In the case of all related party transactions, each transaction will be approved by a majority of the directors, including a majority of the directors who do not have an interest in the transaction.

     The following is a summary of the business transactions in 2007 involving the Company and related persons:

•

We entered into an agreement with Schwartz Financial Group, an entity partially owned by director Walter Schwartz, to provide brokerage and certain other administrative services in connection with the 401(k) Plan that we offer our employees. Schwartz Financial Group receives a commission of 25 basis points on any brokerage transaction that it executes in connection with the Plan. These fees would be paid directly by the respective mutual fund companies involved in the trade and included in the mutual fund’s annual administrative expenses.

     Our board of directors believes that the above-described transaction is on terms no less favorable than could have been obtained from an unrelated third party.
