Nelson Mullins partner John Kuppens was recently named President of Lawyers for Civil Justice (LCJ) at the organization’s meeting last week in Washington, D.C.

LCJ members, preeminent corporations, law firms, and defense bar organizations, collaborate to provide compelling reasons for judges, Congress, and rule makers to give serious consideration to meaningful reforms.   By uniting the business, legal, and defense bar communities in propelling reasonable reform initiatives, LCJ provides our members with an amplified voice in civil justice reform.

Kuppens serves as Co-Chair of the firm’s Consumer & Mechanical Product Liability Industry Group and has over 30 years’ experience representing clients in product liability and commercial litigation in state and federal courts across the country, including as national and regional counsel. He also counsels clients on CPSC, FTC, and FDA regulatory matters and on risk prevention issues.
