Inside Back Cover 2020 FDCC Roster | 1 FEDERATION OF DEFENSE & CORPORATE COUNSEL Overview Since 1938 the Federation of Defense & Corporate Counsel (FDCC) has served as the preeminent professional trade association of the premier defense and senior corporate counsel and insurance industry representatives from across the United States and around the world. Established and dedicated to promoting knowledge, fellowship and professionalism among attorneys and other professionals striving to achieve a balanced justice system in the defense of civil lawsuits. This Roster comprises leaders from the boardrooms and the courtrooms; who have been nominated by their peers for having achieved a reputation of excellence and continuing to provide their respective colleagues and clients with the highest degree of legal advocacy and professionalism. Following a rigorous vetting process these individuals exemplify the highest standards within the defense legal community. The FDCC provides its members with exclusive benefits to facilitate increasing their competen- cies, advancing the profession through the engagement of its committees and arranging annual, winter, Corporate Counsel, Insurance Industry, technology, regional and other meetings as well as webinars. Scholarly articles and updates from the various substantive law sections are also shared among the membership in the FDCC’s publications, social media channels, webinars and on our website. The Federation also advocates the positions of its membership and the professional legal community through amicus curiae briefs in the courts, administrative and regulatory agencies and within other legal advisory groups. The organization is comprised of trusted colleagues able to connect with one another and refer to their clients to others within the Federation when the need for their specialized areas of experience and capabilities are required. The FDCC maintains its commitment to diversity and inclusiveness among its membership, which is open to qualified individuals who meet the membership criteria. Special programs are also part of the Federation’s efforts to build on the strong foundation of past, current and future members who can help in mentoring and helping others establish, market and differentiate themselves in the industry. The Federation also maintains a mutually beneficial relationship with other organizations within the legal community, including Lawyers for Civil Justice (LCJ), of which the FDCC is a founding member.
