Advocacy Capability
LCJ provides corporate and defense lawyers a united voice in advocacy through white papers, official testimony, formal comments, briefs and other tangible resources. Operating for almost thirty years, LCJ has cultivated partnerships that have proven valuable in advancing its advocacy initiatives with Congress and the Judicial Conference committees responsible for the federal procedural rules.
Conferences That Turn Information Into Action
Twice yearly, LCJ assembles nationally recognized policy makers and practitioners, including members of Congress, distinguished judges and other opinion leaders, to discuss the latest developments in civil justice reform. LCJ conducts dynamic interactive sessions in which its members identify priorities for reform and develop strategies to promote litigation reform at the state and federal levels. These meetings represent an exchange of ideas between LCJ members and the nation’s most important decision makers. Speakers from recent conferences have included former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, U.S. Attorneys General Eric Holder and Michael Mukasey, U.S. Senator Charles Grassley, U.S. Senator Orrin Hatch, U.S. Senator John Cornyn, Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour, former Chief Judge Randall R. Rader, U.S. Court of Appeals, Federal Circuit, and Judge Paul W. Grimm, U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland.
Rapid Response System
LCJ has created a rapid response system to respond to legislative and rulemaking developments. With this system, LCJ harnesses an active network of committed defense lawyers.
Library
LCJ provides its members with access to an online library that contains almost 30 years worth of information on key civil justice issues.
Volunteer Network
Thousands of hours of work each year ensure the success of LCJ initiatives. LCJ’s partnership with the defense bar organizations make us 20,000 strong. Our affiliated experienced defense counsel contact legislators, provide testimony before state and federal rulemaking bodies, and advocate systemic improvements on behalf of the defense community. These efforts have resulted in changes to federal procedural rules and legislation and the federal rules that result in a tremendous cost-savings for our members and their clients.
Continuing Legal Education Credits
LCJ provides members opportunities to satisfy their Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credit requirements since each LCJ conference is CLE approved in most states.
