Lieff Cabraser Hosts Tennessee and Kentucky Trial Lawyers’ Event in Nashville Focusing on Legal Partnerships Benefiting the Injured

Last week, Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein’s Nashville office hosted lawyers from the Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association (TTLA) and the Kentucky Justice Association (KJA) for a joint networking event with a message of partnership among plaintiffs’ attorneys fighting for the rights of businesses and individuals harmed by wrongdoers.

The event was the opening reception for a day of continuing education titled, “Live From Nashville – An Educational Performance in Music City.”

Both TTLA and KJA work to protect the 7th Amendment right to a trial by jury – allowing any person or business to seek justice and accountability through the American court system.
