Sedgwick LLP is pleased to announce that Tiffany Alexander has joined the firm as a partner. An experienced trial lawyer, Alexander’s practice is centered on complex product liability and commercial litigation. She defends clients from a wide range of industries including automotive, heavy equipment and machinery, farming equipment, electronics, and construction equipment and materials.
Alexander has significant experience in Pennsylvania and New Jersey courts defending clients in cases in which catastrophic injuries have been caused by products alleged to be defective or negligently designed.
Additionally, Alexander has a deep understanding of business and management, having earned her law degree while also working as a fixed operations director for a successful automobile dealership. This unique perspective has strengthened Alexander’s understanding of her current clients’ business objectives, as well as her approach to servicing their legal needs.

We’re excited that she has joined Sedgwick.”
In addition to her practice, Alexander has dedicated herself to mentoring and developing young lawyers both within the firm environment as well as serving as a presenter for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania’s Law Day program, which provides opportunities for high school and law school students to participate in Mock Trial courtroom simulations.
Alexander is an active member of the American Bar Association’s Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section (TIPS) and has served as the past chair of the Automobile Law Committee, vice chair of the Ethics and Professionalism Committee and as a member and faculty for the TIPS/ABOTA Trial Academy. She is also a member of the Federation of Defense and Corporate Counsel (FDCC), where she has presented as part of the Trial Master’s program and has served as faculty member for the Deposition Boot Camp. She is a member of the Defense Research Institute (DRI), Pennsylvania Bar Association, Chester County Bar Association and the Product Liability Advisory Council (PLAC).
