Giuseppe represents pharmaceutical manufacturers and large hospitals in individual cases, multidistrict litigation, and class actions. He is a member of the Tucker Ellis team that defends a Fortune 200 pharmaceutical company nationwide in thousands of cases brought by local municipalities, counties, and states. In this role, Giuseppe co-leads a team seeking third-party discovery from the Ohio Department of Health in relation to a product liability lawsuit brought by the Ohio Attorney General.

In addition to his medical and pharmaceutical liability practice, Giuseppe is part of a Tucker Ellis team that serves as national counsel in motor vehicle accident litigation for two Fortune 300 companies.

Before entering law school, Giuseppe served with AmeriCorps, where he helped counsel high-growth start-up companies during the early stages of those companies’ development. He also worked in sales before beginning his legal career, which helped to form his strong and goal-oriented work ethic.

A downtown Clevelander, Giuseppe loves to explore the ever-evolving food scene and venture into new parts of the city. He is known for his dynamic personality and his ability to make those around him smile.
