Bowman and Brooke Announces Dallas Leadership

Bowman and Brooke has elected Kurt Kern as managing partner and J. Karl Viehman as co-managing partner of the firm’s Dallas office. They will both serve a one-year term, which began Feb. 1.

Kern, a 1984 graduate of SMU’s Dedman School of Law, joined the firm in 2011 from Hartline Dacus Barger Dreyer to establish the firm’s first Texas office as managing partner. He focuses his practice on defending corporations and manufacturers and distributors of auto, truck, agricultural and other components in high-stakes product liability matters, many that frequently deal with catastrophic injuries and wrongful deaths.
