hroughout history, the civil justice system has kept Americans safe by allowing them a fair chance to receive justice when they are injured by the negligence of others – even when it means taking on the most powerful corporations.
When corporations and their CEOs act irresponsibly by cutting corners on safety, producing unsafe products, polluting our environment or swindling their employees and shareholders, the last resort to hold them accountable is in our courts.
The legal system provides justice to those injured by deliberate misconduct and deters future misconduct by holding wrongdoers accountable.
The civil justice system makes a difference.
