AAJ works to strengthen the civil justice system by protecting Americans' basic legal rights and holding negligent corporations accountable through the Supreme Court of the United States, state courts, and the federal regulatory system.
American consumers are vulnerable to injury or death from dangerous and defective products every day. AAJ works to educate the public about these issues and protect the legal rights of consumers.
According to the Institute of Medicine (IOM) preventable medical errors kill as many as 98,000 people every year at a cost of $29 billion. If the Centers for Disease Control classified medical errors as a category it would be the sixth leading cause of death, killing more people annually than auto accidents or guns.
