The Alaska Association for Justice (formerly the Alaska Trial Lawyers) is a nonprofit organization comprised of trial attorneys practicing in Alaska who represent the interests of people who have been injured or who have unfairly suffered due to the negligent action of others. The organization is also known as the Alaska Association for Justice.
The beginnings of the Alaska Association for Justice can be traced back to meetings that began in the early 1970s with a group of trial lawyers in Alaska. By the mid-1970s, the group formed a chapter of the national trial lawyer group, the American Association for Justice formerly known as the Association of Trial Lawyers of America (ATLA). The organization’s first president was Ames Luce.
Today, the Alaska Association for Justice has grown to include attorneys practicing civil and criminal litigation, large and small. Many of Alaska's top personal injury lawyers and civil trial attorneys are active in the AKAJ. Members network with each other during luncheons and dinner meetings with an educational speaker. The organization also sponsors an annual one-and-a-half-day Civil Conference in the Fall with noted national and local speakers.
