WHEREAS, the mission of the American Association for Justice (AAJ), formerly the Association of Trial Lawyers of America (ATLA), includes the commitment to further the rule of law and the civil justice system; and
 
WHEREAS, AAJ embraces the concept of the rule of law as a bright beacon in the founding of the United States of America and in the American system of government, under which no person is above the law and all persons, institutions, and entities are accountable to laws; and
 
WHEREAS, AAJ recognizes that the courts play an integral role in upholding the rule of law and that trial lawyers are essential to maintaining the rule of law on behalf of all Americans;
 
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR JUSTICE supports and is committed to protecting and upholding the rule of law, and urges all branches of government to uphold the laws of the land.

The  American Association for Justice  works to safeguard rights, promote fairness, and strengthen access to civil justice—even when it means taking on the most powerful corporations.
AAJ’s vision is justice for all.
