CJAC - Civil Justice Association of California

The Civil Justice Association of California is a coalition of citizens, taxpayers, businesses, local governments, professionals, manufacturers, financial institutions, insurers, and medical organizations.  Founded in 1979 as the Association for California Tort Reform, they are dedicated solely to improving California's civil liability system.

CJAC advocates on behalf of measures to bring punitive damages under control, bring fairness to the system of allocating damages for negligently-caused business losses, reduce expensive employment termination cases, prevent abusive litigation under the state's Unfair Competition Law, and encourage alternative dispute resolution.  CJAC's research validates the harm lawsuit abuse causes to taxpayers, businesses, consumers, and professionals and delivers the facts to key policymakers and opinion leaders.
