How the Civil Justice System Protects Consumers

Keeping our courthouses open to all is good for everyone. This thoughtful and informative article will help you to educate yourself about how the civil justice system protects consumers in the areas of product safety, medical negligence, environmental oversight, corporate wrongdoing, and many others.

Their efforts have addressed dangers in the home and the workplace, on the road and in the sky — and by doing so have improved the quality of life for each of us.
