Tip of the Spear

Overview

CJAC Logo

CJAC is known as the tip of the spear among advocates in the fight against policies that propose new private rights of action or other unnecessary expansions of liability that result in excessive and unwarranted litigation in our civil courts. 

We’re fighting for a fair California by protecting against laws that could be used to exploit businesses.

Read on to learn more about our public policy efforts or download our CJAC Civil Justice Priorities booklet below for a succinct overview of our priorities.

Overview

In the Legislature

A fair civil justice system helps California thrive. CJAC works with lawmakers in Sacramento to advance balanced policies that protect access to justice, promote fairness and accountability, and serve the public good. Through thoughtful advocacy, we help shape legislation and prevent measures that would undermine those goals.

Join the Fight

The Coalition for Civil Justice Reform is a CJAC-sponsored ballot measure committee established to support ballot measures aimed at improving California’s civil liability system.

For too long, the well-funded plaintiffs’ bar lobby and its allies in the legislature have obstructed civil justice reforms in California, making our legislature a graveyard for even modest reforms.
