As of today, the Association of Trial Lawyers of America is no more.  The new name of the organization is the American Association for Justice.  After a vigorous debate, it was determined that rebranding the organization would help to reframe the debate about the role of the civil justice system by taking the focus off the lawyers and putting it on what we try to do.  The mission statement of the AAJ is as follows: "The Mission of the American Association for Justice is to promote a fair and effective justice system – and to support the work of attorneys in their efforts to ensure that any person who is injured by the misconduct or negligence of others can obtain justice in America’s courtrooms, even when taking on the most powerful interests."
