Formed in 1963, the founding members consisted of a small group of dedicated lawyers who were determined to provide a unified voice for civil justice in the courtrooms of Mississippi. Today, more than 50 years later, the Mississippi Association for Justice has over 500 attorneys dedicated to representing people, not corporations. Our members are committed to protecting the health and safety of Mis
sissippi families, to enhancing consumer protections, and to preserving each and every citizen’s right to trial by jury and access to the courts. Since its inception, MAJ has been a steadfast defender of the civil justice system in Mississippi. A core part of our mission starts in the Mississippi Legislature. Through exceptional leadership and vision, MAJ has worked hard to ensure that ordinary citizens always have a voice in the legislative process. Our legislative team works day-in and day-out to provide guidance and assistance to policy makers whose actions affect individuals' rights to seek help in our courtrooms. Our members concentrate their time in the practice of Criminal Law, Domestic Relations/Family Law, Employment Law, Insurance Law, Personal Injury, Product Liability, Social Security, Veteran's Affairs, Workers’ Compensation Law, and more. At MAJ, we continually strive to give our members a competitive edge in today's ever-changing legal climate by providing a host of valuable services including:
• Legislative Representation
• Cutting Edge Continuing Legal Education Programs
• Up-to-the-minute, practice-relevant information delivered direct to your desktop
• Local and statewide networking opportunities
MAJ is proud to have a united membership of attorneys committed to maintaining a civil justice system that protects all Mississippians.
