American Assn for Justice
In 1946, a group of plaintiffs' attorneys involved in workers' compensation litigation founded the National Association of Claimants' Compensation Attorneys . As their work broadened beyond workers' compensation, in 1960 the NACCA changed its name to the National Association of Claimants' Counsel of America, and four years later, to the American Trial Lawyers Association. In 1972, these groups merged as the Association of Trial Lawyers of America . In 1977, ATLA's headquarters moved from Boston to Washington, D.C. Today, the American Association for Justice is a broad-based, international coalition of attorneys, law professors, paralegals, and law students. Wikipedia*
