Advocacy

Fighting to Keep West Virginia Families Safe
WVAJ is the only voice at the state capitol dedicated to protecting your constitutional right to trial by jury.  Access to our civil courts holds wrongdoers accountable and protects you, your families and our local businesses.  We work every day to protect your rights.

Amicus Committee
WVAJ reviews and selects significant cases pending before the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals and other courts.  WVAJ intervenes and files an amicus on behalf of West Virginia residents and businesses.

Civil Justice Issues

Our 7th Amendment right to trial by jury is one of the most fundamental rights we have as Americans. Our civil courts ensure that when our rights are threatened or we are harmed physically or financially, we can receive justice — even when taking on the most wealthy and powerful interests.  There is an unprecedented attack on our 7th Amendment rights.  It is being led by billion-dollar corporate interests who want to increase profit at our expense. Our civil courts are the only place where they can be held accountable.  If there is no accountability, none of us are safe.
