FJA Research & Education Foundation

The FJA Research and Education Foundation has a straightforward mandate – promote the study and understanding of Florida’s justice system and the ways preserving this system benefits consumers, victims, and all Floridians. The Foundation, established in June 1992 as a non-profit charitable organization, was known as The Academy of Florida Trial Lawyers Research and Education Foundation, Inc. until its name changed in 2007.

By commissioning objective, independent research, the FJA Research and Education Foundation serves as a counterbalance to erroneous, misleading, and manufactured reports produced by corporate-funded think tanks undermine Floridian’s ability to get a fair hearing at each step of the legal process.
