To showcase how damaging lawsuit abuse and excessive tort costs are to our economy and American consumers, Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse (CALA) tapped John Dunham & Associates (JDA) to compile a report on the impact of tort costs and economic benefits of tort reform across all 50 states. Among other findings, the report found that lawsuit abuse costs Americans:
- A “tort tax” of $488 per person
- 2 million jobs
- $143.8 million in wages
While we can’t say we’re surprised by these findings, the results make it clear that America is in desperate need of tort reform – now more than ever. Join CALA in our fight to bring fairness back to our legal system.
