Every Tampa personal injury attorney at Clark and Martino, P.A., is a member of the Florida Justice Association. While the Florida Justice Association may not be well-known to the general public, this organization has been protecting the rights of Florida’s citizens and consumers for more than 50 years.

The Florida Justice Association began a few years after the end of World War II when a group of Florida personal injury attorneys formed the Negligence and Compensation Lawyers of Florida (NACLAF). In 1961, the NACLAF reorganized into the Academy of Florida Trial Lawyers (AFTL), consisting of 50 members. Through years of growth and success, the AFTL directed its attention to justice and protecting Florida’s families, as well as promoting the interests of Florida’s injured citizens.

Eventually, the AFTL became the Florida Justice Association, or FJA. Today, the FJA is dedicated to upholding Florida’s civil justice system so that all Floridians have a fair chance to seek justice in our state’s courtrooms. The FJA is also concerned with holding large corporations and industries to a high ethical standard, in turn keeping Florida’s consumers safer. Finally, the FJA remains active in political, legislative, and journalistic arenas, helping Floridians to know and understand their rights.

It takes constant vigilance to ensure that the rights of Florida’s families are not endangered by insurance and corporate interests. At Clark and Martino, P.A., we are dedicated to defending each client’s rights. Please call us to schedule an appointment with a Tampa personal injury attorney who truly cares about seeking justice on your behalf.
