South Carolina Association for Justice (SCAJ)

About the SCAJ

Overview

  • Founded: November 1, 1957
  • Location: Columbia, South Carolina

Mission and History

On November 1, 1957, attorneys in South Carolina founded the South Carolina Plaintiff’s Attorney Association, which is now known as the South Carolina Association for Justice (SCAJ). Officially incorporated in January 1958 with 77 members, SCAJ has grown to over 1000 members, becoming a prominent professional organization in South Carolina. In its early years, SCAJ influenced the legal profession by helping to draft the Workers’ Compensation Commission Guidelines for Attorney’s Fees.

 

Throughout its history, the organization has undergone several name changes but has consistently aimed to protect victims’ rights through litigation, lobbying, and raising awareness. SCAJ offers its members various services, including legislative monitoring, newsletters, liability insurance, continuing legal education, and exclusive online forums.
