Vermont Association for Justice (VTAJ)

About the VTAJ

Mission and History

The Vermont Association for Justice (VTAJ) is a statewide non-profit association of trial lawyers. VTAJ serves to support trial attorneys through Continuing Legal Education (CLE) seminars, publications, and networking opportunities.

With nearly 400 members, the VAJ is one of the largest legal organizations in the state.

As an affiliate of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America, membership in the organization is available to attorneys who regularly represents the plaintiffs in Vermont personal injury or workers' compensation cases. The headquarters for the organization are in Burlington, VT.

VTAJ has emerged as a powerful force in state politics. The VTAJ's political action committee, the Vermont Trial Lawyers for Public Justice, provides contributions to candidates that support individual rights in an adversarial civil justice system.

The mission and goals of the organization include:

  • upholding and defending the Constitutions of the United States and the State of Vermont;
  • promoting and advancing the administration of justice for the public good and trial by jury;
  • training in all fields and phases of advocacy;
  • advancing the cause of those who are injured in person or property and who must seek redress therefore; and
  • resisting the undue and constant efforts of others to curtail the rights of such injured persons.
