Fighting Corporateering

Access to Justice

The legal system has more than its share of problems. It can be time-consuming, frustrating, expensive, emotionally-draining, and, at times, unreasonable. Still, the judicial branch has been the only remaining branch of government where the average person can reasonably expect to routinely succeed at taking on the rich and powerful.

In many cases, big corporations have succeeded at limiting liability for corporations, taking the individual's right to trial and removing the person's right to recover damages against a corporation. Consumer Watchdog works to protect the right of individuals to hold corporateers accountable in court.
