Overview

Mission

Michigan lawsuit abuse watch is working to increase public awareness of the problem we define as lawsuit abuse and its causes to the judicial system as well as to society in general. We are working to re-balance the liability system to accord justice to the injured, protection to consumers, and encouragement to businesses to grow and stimulate the economy.

What it reported doing in 2022

Michigan lawsuit abuse watch winded down its efforts in 2022 and ended operations.
