You’ve likely heard politicians talk about Tort Reform, often framed as a way to “fix” or streamline the legal system. In reality, it’s far more complex. Tort reform can directly impact your ability to hold powerful corporations and insurance companies accountable.
Join Andrew Iacobelli of Iacobelli Law Firm as he breaks down what tort reform really means and how some policy changes can limit access to the courts and weaken civil justice.
At its core, tort law is one of the public’s strongest tools for accountability. From improving vehicle safety to removing dangerous products from the market, the civil justice system has played a key role in protecting the public.
