The Georgia Civil Justice Foundation (GCJF) is a nonpartisan resource for anyone seeking to understand, preserve, or restore the basic functions of civil justice.
GCJF supports public education about the civil justice system and how to gain access to the civil justice system when it is needed. Our goal is to reach all Georgians with a message that presents civil justice as society’s means of assuring fair play for everyone.
One of the most effective ways to educate people of all ages about law today is through educational law talk podcasts. Our podcasts about civil law, legal history, legal advice, and more are free and easy to listen to on the go. Our podcast, “See You In Court”, is our opportunity to enlighten and empower the public about the state’s civil justice system and what it means for your individual rights.
The civil justice system ensures all people the right to bring individual grievances or complaints before an independent court. A person can file grievances against another person, a company, or even the government. The system allows both parties a fair opportunity to share their side of the story before a judge or jury. It’s designed to hold wrongdoers accountable and can ensure compensation for someone injured due to misconduct. What’s most important to know about our civil justice system is this: It gives everyone a fair chance.
