Institute for Justice

The Institute for Justice (IJ) is a nonprofit public interest law firm established in 1991, focusing on constitutional litigation to protect individual liberties and limit government overreach. Headquartered in the U.S., IJ addresses issues related to economic and property rights, employing strategic litigation to challenge laws that infringe on constitutional rights. The organization has litigated over 300 cases, including 12 before the U.S. Supreme Court, and celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2021. IJ provides legal representation at no cost, targeting cases with the potential for broad legal precedent. Its key service areas include economic liberty, property rights, free speech, and educational choice. The organization also produces legal research and policy analyses, and hosts training programs to support the development of future public interest attorneys. IJ represents individuals and small businesses adversely affected by government regulations, advocating for those facing issues like occupational licensing restrictions, eminent domain abuses, and free speech violations.
