The American Judicature Society, which brings a public perspective to justice system issues, has an unwavering commitment to advancing justice for society.  AJS accomplishes its mission through the backing of thousands of individuals from all walks of life who are dedicated to promoting the effective administration of justice.

By adding your support, you will help AJS carry out its activities to make the courts more effective.  The projects and activities of AJS are described throughout this website.  After reviewing them, we hope you will agree to lend AJS your support.

Each year, leading firms from throughout the country contribute to the work of AJS with annual gifts ranging from $1,500 - $5,999+, with corresponding benefits as shown below.

Benefactor contributions support ongoing work related to judicial selection, independence, and ethics; the preservation and improvement of the American jury; the impact of pro se litigation; and more recently, the intersection of science and law, among other justice system concerns.

The Benefactor program also helps underwrite the cost of Judicature, the Society's award-winning, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for analysis and comment on issues being shaped in and by the courts. Judicature continues to be a prime resource for lawyers, judges, community and business leaders, members of Congress, and scholars, as it has been for more than 90 years.

Participation as an AJS Benefactor Firm is an affirmation and endorsement of the mission and work of the American Judicature Society.  If your firm is interested in joining the ranks of Benefactors, click here.  To learn more contact Seth S. Andersen.
