Nevada households pay $4,603 a year for lawsuit abuse — and trial lawyers own the statehouse.
The Nevada Justice Association was the top donor to state lawmakers in 2024. Lien-based clinics, lawsuit funders, and billboard attorneys keep Silver State drivers paying some of the highest auto premiums in the country.
The Latest from PACT
Press coverage, PACT original videos, and reform updates that put the issue in focus.
No one deserves to be victimized by personal-injury attorneys who exploit loopholes in an unregulated system that drives up costs for everyone. We’re committed to a legal system that protects rather than exploits, because consumers deserve a justice system they can trust.
Two PACT projects, built for the people the system exploits.
Standalone platforms — practical guidance for the moment after a crash, and a place for victims to put their own story on the record.
Before You Call That Lawyer
Practical guidance for victims on navigating the immediate aftermath of an accident without falling prey to settlement mills.

Where lawsuit abuse is winning, and where consumers are fighting back.
These are the states where the fight is most active — proven reform wins, and documented fraud rings driving up costs for everyone else. Click a state for the story.
States delivering measurable savings after enacting meaningful tort, venue, or legal-advertising reforms.
States with documented legal-fraud rings, organized staged-crash conspiracies, or entrenched lawsuit abuse.
States where reform activity has not yet reached national attention, though efforts are advancing in many.
The costs do not stop with the lawsuit.
PACT tracks the fallout where consumers actually feel it: higher premiums, aggressive ad saturation, pressure on family budgets, and the everyday expenses that absorb the cost of lawsuit abuse.
