Protecting American Consumers Together

Taken advantage of by your lawyer? You’re not alone.

You trusted your personal injury lawyer to help you through a difficult moment. But from the start, the system was working in their favor—not yours. What felt like guidance quickly became pressure, confusion, and decisions you didn’t fully understand until it was too late.

A few sentences works best — what happened, who was involved, what went wrong.
Please check any boxes that may apply to your case

Optional: when you check a box, a quick follow-up appears so you can add a specific detail. Skip any you don’t want to answer.

Our Mission

The system was supposed to make you whole. Instead, it made your lawyer rich. PACT exists to flip that — a justice system that protects, not one that profits off the worst day of your life.

We do three things: protect consumers, push the legal system to do better, and put the receipts in public view so the next person doesn’t walk in blind.
