AboutLanding

The Idaho Trial Lawyers Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of justice for all of the citizens of Idaho. The ITLA began in 1967 and includes attorney, legal staff and law student members. The Right to Trial by Jury and access to the courts for all citizens is our goal. Upholding the Idaho Constitution as well as the U.S. Constitution is paramount. Our mission includes the dedication to making and preserving good law which serves the people of Idaho. ITLA is committed to increasing citizen access to the court system through the ITLA Street Law Clinic and our lawyer referral program. Commitment by attorneys to helping individuals navigate the system is important to us.
