David Wm. Boone, a founding partner of Boone & Stone, has been named the new president of the Board of Trustees for the Civil Justice Foundation, a non-profit organization committed to consumer advocacy, consumer justice, and fighting to defend consumer access to justice.
Mr. Boone leads CJF into its 21st year. CJF has helped raise money and award more than $1,000,000 in grants to dozens of grassroots consumer advocacy groups working diligently for systematic change.
The Civil Justice Foundation, founded in 1986 by members of the American Association for Justice (formerly the Association for Trial Lawyers of America), provides grants to non-profit grassroots organizations throughout North America through fundraising. Recent grant recipients include the Gray Panthers, Citizens for Reliable and Safe Highways, Kids in Danger, and the Louisiana Environmental Action Network.
Creating grassroots support for consumer advocates supports our constitutional belief in the rights of the individual. CJF exemplifies what we do as consumer legal advocates on a daily basis.
An attorney since 1978, Boone has extensive experience litigating catastrophic injury claims, product liability, medical injury, and whistleblower/false claims work. Mr. Boone has been recognized as one of the top plaintiff’s personal injury attorneys in the southeast.
