American Law Institute (ALI)

The American Law Institute (ALI) is a prestigious organization founded in 1923 that aims to improve and clarify U.S. law. Comprising legal experts, judges, and scholars, ALI produces influential publications, including the Restatements of the Law, which distill and summarize court decisions and legal principles. These Restatements help judges and lawyers interpret laws consistently. ALI also seeks to promote uniform laws across states to enhance legal predictability.
