Institute for Legal Reform : ウィキペディア英語版 | Institute for Legal Reform The US Chamber Institute for Legal Reform (ILR) is an advocacy group founded in 1998 by the United States Chamber of Commerce, "representing the nation's business community" with a focus on what it calls "tort reform."〔ILR website, (About ILR ). Retrieved June 22, 2012.〕〔OpenSecrets.org, (Lobbying Spending Database ). Retrieved May 8, 2009.〕 == Stances on issues == ILR takes a pro-defendant stance, condemning the influence that plaintiff trial lawyers have in expanding common law through tort and securities litigation. Accordingly, ILR promotes arbitration over litigation, increased attorney–client privilege, reduced discovery, and statutory caps on damage awards.〔ILR website, (Issue Resource Center ). Retrieved May 8, 2009.〕 ILR is affiliated with the United States Chamber of Commerce, a non-profit trade association lobbying group representing businesses and industry associations. Through ILR, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has launched multiple lobbying efforts against trial lawyers.〔Garland, Susan.
