WHO WE ARE

Created in 2019 after a class action settlement and subsequent court order in *Scharfstein v BP West Coast Products*, Multnomah County Circuit Ct Case No. 112-17046. OCJ’s purpose is to advance consumer protection in Oregon including, without limitation, advocacy in all forms (including state and federal litigation in multiple venues, legislative and regulatory advocacy), research, and education (including direct consumer education and legal CLEs) targeted at consumer protection in Oregon.

This directive continues to lead OCJ today as we focus on supporting litigation, leading advocacy and policy creation and providing direct consumer engagement. With a dedicated staff and Board of Directors, OCJ has made an impact in Oregon and across the country in helping consumers understand their rights and strengthening consumer protection laws.

OCJ currently does not directly engage in consumer litigation. Rather, it has made a grant to Oregon Consumer Justice Law, a separate and independent professional corporation. OCJ Law actively engages in consumer litigation in line with the court’s order.

OCJ does not have a permanent brick and mortar office. More information about OCJ can be found by accessing www.OCJ.org .
