Legal Work

ACRI’s Legal Department takes on cases that raise issues of principle and effect broad-based policy change. Every year, ACRI argues dozens of precedent-setting cases before the Supreme Court and seeks redress before district and labor courts, government ministries, and Knesset committees.

ACRI is highly regarded in the Israeli legal community for its professionalism and commitment to bringing landmark cases to the Supreme Court. Since its establishment, ACRI has achieved major advancements in a wide range of areas such as: freedom of expression; the right to privacy; freedom of and from religion; women’s rights; criminal justice; equality for Arab citizens; the LGBTQI community’s human rights in the Occupied Territories; and on behalf of minority populations such as migrant workers.
