About the Book

A warrior for justice and a scholar of the law

In Fighting Injustice, famed trial attorney Michael E. Tigar describes the battles--both inside and outside the courtroom--that have made him one of the world's most courageous defenders of personal freedoms.

This memoir combines the compelling details of Tigar's trials (including private exchanges with judges, prosecutors, and defendants) with background information and observations about the law and American society. More than one lawyer's struggle, Fighting Injustice is an incisive examination of the right to counsel and the threats that have jeopardized this right repeatedly over the past four decades--and today.

Includes Michael Tigar's unvarnished account of some of his most memorable (and instructive) cases, including his defense of Vietnam War draftees, the Chicago Seven war protestors, Angela Davis, John Demjanjuk, Terry Nichols and countless others.
What Others Have Said

"When I think of the 6th Amendment and the right to counsel...I think of Michael Tigar. Read this and you will too. No American lawyer has demonstrated more passion for justice."


-Greta Van Susteren
Lawyer and Host of Fox News Channel's On the Record with Greta Van Susteren


"No one since Clarence Darrow has been in the middle of more of his generation's important legal battles than Mike Tigar. His memoir, Fighting Injustice, is must reading for those who wonder if law can still be exciting, heroic and moral. Tigar proves it is, with wit, high style and great stories."


-John Keker

Keker and Van Nest

Former Irangate Special Prosecutor


"I highly recommend this personal and instructive account by one of America's leading criminal defense lawyers. He is both an outstanding teacher and raconteur. Fighting Injustice will be enjoyed by a wide audience, lay and professional."


-Richard Goldstone

Justice of the Constitutional Court of South Africa

Former Chief Prosecutor, International Criminal Tribunal for Yugoslavia
