Most contactable professional association

"We Will Fight" Guarantee

We pride ourselves on fighting for our members and fighting for what's right, so much so that we've decided to enshrine it as a member guarantee.

After paying decades' worth of union dues, members have been told by their previous union that they would not receive legal assistance. Common reasons for the lack of support include their case being against another member, against a union official, or against the policy stance of the union. We back our members regardless.

Our guarantee is simple. We will fight for you or you will receive every member dollar you've ever paid back in full.
