The American Museum of Tort Law is a museum in Winchester focused on personal injury law and civil disputes. It displays cases from the past showing how consumers fought against unsafe products and explains how these legal processes worked.
The museum was founded in 2015 and occupies a former bank building in the city center. It was the first institution in America dedicated entirely to this area of law.
