First Liberty is the largest legal organization in the nation dedicated exclusively to defending religious liberty for all Americans. We believe that every American of any faith—or no faith at all—has a fundamental right to follow their conscience and live according to their beliefs. Our nation's Founding Fathers established this right as our First Freedom nearly two and a half centuries ago, and we intend to keep it that way.
On the Frontlines:
For over 35 years, First Liberty President, CEO and Chief Counsel, Kelly Shackelford, has been leading the fight to reclaim religious freedom in America. Joining Kelly on the frontlines is a dedicated team of legal experts who have helped First Liberty achieve an unparalleled win rate of over 90% across all legal matters. The nation's best attorneys, defending your first freedom.
What’s more, we do this without ever sending our clients a bill. No matter how long their cases take or how much they cost, they will never pay a dime for our legal services.
Making History Together:
First Liberty is undefeated at the U.S. Supreme Court. We’re 9 – 0, including 4 precedent-setting victories that have completely changed the landscape of religious freedom for all Americans.
These landmark victories have laid the groundwork for protecting the freedom of every American to live out their faith:
- Coach Joe Kennedy’s win allows public school teachers, employees, and coaches nationwide to freely express their faith while at work.
- A Maine family’s win prevents government from denying participation in funding programs for religious reasons.
- Postal carrier Gerald Groff’s win allows all employees to seek reasonable religious accommodations at work.
- The Bladensburg Peace Cross win allows historical and religious monuments to remain standing.
We Stand for You:
Our nation's diversity has always been one of its greatest strengths. No matter your faith, ideology, or background, we will always defend your ability to freely live according to your beliefs—because the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is not conditional.
Whatever the threat you may face, from attacks on prayer or wearing a cross necklace, First Liberty will be there to defend your rights.
