Overlawyered is a law blog on the subject of tort reform run by author Walter Olson. Founded in 1999, it is widely considered the world's first law-oriented blog.[1]

The subject of the site is absurdities,[2] excesses,[3] and abuse[4] of the American tort law system. Its regular readership includes thousands of lawyers in the United states, as well as physicians, and readers in other countries considering American-style tort systems.[1][2]
