US Law refers to the body of legal statutes, regulations, and principles that govern the United States. It encompasses federal, state, and local laws, as well as the U.S. Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land. US Law is characterized by its common law tradition, where judicial precedents established by court decisions play a significant role in shaping legal interpretations. It includes various fields such as criminal law, civil rights, contract law, tort law, and administrative law. The legal system is administered through various courts, including federal and state courts, each with its own jurisdiction and function. US Law also involves legislative processes, where elected representatives create and amend laws, and regulatory processes, where government agencies enforce laws and create regulations. The framework is designed to uphold justice, maintain order, and protect individual rights while balancing the interests of society.
