What Maryland Medical Legal Foundation Inc does
Mission
The nature of the foundation's operations is to organize and operate an association exclusively for the charitable, educational, and scientific purposes through studies, research, surveys, writings and lectures, and instructions concerning investigations of disabilities due to any type of violence, injury, or natural causes which are sudden and unexpected, and other medical phenomena.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $14k to $45k (+215%).
How it's funded, over time
