I will let everyone know if I hear anything.

The truth is that almost no one gets rich from the courts these days but many wind up paying their lawyers tidy sums.Lawyers are the only ones who get rich and they often tantalize potential clients with dreams of big payouts knowing that it really means a bigger check for them as well.Get rid of the bad lawyers, the problem becomes less of an issue...Just my thoughts on it.

Lawyers are the only ones who get rich and they often tantalize potential clients with dreams of big payouts knowing that it really means a bigger check for them as well.

But our civil courts are just so burdened that there is no way to keep up.We are an overly litigious society and that is a shame. We've been taught that the courts are the first step in resolving disputes, not the last, and that it can be a veritable lottery of free money.However, the only people getting rich are the lawyers, trust me, I know.Sere: It is a shame and the problem is that legitimate cases, like this, one keep getting pushed back. Also, as you pointed out, the delay favors larger companies with the resources to stick it out. Little guys either can't sue or are forced to settle for pennies on the dollar because they can't afford the fight.We need to start A) Beefing up our civil system and B) tossing out stupid lawsuits early. If we can do both, we might be able to save the system at a reasonable cost.

We are an overly litigious society and that is a shame. We’ve been taught that the courts are the first step in resolving disputes, not the last, and that it can be a veritable lottery of free money.

However, the only people getting rich are the lawyers, trust me, I know.
