I appreciate the right of Americans to seek redress through their own civil efforts in a tort lawsuit.
But BIg LAW has become a shakedown racket.
Mr. Edwards earned $60 million fortune extorting 33% and every thin dime of that fortune came from the proceeds due to poor defendants.
So that miserable S.O.B. has stolen $60 million from the poor. If he were so concerned with helping the “poor”, he could have chosen to accept only 10% or $20 million dollars,as fees. Surely enough to “feed his family”!
I have little sympathy for the 500 attorneys who split a cool $250 million as fees from the proceeds of the settlement with the LA Dicese of the Catholic Church.
Note that money did not come from the homosexual perverts and pediophilic creeps that actually molested the kids. The legal creeps went after deep pockets.
I wonder how many orphanages and hospitals these estimable 500 ambulance chasers build and support?
The US is heavily over lawyered. May they all starve in abject inability in a sane reformed tort environment.
