Tort reform in Louisiana drafted and passed by plaintiff lawyers.


That’s the hard truth. Reducing the cost of insurance means you’ve got to reduce the money being paid out. That means money that would have otherwise gone into the pockets of plaintiff lawyers and their clients. Unless Gordon and the rest start making less money and have to cut back, nothing has been reformed. Last I checked, they’re still going strong, doing everything they can get extract the full policy limits from every claim. Who’s going to stop them, their plaintiff lawyer buddies who got into politics? The former plaintiff lawyer judges elected with contributions from their plaintiff lawyer buddies? Prolly not.

Just because the Florida Legislature says it has the goals, it doesn’t mean they will pass. So should Donelon somehow call a special session(can’t happen) while Bell fiddles? I figured since you are running for Commissioner, you would understand how government works, Tim



Spot on! Jim Donelon is at the mercy of the Louisiana Governor and Legislature.

So Tort Reform


Tort reform = passing laws to help insurance companies who in turn do nothing to reduce costs to consumers.

I am still waiting for my car insurance to go down. Anyone who thinks insurance companies actually want to reduce what you pay is an idiot.

The good news is, in Louisiana, You don't have to chase them. Sit on any street corner in any decent size city, and one will come by soon enough

Litigation in FL especially is filthy. I don’t know how companies stay in business out there.

La deserve everything it gets by fostering such a terrible bad faith venue for insurers. All of your horrendous verdicts will cost you in the end. Remember this when youre on a jury.

We currently have UPC and our policy expires in February. Any suggestions on a replacement company? Located outside of Baton Rouge.

Everybody hates lawyers until it's their turn to get cornholed by an insurance company. Then they're the first hypocrites to run to lawyer up.


Yeah, those fricking lawyers that work for the insurance company are cornholing a lot of folks. Imagine lawyers fricking people, then people not liking lawyers.

Now do men after divorce.
