Opportunistic con artists, with low moral values, who master the use of words and procedures, created by their own, to force the involuntary transfer of money for personal gain, but whom produce nothing of real value.

Feel free to add more and let’s see who is the first to say “everyone hates attorneys until you need one”. My response to this is that there are many good and honest attorneys who can do personal injury work, but they don’t have to be a scumbag.

If they say they will fight for you, they should have to do so in PPV Thunderdome.

Tell me the origins of why lawyers are allowed to charge 40% fees?
It is obscene and unethical, and then they have the nerve to say insurance companies make too much money.

Unfortunately “your money” will come to you only after they take their 40% cut, and that’s without all the other expenses, loans etc that they set you up with

The real issue is that our courts are the vessel by which this money transfer is accomplished. Public bodies funded by taxpayers.

If “limited government” conservatives really wanted to limit government, they would take the club out of the hands of the plaintiff bar and make them arbitrate everything.

Because their clients agree to it. Pretty simple, really.

Reality is that insurance companies prefer to settle, judges in Louisiana are elected morons, and juries are even dumber than the judges. That’s why you see those settlements and why rates are so high

Then negotiate for a lower fee or get yourself one of those 25% fee lawyers.

You’re free to finance your own case and pay your lawyer an hourly rate as he invoices you.
