Louisiana badly needs tort reform and the Texas version is a good model to study for that.

What type of tort reform do you have in mind?

One of the often cited examples is the "reform" of workers' compensation in Texas. It made it essentially impossible for injured workers to get fair compensation for getting hurt on the job. The employers pay lower premiums, sure, but their carriers steamroll injured workers. Its easy to beat the drum of "reform" until you are an injured worker and you can't get treated fairly because the laws are stacked against you.

With regards to tort reform for auto accidents, what type of reforms do you have in mind? Please give us examples.

Broaden your study on these issues. Step back, read data on all sides of the issues. Don't just focus on billboard attorneys.
