He’s only accountable to the voters, I guess it was a veiled threat to get someone to defeat him, but Landry’s influence is diminishing by the day.

agree insurance companies are evil especially with property insurance
How do you figure this? Don’t you realize the same bad actors are ruining that homeowners market as well? Plaintiffs attorneys and a sue happy populous. Some times insurance companies act in bad faith, BUT how many times are homeowners trying to scam the insurance companies?
An idiotic/uneducated electorate is probably the leading cause of all these problems.

Who do you think funds that?
Special interests are really killing a lot in this country, but plaintiffs attorneys have been doing tons of damage as well and reform is well past due. No one bats an eye when people are legitimately injured and get fair awards, but we’ve soared well past that where any injury/slight is looked upon as a lottery ticket. That’s the mentality that needs to change, not only in this state, but across the country. I was involved in a very minor fender bender and I had a person attempt to sue me who wasn’t even involved in the accident (he just heard about it from his friend) and decided to jump in.
Why won’t the plaintiffs bar police their own and seek to end these frivolous claims/stop advertising themselves as lottery tickets?
They bitch and moan and get upset that people see them as schysters, but it’s their own fault.

Every lawyer commercial brags about how much they get for their clients. Just recently there was a 400million dollar verdict for a scaffold contractor. How does that make sense under any condition.
As part of a change of the rules on advertising, I think dollar amounts should be forbidden in advertisements OR they have to explicitly state what injuries the smiling happy person suffered that necessitated an award of $500,000

So, how's all that Tort reform they passed been working on? The insurance Industry swore under oath it was going to help...But I did find out it odd that they refused to guarantee the rate reductions they promised.
The measures taken so far have been watered down at best m.

We should also do something about the “pain clinics” that are treating the majority of these auto “injuries”. Eliminate the conflicts of interest with the attorneys often in cahoots with these “doctors”. If someone is injured, let them go to a legitimate doctor or hospital.

reasons Louisiana is unattractive to business. Uneducated and unreliable workforce, unsafe cities with sub standard suburbs
Would you have a better workforce/safer cities/better suburbs IF people weren’t leaving in droves over the unsustainable property/auto insurance rates? Homeowners insurance makes a a lot of properties unaffordable. Now you have a fair number of people starting to self insure, which only lowers the risk pool and leaves insurers with a majority of high risk properties. How do you think that plays out?

Not enough industry in Louisiana to completely ignore the Plaintiff’s bar anymore.
If they were kept in check, we’d at least have a chance at attracting others. Plaintiffs attorneys are a net loser on this state as it just robs from current companies/citizens and does nothing to bring in outside money. They are money vampires. They also serve to make everything more expensive, hurts property values, and are a general nuisance.

The storm chasers are just as bad and seemingly are getting a pass. Hard to have a successful state where the #1 growth industry is sleazy plaintiffs attorneys.

If we had a non-ignorant voter base it wouldn’t be impossible. Run the ambulance chasers out of the legislature, elect someone from a business background as governor. Only way to get out of this mess.

All I’ve seen is talk about reducing auto insurance, is there any move afoot to bring the storm chasing plaintiffs attorneys to heel as well? Improving the legal/judicial climate in this state would do wonders for improving the lives of everyone.
