Both numbers are stunning "Tyler Cowen of the Volokh Conspiracy writes :

The number stunned me. Last year trial lawyers pulled in $40 billion from lawsuits, or twice as much as the revenues of the Coca-Cola company.

So here's my question: Is he stunned that the American Lawyer's list of the top 100 law firms (who do mostly corporate defense work) grossed more than $47 billion last year?

Why is only one of these numbers stunning?"
