Z,

>If all did, and sleazeballs like Edwards won them awards, the neuro surgeons would be out of business, and people with bad backs would be sentenced to life long suffering.

But that's highly unlikely.


Because these sleazeballs lawyer was nowhere in the league of sleazeboall Edwards and he didn't win them over by bringing them to tears, for a cool $300,000 to $500,000 in his own pocket - 20 to 33% of the 1.5M jury award sought?

Again, divide this by 100 surgeries, and each patient with bad back would have to pay extra $3,000 to 5,000 trial lawyer tax.

Tell me how this is helping anyone - other then sleaseballs like Edwards?

Joe
