There's a big difference between the Iomega case and that one, though. Negligence does happen, and I don't think anyone here wants to eliminate lawyers. There are legitimate cases out there, and that one of Ron's sounds like it may be one of them (from what he said). I don't think you should be calling Ron lawyer sleaze without any evidence--you don't know what % he took on that case anyway.

However, this case against Iomega appears, on the surface, to be very weak and just another example of a lawsuit-happy society. This suit against Iomega looks like it's from people who can't take responsibility for their own action, and any self-respecting lawyer shouldn't take such a case.
