New York Lawyers
By Lance Winslow
Do you ever feel we just have too many lawyers? I know your case is relevant and you probably deserve good reputation and there are plenty of good lawyers listed on the side bar... But most lawsuits are frivolous and unfounded and they are costing this nation in horrendous decreases in output and real productivity. I remember recently reading a case where some girl thru a coke at her boyfriend in Mc Donalds, then proceeded to have a fight with him, ordered her meal then turned around and slipped on the spilt soda and sued and won for 100K. Please stop this insanity. Caesar had some interesting comments on lawyers didn`t he? In the medical malpractice field outrageous stories of lawsuits. Sure there were some serious issues, yet who pays this cost? You and I. And in the automotive field too, high lawsuits is preventing new technology, since no company wishes to stick their necks out to build safer, more fuel efficient or more reliable cars, so we all go with out such technologies. We even have lawyers picking targets to bomb in wars? WOW? I thought war is hell and that is when you bring hell to your enemy to get him to see your political will as per von Clauswitz, it seems everyone else is reading from the same play book yet we act as if we should invite the opposing team into our locker room to review each play in the play book for tea during half time? The schools cannot teach, kids cannot have playground equipment because someone might get hurt and sue the school, city, or park and recreation districts? And what do we do? We are educating more people to be lawyers? Yep, there are more young people studying law to become lawyers than at anytime within the recorded history of mankind, great a new growth industry? Wonderful? Wait, I will finish my comment in a minute, I have to run to the restroom...ah but first I have to call my lawyer to see if this is permitted? I have personally had enough of this crap?
