Unfortunately those with an agenda view opposition as bias or prejudice..Most class action legal specialists don't make a dime if they fail to get either a favorable settlement or a verdict for the class. Same goes for most Plaintiff's attorneys who take cases on contingent fees, which is most of them.
When they win, they can make obscene amounts of money. Some of this money finances future cases. On some cases, the lawyers take big risks and make seven figure expense expenditures trying to get a favorable outcome, only to lose. Overall, these guys usually make money, a lot of money, so don't cry for them.
Still, most plaintiff's claims, and a lot of them are valid ones, against big business would never be brought if the claimants themselves had to pay all the legal fees and expenses out of their pockets.
There are a lot of pro bono cases and contingent actions out there being pursued by lawyers who are not getting paid a dime-they might get their fees at the end, but often not.
Lawyers are like everyone else-some good ones and some bad ones. Some of you might even know one. But, you can't always tell from their green eyes, horns and tails. Good grief, I've never read such biased uninformed garbage in my life, and said with such complete certainty.
Ever noticed how the guy who knows the least usually shouts the loudest in a debate? Lacking brains, they compensate with volume.
That siad, are you infering that all lawsuits have merit?. Do you believe that no matter how trivial, a plaintiff should ALWAYS get their chance to argue their case?..
