Part of the problem is what tw touched on... how the legal system operates.
There is a real need for people to seek redress for injuries from those responsible. That must not be downplayed because of abuses by some.
That said.....the television ads for personal injury lawyers, ruffle my feathers, big time. They're blatantly appealing to the get rich quick, money for nothing, quick buck, scumbags.
They're offering a commission, a piece of the action, for the use of your name/story, in fleecing somebody. It's as if they were soliciting screenplays for a docudrama.
