I have heard, however, that in states where they have capped the maximum value a malpractice suit can pay out to a victim, it has had the unintended consequence of increasing malpractice suits, because now the lawyers have to file more cases to keep the same income.

There need to be harsher, direct penalties for lawyers who bring frivolous lawsuits, not just having the case thrown out.
