No question about it, we need tort reform in the USA.

That said, people have also changed.

Lawyers need plaintiffs in order to sue, and the plaintiff is the real
villain in this scenario in my opinion. If the plaintiff wasn't willing
to
initiate an action simply out of greed or the promise of easy money, the
suit would never be filed.

A lawyer is a tool, and you don't blame the hammer when you hit your
thumb.


I don't think that is really the case. It does indeed take people seeking
recovery to start the process. But I have never seen a lawyer get involved
with a case in the interest of justice. They pick and choose who they help
base on yeild, not justice.
