The problem with contingency fees is not that they are a bad idea, it is that they are abused. They are still necessary to assure equal protection. Ok, how about this, keep contingency fees but consider excluding punitive damages from the fee calculation *and* most importantly, impose "loser pays." What good for the goose is good for the gander...if a lawyer expects to profit from 1/3 of the spoils when he wins then he should pay 1/3 of the other sides costs if he loses. The point is to build a natural check into what is now a run-a-way system not to preclude the really injured from recourse. The Bar does not live up to its high calling to police its own. I agree. There seems to be no incentive for them to do so. |
