You rail on personal injury lawyers and workers comp lawyers, as though

99% or higher percentage of honest and hardworking.

I only go on their sleazy ads and the number of unsolicited mailings
my wife got after a very minor accident report at work (no cost
incurred at all)

Are you advocating banning mail advertising also? I'm not sure how you
expect the system to work.


I suspect you don't know what happened with the "woman" on her cell or how
much pain she incurred. Are you psychic?

I was standing next to her when she pulled the "Morgan and Morgan"
(one of our TV lawyers) card out of her purse and asked HER LAWYER if
she should refuse medical care.
I walked away, knowing nobody was hurt here, except maybe anyone who
buys medical or auto insurance next year.


Well, I it sounds like she thought that was an option. People refuse medical
help all the time. Sometimes that right, sometimes wrong. Again, how did you
know she wasn't actually hurt? If I were her attorney (I don't practice that
sort of law), I would tell her to get treated.

Perhaps instead of walking away, you should have asked her if she was ok?
Sometimes injuries aren't obvious. Again, rail all you want, but the typical
sort of response some make is... just wait, you'll see.
