Attorneys Help
For hundreds of years lawyers have been the brunt of many jokes, mostly in good natured fun. However, for the past many years, trial lawyers have been villainized and attacked in a very methodical and pre-planned manner. These efforts have usually been orchestrated by insurance companies and large manufacturers who are held accountable by trial lawyers when they or their inureds have caused harm to blameless individuals.
The truth of the matter is that trial lawyers help people. Trial lawyers help society. Trial lawyers are good, compassionate people who care about the rights and well-being of their clients and of society as a whole. Our civil justice system was designed to allow EVERYONE, big or small, the opportunity to have disagreements resolved in an orderly and fair manner. Trial lawyers are the champions of that system. They protect the rights of everyone.
If not for trial lawyers most individuals would not stand a chance against large corporate giants, insurance companies and greedy manufacturers of dangerous products. Trial and consumer lawyers enforce the rights of individuals who may have been wronged by another person or business entity. They also help our society stay safer. If not for their efforts asbestos would still be in our schools, Ford Pintos would still be on the road, Phen Fen would still be on Pharmacy shelves. In short, the litigation brought by trial lawyers on behalf of their clients forces changes for the better, and the threat of litigation creates a chilling effect that prompts more safety consideration and creates more fairness between company and consumer.
Some lawyers charge hundreds of dollars per hour for their services. Unlike other lawyers, trial lawyers and consumer lawyers typically work for their clients under a contingent fee arrangement. That means that they are not paid unless they obtain a money recovery on behalf of their client. If they do obtain a money recovery their fee is paid as a percentage of the amount recovered. This arrangement allows anyone, rich or poor, to be able to hire a lawyer when they have been wronged and harmed by someone else.
Be proud to live in a country where, under the law, you are equal to the largest of corporate giants. Be proud to live in a country that has a civil justice system that allows individuals proper compensation when they have been wronged by someone else. Be proud to live in country where there are still trial lawyers and consumer lawyers willing to fight for the little guy, willing to work with no guarantee that they will be compensated unless they win for you.
