Ambulance chasers.

| | Comments (1)
I am really glad that scientists and doctors are making great strides in Mesothelioma treatment for people who have it, but man, there are like a gazillion lawyers out there trying to make a profit from all of the poor people who have it.
If you just do a quick Google search for Mesothelioma lawyers,  you get a ton of results!
As soon as this disease started making the news, all of these lawyers suddenly started popping up.
Every single day, I see no less than 10 different Florida lawyer commercials, advertising for this.
They all want to help the victims of this disease sue the pants off of the factory or whatever industry company that may be responsible for causing them to get it.

When I was a kid, I had no idea what was so funny about people calling lawyers ambulance chasers.
Now I do, I totally get it now.
But instead of finding it funny, I find it totally sad and pathetic.
I think it's disgusting just how many lawyers start advertising with their sincere sounding messages of wanting to help these people, but lawyers for the most part, are money grubbing jerks.
I'm sure like 1 out of the 10 different law firms that are advertising for this, actually do care, but the rest of them must be seeing dollar signs because the statute of limitations on mesothelioma here in Florida is so long, the people with the disease have many years that they can file a suit against whoever they feel is responsible for it, and because it can take up to 20 years to even be diagnosed with it.

It makes me kind of sick to see all of those commercials.

Most of the time, aren't the litigants part of a massive class action lawsuit? Where they may not have to pay any fees, but the lawyer gets his or her huge cut when they settle, then the litigants get a pitiful amount of the winnings? I think that is deplorable. It'd be different if these lawyers took on individual cases and got the sick people their money that way.

The Out Campaign: Scarlet Letter of Atheism


Believing there's no God means I can't really be forgiven except by kindness and faulty memories. That's good; it makes me want to be more thoughtful. I have to try to treat people right the first time around.- Penn Jillette
