Default Re: How Low Will The Lawyers Go?

Pro bono is the correct phrase, DavidG. I know this because I read a lot of John Grisham, who is a lawyer. But AT is right. There is just too much litigation out there, and most of it is frivilous. Some idiot spills hot coffee in their lap and they get thousands (or was it millions?) of dollars. Just because there wasn't a label saying hot coffee in your lap might burn you and the person didn't have enough sense not to know not to put a hot liquid between your legs.
