The real said thing is the lawyers win even if they do not in court. It goes
back to the old saying..........
Why don't sharks attack Lawyers...............Professional courtesy.

Amen, Buster.
Perfect example is the current case against Merck concerning Vioxx.
Merck is settling out of court to the tune of $4.85 BILLION. Members
of the class will see something like $120K each while the law firm
Parker Waichman Alonso Mark LLP will rake in many millions for each
trial lawyer involved.
Merck immediately took Vioxx off the market when research showed an
increased risk of heart attack and stroke in those taking the maximum
dosage. I know, I was one of them. (Also involved were Celebrex and
Bextra shortly thereafter). Ostensibly these attorneys have saved us
all from evil Merck out of the goodness of their hearts and at great
personal sacrifice.
It is so sad that the only thanks they will get for all their hard
work and sacrifice to protect us all will be many millions each in
their bank accounts, a mansion and a garage full of Ferraris...
Poor souls...
