Chamber of Commerce Uses Scare Tactics
Posted on December 04, 2009The title of a recent US Chamber of Commerce spam email says it all, "Terror by Trial Lawyer." Not only do they denigrate a profession with a long noble history that goes to the core of what it means to be American, the Chamber also feels it necessary to out and out lie...
Budget Office Misquoted on MalPractice Reform
Posted on October 14, 2009If you start seeing headlines that medical malpractice reforms could result in substantial savings to the health care system, don't beleive it. The Congreesional Budgret Office released a repot that savings could be acheived, but if also found that 'imposing limits on [the right to sue for damages] might be expected to have a negative impact on health outcomes...

Italian Researchers New Approach to Mesothelioma
Posted on August 19, 2009Although both men and women can suffer from mesothelioma, but women will statistically often survive longer with the disease.

Sotomayor Not a Big Change to the Court
Posted on August 10, 2009Despite the feigned outrage over one or two comments that Justice Sotomayor has made over the course her long and illustrious judicial career, there is no major change being brought about by her appointment to the nation's highest Court. The seat was previously held by a reasonable Justice who is now being replaced by reasonable Justice...

Mesothelioma Treatment
Posted on November 14, 2008With all the lawyer ads on mesothelioma it is easy to overlook some of the strides that are being made in the treatment of this asbestos related cancer.

McCain Picks Palin
Posted on August 29, 2008Hard to stay away from politics. McCain's pick of Palin is obviously good for Obama. Picking a woman despite her lack of experience looks like a desperate trick. Surprise! Of course, this is not the first time McCain has picked a younger woman. Who are we to stand in the way of true love? In this case, the true love is for her ties to the oil companies that want to buy this election like they bought the last two...
Highpoints at the Democratic Convention
Posted on August 27, 2008Departing from my usual topics, I will point out the obvious, trial lawyers are watching this election closely and cannot afford another Republican administration. If you think the Bush judges will ultimately give you justice when you or a family member are injured or killed by corporate negligence, you are wrong...

FDA Had Warned Digitek Maker - Where was the follow up?
Posted on May 29, 2008Researchers have found a warning letter from all the way back in 2006 that the FDA's parent agency Health and Human services had warned the makers of the now-recalled heart medication back in 2006 of problems with their manufacturing facility. Specifically citing Digitek (as Digoxin) along with other substances produced at their New Jersey facility, the letter note a specific lack of oversight as regards product strength...
Digitek Recall shows FDA Inept
Posted on May 19, 2008The FDA appears late to the party again. This time widely prescribed piolls were made too large and so they had, you guessed it, too much of the medication in each dose. Digitek pills manufactured by Actavis Totowa, distributed by Mylan Pharmaceuticals and sold under the labels "Bertek" or "UDL" have been recalled because they may contain double the dose of the active ingredient...
Judge Decries Preemption
Posted on April 21, 2008Finally, a beautiful and succinct statement from a Federal Judge on the real nature of the move to preempt state courts from having pharmaceutical liability lawsuits.. The two page Order is making the rounds among plaintiffs' attorneys, reassuring us that someone understands that Federal Preemption in drug cases is nothing less that an outright power grab by the federal government, brought to us by the party that used to advocate, hypocritically it appears, for the expansion of states' right and the diminishment of Federal power...

Allstate Suspended In Florida
Posted on January 16, 2008Well they finally made the Florida legislature mad enough to do something. For years Allstate has promised to lower rates if given various tort reforms and other perks from our lawmakers. The state always fell for it (read "insurance money political contributions"), but the companies never lowered their rates and the consumers continued to pay through the nose, only with more and more of their right of access to the courts taken away...
