I was using this result as an example.<br /><br />Many people aren't aware of the many procedural steps that weed out lawsuits that are without merit. Summary judgment is a good example of that, as in Ms. Cooper's case.<br /><br />My initial comment was simply to point out a positive result in the court system among a group (KF's audience by and large) who doesn't believe the system works, or that it needs "reform".<br /><br />I don't really know what to make of your reference to t.v. ads promoting lawyers as "guaranteeing access" to the courtrooms. Getting an attorney has nothing to do with legislation passed by the federal and state governments to limit time, liability and damages in a way that harms consumers and individuals. <br /><br />I don't think that t.v. ads do any favors for lawyers, by the way. In fact, t.v. ads are one of the things that turn the public against lawyers. <br /><br />Also, lining up six deep and five wide, as you phrased it, is the right of every American. You'd apparently have that right taken away until you needed it, I presume.<br /><br />I don't really need an ad writer; I'm not advertising.<br /><br />Andrew M.
