Edward your honor. Never did I say the lady received 2.9 million I said thats what the the left state of Cal's liberal justice system awarded her. Naturally it was reduced by the sane to a little over 1/2 million.
Now lets take a little logical exam on who the spin doctor is with one simple question.
If the lady got her coffee at street corner Ma and Pa's coffee shop do you think ANY attorney would have took case?
Its not about the people its about $$$$
---and divorce--a license to steal I hate to tell you this DJV but while the attorney was telling you what a good deal you got there was one hyping your wife with same spin--bottom line you paid both and they played golf the next day and good laugh over it.
You are right that a good attorney is worth his weight in gold.the problem is the reason you need one is generally because the actions of another attorney.
Mark Twain said it best.
If a town has one attorney he will starve to death but if another comes both will flourish.
Why do you think that almost 2/3 of attorneys in world are in the U.S.??? If you need an answer I'll be happy to reply.
Oh Ed one more thing on your little comment----
"You are a little insurance agent loser in a little town in a backwater state."
Let me give you a little reality vs your spin.
People that give addresses and phone #'s of their office blging, home ect generally have much less to be ashamed of or hide than those that lurk in the shadows behind keyboards anonomously.
Not saying that scenerio applies to you sir but just a rule of thumb.
and speaking of little towns in backward states--- what is it your so proud about in the city of Cinncinati
"43 percent of the population of Cincinnati is black.
The Over-the-Rhine area, where Thomas was shot, is 83 percent black.
The average annual income in Cincinnati is $14,420 per person. In Over-the-Rhine it is $5,359.
Cincinnati is home to multinational corporations like Kroger Co, Procter & Gamble and Chiquita Brands International Inc. Procter & Gamble owns the local baseball team.
The unemployment rate for Greater Cincinnati as a whole is 3.8 percent. For blacks in Over-the-Rhine unemployment is 30 percent. "
---and since salaries there are far below national ave what would that make salary of attorney considering the national ave is Male $69,689 and female $50,648---- looks like there might be discrimination suit there :lol:
and one more thing,while I don't mind being called a liar by you because everyone thats been around here knows you lurk and your spin is baseless but in case there are any new people reading-----
"six men and six women decided on compensatory damages of $200,000, which they reduced to $160,000 after determining that 20% of the fault belonged with Mrs. Liebeck for spilling the coffee.
The jury then found that McDonald's had engaged in willful, reckless, malicious or wanton conduct, the basis for punitive damages. Mr. Morgan had suggested penalizing McDonald's the equivalent of one to two days of companywide coffee sales, which he estimated at $1.35 million a day. During the four-hour deliberation, a few jurors unsuccessfully argued for as much as $9.6 million in punitive damages. But in the end, the jury settled on $2.7 million. "
