Exactly why many attorneys should be doing something else rather than practicing law...have to compromise their ethics to make a buck.

You must have a case.

. Nope. I've never been involved in a civil case, and my only brush with the law was 1 reckless driver way back in my teens. You must be an attorney or a law student.

Anyone practicing law in Ca is under suspicion of something:)
The state that does the most to pervert legal view IMHO.

IMO, anyone who sees what it is like to live outside 'The Nanny State' (California) and chooses to still live there either:

A. Needs their head examined.

or

B. Is so tied in multiple ways to the state that extraction would be detrimental in the long run.

People blame lawyers for all kinds of problems.

....that are often created by lawyers.

What kind of world would it be if it were run by insurance companies?

Much better than one run by lawyers, and held down by regulation and overreach. Insurance companies are usually publicly held, and have a fiduciary duty to their share holders. This doesn't change, it is 'known going in'. I want to give insurance companies as little of my money as possible, but I respect them in a business sense. Are you against insurance companies maximizing shareholder value?..If you are, those aren't the words of someone who believes in Capitalism. I don't have the highest opinion in the world of the insurance industry, but it is higher than that of the legal profession.

Byproduct or not it doesn't lessen the end result.

I'd rather take my chances re no recalls if it meant significantly fewer lawyers and significantly less regulation.
