Stories like this inflame my estimation of the legal profession. These lawyers should be sanctioned and boycotted (maybe drawn and quartered?). Here's a description of one ad:
"...ads like the 30-second television commercial by a Staten Island law firm that showed a ghostly image of a ferry washed over by a tidal wave of green dollar signs. "If you were injured, you may be entitled to money damages," a man's voice said."
Of course there are those upstanding citizens who seek victimhood and its potential rewards:
"But some passengers are seeking large awards even though they suffered little or no physical injury: One woman wants the city to pay her $200 million for losing sleep. Others are seeking up to $10 million solely for emotional trauma."
All so sad.
