Here’s a great article from the Consumer Attorneys of California to use as a reference to help debunk the Urban Myths around “frivolous lawsuits.” Consider sharing this link with clients, colleagues or others who may be misinformed about the true nature of civil justice efforts to protect consumer rights. https://www.caoc.org/index.cfm?pg=isstort
Also, if you haven’t seen the film, I strongly recommend the excellent 2011 documentary Hot Coffee which is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video. It details the truth of the case case brought on behalf of Stella Liebeck commonly referred to as the “McDonalds Coffee Case.”
