A holdup without weapons or other physical threat. Good luck in suing. If someone is holding you up, that person probably doesn’t have any money in the first place.
You have no idea how accurate this cartoon is and what an indictment it is of how corporations and the wealthy get away with murder, figuratively and actually, in some cases.
Looking from the inside out, I think society has misplaced a lot of its hatred for lawyers and given judges a free ride. And passively allows obvious problems to sit there decade after decade.
This is what angers me about our system. Too often people file suits to force behavior or punish behavior they do not like even though they know they cannot win. This is especially true of illegal “disciplinary action” in grade schools. The school stays in as long as they can and then drop the actions before trial thus taking away standing from the family of the student and the case is never resolved. However the family is still out whatever money they spent in the defense.
This is decidedly the Trumptards approach to politics along with a constant plea to his Tardettes to fund his litigious efforts with contributions to save him from his own stupidity.

If you or a loved one have suffered death …
If I am dead, I am not suing anyone.
I wonder about a law firm that is this imprecise with their choice of words.

I sued Starbucks ’cause I spilled a frappucino in my lap, and brr, it was cold
I sued Toys ‘R’ Us ’cause I swallowed a Nerf Ball and nearly choked to death
I sued Petco ‘cause I ate a bag of kitty litter and now I’ve got bad breath
I sued Coca Cola, yo ’cause I put my finger down in a bottle and it got stuck
I’m gonna sue, sue, yes I’m gonna sue
Sue, sue, yeah, that’s what I’m gonna do
I’m gonna sue, sue, yes I’m gonna sue
Sue, sue, yeah I might even sue you!

Does the bottle of booze belong to the lawyer or his client??

Remember, the lawyer gets 75% of what you give, so give generously.

if the lawyer ends up dead, it’s called a mistrial.

It’s not all that great. After taxes and lawyer fees the homeless guy only gets a sandwich and a cup of coffee at the mission.

Give him a check. With a paper trail, you can sue him for extortion – lawyer or no lawyer. :)

The lawyer gets 60%. That’s where the blackmail comes in.

Which leaves the question – how much is the lawyer making an hour? And can the beggar afford it, or do they cut it 50/50?
