The Personal Injury Lawyer Directory
I just had to share the 10 Most Rediculous Lawsuits of All Time. Highlights of my two favorites:
- If you can’t sue the system, sue yourself. 1995, Robert Lee Brock sued himself for $5 million.
- Negligent security is a legitimate claim, when you’re the victim, not the perpetrator! 2002, Edward Brewer sued Providence Hospital for $2 million. He claimed that the hospital was negligent because it had not prevented him from raping one of its patients.

- Google’s New Algorithm – Should you be worried?
Google launched a new algorithm 02/23/11 that affects 11.8% of U.S. websites – heavy penalties will be slapped on poor quality sites, sites with duplicate content, and plagiarizers. This may mean the downfall of Demand Studios and the like, but there are two major attorney marketing companies that sell the same content over and over to dozens, perhaps even hundreds or thousands of lawyers for their “info centers” and, in some cases, even entire websites are duplicate content.
