Courts - "Judicial Hellholes" [Updated]
The Wall Street Journal Blog is posting a list of the top 6 "judicial hellholes", as designated by the American Tort Reform Association. Three of the six are in Illinois.
A reader to the WSJ Blog comments: "Yeah! We didn’t make the list this year! Oh wait, tort reform has cut my practice in half and I’m handling divorces again. Comment by Mississippi Lawyer"
[Update 12/14/06] My friend, Louisville attorney Diana L. Skaggs of the blog, Divorce Law Journal, responded immediately last evening:
Marcia, I could take your post and have a lot of fun running with it if I had the time. You were taunting me to run with it, were’nt you? Anyway, I’m slammed with work and unable to take the bait. Give me a little notice next time and we’ll have some fun. That baloney about divorce work being what one does when all else fails is such an insult not only to divorce lawyeres but to the public who needs and wants competent representation. Diana
