Hi Don,

Court cases' costs are unreasonably high.
Courts need not be involved ... just lawyers.
A few weeks ago there was an article in Forbes magazine saying that
the /average/ billing by lawyers at moderately sized firms in the US
is now $1500..$1800/hr, and billing by lawyers from top firms is now
$2600..$3000/hr.
Litigating a product liability case routinely takes hundreds to
thousands of hours depending. True, many of those hours will be for
paralegals unless/until the case gets to arbitration or court - but
even small firms now bill their paralegals at over $200/hr.
