The McDonald's Lawsuit You Don't Know

As a personal injury lawyer, I am so tired of people pointing to the "McDonald's case" as proof that the jury system is flawed. Before making any generalizations about our system from the McDonald's case, I encourage you to read this article.

Having lived in New Zealand for over 1 year and having been involved as a claimant in the legal system here, I can tell you with assurance that the US legal system is far better than the "no-fault" system here, where there is no right to a trial or to have your case heard by your peers. Rather, you fate is decided by some pencil-pushing bureaucrat.
