Average Rating: Rating: - Class Action/Crass Action Walter Olson's latest truth telling on a class action lawyers is an outstanding analysis of a festering and costly problem in our legal system. Whether it's guns, tobacco, or some other vice, the plaintiff class action lawyers have found a real honeypot of fee generating lawsuits. Unfortunately, many in corporate America enter into sweetheart settlement deals to buy peace (and res judicata) while enriching the attorneys with millions of dollars in fees. This is an important book that should influence public policy on this very significant civil justice issue. Rating: - America needs to read this book There's an old Latin maxim that asks, "Who watches the watchmen?" I just finished _The Rule of Lawyers_ and Olson should be thanked for piecing together more than a mere series of judicial outrages. Olson shows how trial lawyers have syphoned billions of dollars into their own pockets while manipulating legislatures and judges in order to shield themselves from accountability. This is nothing short of an assault on the Constitution. Every American who cares about the future of the country (please forgive the purple prose, but I'm serious here) needs to read this book.
