Because he invested $100,000 + in most of those cases, in his money, not even counting his time; without his investment of time and money the insurance co.s would not have paid the victims anything, and because a good plaintiff's attorney knows how to increase the value of a case so that it's worth enough that the jury or defendant decides to award the plaintiff enough that even with taking 33% out, the victim is well compensated. Yeah, it's brutal, but trust me, ins. cos. screw alot more people, alot more often than any plaintiff's attorney ever thought about.

I still think Cheney will deliver a better performance.
I am a pure capitalist and I agree that people should be paid for their work, and if your customers are foolish enough to overpay that is their problem. I just find Edwards positions on social issues are inconsistent with his real life actions as a trial lawyer. Thanks for helping make my point clearer.
