You have to give this guy his due – he named his blog correctly – Judges Who Sympathize With Doctors – Who Needs Tort Reform?
Now many readers might ask – why do I give this guy any publicity? Well I do believe in the free market of ideas. He disagrees with me, and he is honest why! Malpractice does occur; my problem is that our current system does not do a good job of sorting malpractice from bad outcome (with good practice). Major errors occur in both directions. I want to see more patients compensated an appropriate amount – and less lawyers compensated an exorbitant amount. But a greedy trial lawyer will clearly not like any plan that limits his/her income potential.
