Trial Lawyers Mobilizing Against Tort Reform
A little bird told me that the Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association is holding a mobilization meeting on Tuesday afternoon in an effort to "educate" trial lawyers on how to frame the issue of whether there should be a cap on damages against doctors in malpractice suits.
Those of you (particularly those in the Tennessee General Assembly) who are for tort reform and trying to improve the standard of care that our doctors provide - especially in the field of obstetrics - should be forewarned. The liberal trial lawyers aren't going down without a fight.
UPDATE: Yep, the rumor is true (although the program is framed as a CLE opportunity).
