Yep, I really dislike lawyers for this reason, or even greedy people in general. I get in a car accident that wasn't my fault in any way and will have to deal with neck pain for the rest of my life and get next to nothing, yet someone spills hot coffee on themselves when there is a CAREFUL HOT!! Warning and they get millions. F*** the Justice system..
