Description:
Everyone who loves justice will get a big portion of food for thought with this deep outrage creating, well-researched work of Consumer activist and 1996 presidential candidate Ralph Nader and lawyer Smith. They expose the role of power lawyers and international corporations at the center of trends that have increased corporate power with time.. They declare that there is widespread belief among Americans that something is deeply wrong with the legal system, and criticize what the media called lawyer-aided corporate abuse; the tightening grip on American society of corporate law firms who have perfected the art of nullifying, misusing or breaking the law, while pretending to uphold it. Nader and Smith use human stories, accurate statistics, and common sense to provide an alternative set of reforms to open the system, streamline justice, and cut legal costs--all while guaranteeing Americans their day in court.
