****************************************************************************
I don’t know how these “loser pays” laws are structured but I hope that the losing attorneys have to participate in paying for the defendant’s attorney fees or perhaps pay them all. If the “contingency” fee the plaintiffs’ attorney would have paid their attorneys had they prevailed was 35%, then those attorneys should bear at least 35% of the loser pays costs. Better yet, make the attorneys pay 100% of those “loser pays” costs. That would cut down on these wasteful, frivolous lawsuits.
