The families of two high school students who died in the tragic Parkland shooting earlier this year are pushing to sue the maker of the gun used in the massacre, accusing manufacturers of being in a “protected class.”
Florida school shooting victims’ parents move to sue gun maker, seller of firearm used in Parkland massacre.
I was going to rant once again on the stupidity that lawyers seem to keep repeating by convincing parents that they will go far with these lawsuits only to leave the hanging with the bills when they lose.
But I caught the name if the lawyer representing the parents: Julie Braman Kane. A quick check in the internet reveals she is a Personal Injury Lawyer located in Coral Gables (where all the Law Firms seem to congregate in Miami. No Mos Eisley jokes, please) and working with a very successful firm, but also she was till last year the president of the American Association of Justice, formerly the Association of Trial Lawyers of America or in plain English the lawyers that unkind people would refer to as “ambulance chasers.” They are a lobby group opposed to tort reform and according to the WaPo “ a trial lawyers group that serves as one of the Democratic Party’s most influential political allies”
Having a penthouse in Alhambra Circle in Coral Gables is not a small monetary feat, having the name of the firm displayed in the building does not come cheap. These are heavy political and financial hitters that will not charge cheap and they are not going after McDonalds of Big Tobacco and they know it so…
Who is paying the bill?
