I'm still not sure why the US is paying for the lasting effects of someone else's attack on the country.
sigh
this is why I think we should go back to the cave man era. At least when someones extremely greedy, they would get gang raped and killed. And no more money to deal with, or major assholes, either, no more over population good times
[QUOTE=RIPBILLYMAYS;31461289]This is probably a regional thing but I'm assuming that cheque is how you spell check in Austrailian English. Also he should rob a bank for $1 to get free medicare like that one guy.[/QUOTE] That guy also had to go to prison though, if I recall correctly.
I laughed for some reason.. Oh god I'm a bad person. They are taking forever to hand the money out those greedy fucks. :911:

[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;31462785]The only people who win lawsuits are the lawyers.

And my classmates wondered why I was failing law studies. Exactly this reason!
Fucking lawyers, scum of the earth. :argh:
Holy bureaucracies, Batman.

[QUOTE=Mister Cool;31461410]$30,000 in debt with 2 kids, and fucking throat cancer to top it off. And I bet those lawyers are laughing in their Lincolns with their silk ties throwing his deserved cash in the air.[/QUOTE] It's not their fault. His original claim failed to include throat cancer, and $10,000 is such an absurdly low figure, it's basically a giant 'fuck-you' to the man. Shouldn't have taken the settlement. [editline]1st August 2011[/editline] Obviously got conned by his friend though, he should have gone with a 'no-win, no-fee' mob.
[QUOTE=Contag;31464303]Obviously got conned by his friend though, he should have gone with a 'no-win, no-fee' mob.[/QUOTE] Instead he went with a 'no-win, pay us $100,000'
Bureaucracy at its finest. :rolleyes:
Some one needs to step up to these greedy douchebags , but who could be the right person to do such , the world may never know.

I heard New York has more lawyers than people.
Good to know that we live in a country where the government only spends money on things that really matter like killing brown people, and not on useless shit like healthcare for 9/11 rescue workers.
Now that is some sad shit right there, really fucking come on. This guy worked in the gaddamn dvris for eight dollars an hour and now this. He does deserve more.
[QUOTE=-n3o-;31461343]Yes that's correct. that's how we spell cheque here in Australia we also spell jail as gaol and ass is arse.[/QUOTE] In England, they spell "jail" as "Australia"
It seems like the man had a pretty good case against Merrill Lynch, why would they settle for only $10000?
[QUOTE=Ridge;31462960]I'm still not sure why the US is paying for the lasting effects of someone else's attack on the country.[/QUOTE] That's just it, they're not :downs:
[QUOTE=Zareox7;31468749]It seems like the man had a pretty good case against Merrill Lynch, why would they settle for only $10000?[/QUOTE] [quote]His claim cited chronic rhinosinusitis and sleep disorders.[/quote] So it's not nearly as bad as throat cancer, it still seems like a 'fuck you dickhead' offer. Taking advantage of the fact that he was in debt and wasn't able to fight a long and protracted legal battle, but needed money to merely survive until the next week.

He should of gone with a large well known reputable lawyer firm rather than some local twats trying to scam money.
