Note that he generally represented only the parents of deceased children, and rarely if ever the parents of children living with the condition. Why?
The jury always gives a much bigger award (and thus to Breck Girl a much bigger contingent fee) to the parents of the deceased children, versus the parents of survivors.
Rather perverse, considering the surviving children presumably need life-long care...
I'm sure with Breck Girl in the White House, some real progress will be made on tort reform.
