Article on Supposed "Law Suit Abuse"

I found a great article this morning from a post on LinkedIn. It is written by Steve Phillips, the president of the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association. Below is the link:

Some great points and facts he brings up are that, " injury cases make up just 6 percent of all lawsuits," and "lawsuits rank 71st out of 75 issues small businesses find important, according to a recent survey by the National Federation of Independent Business."
