Reply #133: How else should the working public sue for wrongs? Represent themselves against corporate law firms?

That'll work well. You'd never get the case to trial, and even if you did, you'd lose because you couldn't get anything into evidence, because the other side actually went to law school.

No one can pay up front for litigation unless they are extremely wealthy. If there's no contingency fee basis, you simply wind up with no one who actually needs the money to right a wrong being able to sue at all.
