Hello, I’m Michael Watson and this is the InfluenceWatch Podcast. Few professions have earned as low approval ratings as lawyers—in Gallup polling on the public’s perceptions of professions’ ethics, lawyers are underwater, alongside journalists, business executives, and non-federal politicians. But despite the public’s relatively low opinion of the profession, the trial bar maintains a massive “lawsuit lobby” that supports the vast infrastructure of litigation—and lawyers’ fees—that is a part of American life. Joining me to discuss the lawsuit lobby are my colleague and today’s co-host Sarah Lee and my colleague Robert Stilson, whose four-part series on the “lawsuit lobby” is available at CapitalResearch.org. https://capitalresearch.org/article/the-little-known-lawsuit-lobby/ https://capitalresearch.org/article/the-lawsuit-lobby-part-1/ https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/american-association-for-justice/ https://capitalresearch.org/article/the-lawsuit-lobby-part-2/ https://capitalresearch.org/article/the-lawsuit-lobby-part-3/ https://capitalresearch.org/article/the-lawsuit-lobby-part-4/
