But isn’t it easy to win money in a lawsuit by forcing the other side (usually an insurance company) to settle? But what about that McDonald’s coffee case? WHY SHOULD I CARE?

Again, all we have are words. In fact, repeated requests in the past from this newspaper for proof have never and we repeat, never been met with any kind of verifiable evidence. Sounds fishy to me.
