Courts and Lawyers I Believe Term Paper

Firstly, a legal representative provides professional services, for which he or she is rewarded. A favorable outcome should then also carry with it extra rewards. Furthermore, a contingency fee can provide an incentive for legal representatives to give their best work and increase the likelihood of a favorable outcome.

5) the only reform of the legal process for tort actions that I would suggest is a more thorough investigation of the process before bringing the matter to trial. Furthermore, stricter measures should be implemented against official and federal entities in order to prevent and discourage an abuse of the process.Matters such as false evidence and favoring certain parties should be more strictly monitored by independent parties. Furthermore, money and power should play no role in the positions of the parties involved in the action. If wrongful death occurs, for example, the responsible party should be judged accordingly.
