Fourth Quarter Slowdown Drives Decline in 2012 Securities Class Action Filings
D & O Diary | Jan 02, 2013
Largely as a result of a slowdown in new filings during the fourth quarter, 2012 securities class action lawsuit filings were below the filing levels of recent years and below historical averages.

Trusting Lawyers Loses Lawsuits !

Win with Jurisdictionary!

Below is one of the many emails received from Jurisdictionary .  In this particular email, ask yourself:
  • Will your lawyer do what must be done to win?
  • If you cannot pay your lawyer for all the hours needed to get evidence, prepare for hearings, research the law, draft effective motions, etcetera, who is going to get the job done?
  • Will your lawyer even tell you what could have been done, what should have been done ... once you lose?
  • What if your lawyer gets up on the wrong side of the bed?
  • What if your lawyer is afraid to stand up to the judge and threaten appeal by objecting to the judge's rulings? You'd be amazed how many are afraid of judges!
Whether you have a lawyer or not, do you homework:
  • Know the statutes partucular to your concerns
  • Organize your proof by creating your Law Book

      Trusting Lawyers Loses Lawsuits!

      ( From "How to Win" Step-by-Step Self-Help Course )
      Jurisdictionary

      If you're like most people, you don't trust lawyers.I don't either ... and I've been one since 1986!
      You're smart!
      YOU DARE NOT TRUST LAWYERS!

      You MUST go into every lawsuit doubting the honesty of all the lawyers, including your own!
      Be on guard against the shady ethics of the lawyer on the other side and, if you can afford one, keep a close watch on your own lawyer, too!
      The multitude of lawyer jokes is a clue!

      Question: What's 5,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?
      Answer: A good start!

      There are more lawyer jokes than jokes about all the other professions put together ... so there must be a reason!
      Protect yourself !
      Learn from Jurisdictionary step-by-stepCourt battles are an axe-fight! Knowledge is your axe.

      The other side's lawyer is going to play every dirty trick the judge allows. Count on it. Plan ahead for it. Be prepared to PROTECT YOURSELF!
      But!
      Dare you trust your own lawyer without first learning what it takes to win in court?
      • Will your lawyer do what must be done to win?
      • If you cannot pay your lawyer for all the hours needed to get evidence, prepare for hearings, research the law, draft effective motions, etcetera, who is going to get the job done?
      • Will your lawyer even tell you what could have been done, what should have been done ... once you lose?
      • What if your lawyer gets up on the wrong side of the bed?
      • What if your lawyer is afraid to stand up to the judge and threaten appeal by objecting to the judge's rulings? You'd be amazed how many are afraid of judges!
      Where does this leave YOU?
      Legal malpractice and courtroom corruption are on the rise, yet most people have no idea how to fight back and protect themselves. Most people have no idea what it takes to win ... or how easy it is to learn.

      When your own lawyer (if you have one) bails at the last minute when crunch time comes or wimps out when it's necessary to hold the judge accountable to the rules, if YOU don't know what to do, YOU LOSE!

      Most disturbing of all, if you lose for these reasons YOU CANNOT APPEAL YOUR LOSS!
      The only way to protect yourself is to learn!

      Jurisdictionary shows you what needs to be done. You'll know how pleadings and motions should be drafted. You'll know what must be done to force the other side to produce evidence. You'll know the objections that must be made when the opposition tries to trick you with legalese or smoke-and-mirrors tactics. You'll know how to keep the judge in line!

      Without the easy-to-learn official  Jurisdictionary self-help course, you're at the mercy of the lawyer on the other side, at the mercy of the judge and, if you have a lawyer. you're at the mercy of your very own lawyer!
