Some Very Personal Injury Lawsuits Might Be Pending


In a January 4th blog entry, 'A Natural Disaster Looms', I warned that there might be a problem on Inauguration Day due to the lack of "facilities" for the millions of visitors in Washington that day (See Blog Entry). Now, a law professor, John Banzha of George Washington University, is warning of potential lawsuits over having to "hold it" due to too few available potties (See Full Story).

My guess is that one or more enterprising class-action lawyer or lawyers (probably someone like James Sokolove of mesothelioma fame) is already readying his TV commercials. I can see it all now. A spokesperson will come on saying: "If you or a loved one suffered, or even thought you suffered, from not having access to restroom facilities during the Inauguration, please call our law offices, today!" With possibly 3 million people at that event, a 1/3 cut on all those lawsuit settlements would lift the heart of any personal injury attorney. At the very least, it's a new "Bee-M-er" and a bigger boat or house.

I'm telling ya..this is all gonna hit the fan and it ain't gonna be pretty!
