AIG speaks out on Tort Reform

AIG mouthpiece Tiger Joyce, president of the American Tort Reform Association (ATRA) which is funded by AIG and the other robber barons in the insurance industry, has written the latest misleading article on the state of affairs in their attempt to remove the rights of individuals to recover for their injuries (maybe they need more money for another Resort Hideaway where they can badmouth ordinary citizens).

In his article Joyce laments needed changes in the law to help consumers, such as  an attempt to improve “Whistleblower” laws so illegal and unethical behavior can be properly punished. ATRA cares nothing about the consumer interest – but worries only about AIG’s profits (if they ever have any again).

He also complains about expanding Consumer Protection laws. Evidently the bailout money was not enough – Joyce wants us to keep giving to AIG through weak consumer protection laws. How out of touch can you be?
Joyce’s screed continues with complaints about statutes of limitations and statutes of repose – maybe he’s afraid that the insurance industry misdeeds will linger too long into the future, when more evidence may become available.

I am proud to be a consumer lawyer who helps individuals stand up to the insurance industry and their underhanded tactics.
