Erin Brokovich's case against PG&E & Hinkley(2), or Jan Schlittchmanns case vs WR Grace and Beatrice Foods
Are these exceptions? I wonder how many individuals (without money) have taken on mega corporations only to have their lives destroyed by the mega corps (legally)?
I am just speculating here, but my guess is that everyone knows about cases like Brokovich vs PG&E because the little guy won and because of the size of the settlement (and the movie helps too). For every case that small guys win, there must be many many more cases that they lose, even though they are on the right?
