Stop the Madness: Don't Settle Unavoidable Fall Cases

All too often we settle fall cases simply to avoid the cost of defense. This may save money in the short term, but it costs significantly more in the long term. When there has been no breach of duty of the standard of care, why do we throw money at it just to clear the case? Doing so only breeds more suits. It's time to throttle frivolous fall cases, to make plaintiffs work, and to resist the temptation to get out cheaply even when the case is eminently winnable.
