There are about 1.5 million lawyers in the country.
California is considered a very litigious state. Everyone seems to have a lawyer, know a lawyer, or have one in the family. Aren’t there just too many lawyers, lawsuits and laws?There are about 1.5 million lawyers in the country,and yes, that is a lot. As to California, it has 29 code books , which also is a lot. Courts here continue to be very busy and often have backlogs .
Still, I remain pro-lawyer because attorneys can accomplish just outcomes. Also, laws themselves are needed to keep order and provide for a level of predictability. Thus, it seems to me that until there is a change in the way people go about things, we will continue, for the foreseeable future anyway, with large numbers of lawyers, lawsuits and laws. In part, this is because the right to redress is so strongly protected in our country.
That said, there are laws that seek to hinder and create a disincentive for certain lawsuits. Sanctions and other remedies are available if a matter is deemed frivolous or in bad faith. Elected officials often talk about taking steps to cut down on regulations. Hence, the pendulum has swung at least a bit toward calming the waters.
