From Publishers Weekly:
MONEY is what plaintiffs and lawyers seek in bringing suits, according to this informative and appalling expose of the legal profession by freelance writer Thomas and trial attorney Grutman, who counts such celebrities as Jerry Falwell and Bob Guccione among his clients. Entertaining courtroom dramas which should delight sensational-trial buffs illustrate the authors' assertion of the questionable practices lawyers employ within an overloaded and often corrupt court system to defend for exorbitant fees individuals, unions, and corporate and government clients. To that end, contend the authors, law schools have become "factories for the production of legal entrepreneurs."

From Library Journal:
With the help of professional writer Thomas, Grutman, a lawyer with 35 years experience, investigates the legal profession--the lawyers, the judges, and the network of services that keeps them supplied with customers. He uses famous cases as examples of legal battles involving libel, personal injury, and malpractice. After an honest examination of private law firms, Grutman advises on lawyer selection: trust your instinct, your wallet, and the record. National advertising, with a five-city author tour, may create demand in public libraries.
