The New York Times has run an article on Mississippi attorney Richard Scruggs, is one of the lead attorneys in the Katrina homeowners’ litigation in Mississippi. It’s an interesting article, and really good PR for a lawyer who knows how to play the PR game. The story discusses how Scruggs made his “first fortune” in asbestos litigation, his “second fortune” in tobacco litigation, took on the health care industry, and is now taking on the insurance industry. It’s a good read, although lacking in any real substance or in-depth discussion of the legal issues involved in paying the Katrina claims.
