That story about the firefighter makes my blood boil!😤

Kudos to the lawyer who punched the dad who confessed to fiddling his own daughter

My favorite lawsuit ever is an Indian man who sued his parents for "giving birth to him without his consent." He did it as a protest against irresponsible parenthood, and apparently he and his parents are still on good terms.

Ok the firefighter one is crazy. I hope this guy who sued him will nerver feel happiness.

I hope the child that was saved by that firefighter lives with someone who cares more about them than money cause that’s horrific. That firefighter deserved an award.

As I once heard a lawyer say, “You can sue anyone for anything. The real questions is, can you win?”

The firefighter who lost his license for saving the kid should have a gofundme started. I hope that father gets his just desserts for that mess!!

I personally know physicians who say they would absolutely not stop to help if they passed by an accident. They've heard too many horror stories of doctors who were sued for helping injured people on the side of the road. Others say that they would help as best they could until EMS arrived, but then leave immediately making sure not to give their name to anyone. And they consider even that risky.

I want to make a point. The beer lawsuit has more to it. The man sued because it might cause the listed problems in his children. It might cause them to expect to have those things and cause them to become alcoholics.

Apparently the reason why suing a rescuer is so common is that insurance companies won't pay out unless there is a litigation case against someone and the rescuer tend to be the easiest target compared to a large corporation or the state

I got into an accident last year after a woman rushing home ran a red light and I hit her. My car was DESTROYED and she just got spun around. I was also 2 months pregnant at the time. This lady got tickets for not having a seatbelt on, running a red light, no license, no car insurance, and no registration. She was also found at fault for the accident and my insurance found me not at fault. Im now being sued for running a red light and she wants $25,000+. Bruh.

I know someone named Taylor that had a idiot try and sue them for child support. At the time SHE was 9, an only child, and a process server came to her parents house ro server her. Her father, an army Staff Sergeant, was less than amused by this.

😮😮A woman got a $1,000 settlement for a twisted ankle. (It was cheaper than going to court). She was wearing very high heels on a gravel park lot out in the country.

Imagine having to ask for consent to save someone's child.. giving or having consent shouldn't be a concern if it involves saving someones life

A law firm rejected my mom's case because it didn't fit their criteria, or something. My mom wanted to sue a nursing home/hospital because they injected something into her mother while she was already dealing with breast cancer and brain surgery, this causing her to die. Edit: I don't know why I didn't clarify this, but the reason my grandma needed brain surgery was because in the nursing home she fell down in her room and busted her head. Despite pressing the alert button for help, the nurses didn't arrive until minutes later. My grandma had blood gushing in her brain, and so doctors had to remove a piece of her skull to drain out the blood. She survived the surgery but months after the doctors never repaired the hole in her skull and that would prevent her from continuing her chemotherapy due to the risks. Then, without telling my mother first, the doctors gave her that injection. Which in my opinion, just because my grandma agreed to get it doesn't mean you didn't need to alert a trusted family member for a second opinion, because (A. She was just recovering from brain surgery so her brain was still fuzzy. And B. My grandma was known to make bad decisions such as walking around without her cane, or cleaning when she isn't in good condition to stand up for hours on end. In her defense though, back then in her youth doctors actually wanted to help their patients, so of course she would trust the doctor even if said doctor would inject snake oil into her body. She could've possibly made it through if those doctors fixed her skull sooner; or if those nurses got to her room sooner; or even if she never got that shot.

That first one. I’m sorry. What? The sons mad that there were restrictions from entering the area where his parents died? I expected him to sue because they didn’t prevent the parents from getting to the area. Not for the fact that there were preventions in the first place.

In France we have a law, "failure to provide aid to an endangered person", if you do nothing, you can get in trouble. Supposedly.

Yes, its a thing, its why as an EMT i have to spend an hour doing paperwork after every call. Happy Happy Sue Goodmans out there making my job heck

Story with the lawyer that got disbarred for punching pedo dad makes me wish there was a rule that allows them to do so without cosiquence. Don't know how to spell that word, sorry

Anyone remember when Disney tried to copyright Cinco Dé Mayo? 💀

Please Not many of those- rescuer lawsuits aren't file by the person they saved. The hurt person claims on their insurance for the medical bill. Insurance company sues anyone they can in the name of the injured persons name to get the money back. That insurance companies can file as many nuisance suits as they want and no one can tell because its done in the clients name is a huge problem.

For the blind one. it depends on what type of blindness he has. He may have problems seeing things within 5 feet but no problem with longer distances. So he might be able to go "Yup. Red building. Flight of stairs" and then get close and then have to tap to find out where those stairs were.

Not a lawyer but my sister's ex girlfriend posted a video with her new girlfriend(just a travel thing) on twitter and my sister shared it on faceook, my sister's ex is suing my sister for "using her image without consent"

my crazy story is from my mom a lawyer.There was a women who sued my moms client because he was volunteering at a horse riding place.he was brushing the horse and accident occured at the riding section.

Lifeguard one: If you live in the United States, don't be afraid to try to save someone's life for fear of being sued. The US has Good Samaritan laws that protect people who make good faith efforts to save the lives of other people from litigation, even if the attempt causes harm. For example, if you come across an unconscious person and perform CPR on that person, you are likely to break that person's ribs. That's just what happens when CPR is performed correctly. These laws came into place after a person was sued for saving a life, and then people stopped trying to help distressed people for fear of being sued.

The Good Samaritan laws are indeed an American thing and the law system here is screwed real bad

That lifeguard story is the exact reason why if your kids in trouble you better save them I’m saving the drowning puppy because the puppies owners aren’t gonna fucking sue me

#7: only in US. In the civilised part of the world, NO-ONE gets sued for trying to save a life. This one of many reasons I would never move, or even visit, the US.

16:15 actually makes perfect sense, and I'm 99% sure the story is mistold. They didn't sue the dead guy's family, they sued his estate. Which is a perfectly normal thing to do if someone does something stupid, dies, and leaves you on the hook for any damages from his decision. You sue their estate/insurance. Definitely isn't fun being that guy's relatives, but they gotta remember, the person that got their car hit by bits of dead idiot, didn't ask for it either!

Yes its an American thing. And sadly some the states with good Samaritan laws don't have strong enough laws. As much of a dumpster fire my state is politically at times we do have good laws along with Duty to rescue. But the other unfunny party about this also happens in Europe and Asia too. The bystander effect is strong.

My hubby and I got rear-ended in Atlanta Georgia, line of traffic stopped, we stopped, car behind did not stop. Her car was totaled, we drove our truck home (10 hours away). Couple of days later I start getting calls from attorneys wanting us to sue the woman that hit us....

Just wanna say - that Chuck E. Cheese one is not dumb but legitimate. Sure, you could talk about the father probably should have kept a closer eye on the kid, but a compartment where a person could have their fingers cut off was left open in a restaurant that caters mainly to children. Not securing hazardous compartments like that which you know children are going to be around, and a kid getting injured as a result, is a pretty open and shut case of negligence to me. It's not the legal responsibility of parents to guard against the negligence of employees. Now - if the tech had actually secured the compartment properly, and the kid had to pry it open and basically break in in order to get hurt, THEN the lawsuit would be stupid.

"Parts of this man went flying into kingdom come and landed on some lady's windshield" 😂

In some cases your life insurance company will require you to sue before they pay out for a claim. The insurance company does not like to pay out so will arm twist their clients into suing whomever they can apportion blame to re-coup their loss.

We need a frivilous lawsuit tv show about the content of this video

Aren’t most lawsuits stupid anyway, though?

Stories like these scare the shit out of me.

“Did these sound like the actions of a man, who had ‘All He Could Eat’!?”

ya'll remember that scene from the Incredibles Bob getting sued by the guy he saved from jumping off a building and that train car of people from the blown up tracks that movie wasn't exaggerating and it is the reason why people are reluctant to go out of their way to save someone and Good Samaritan Laws exist now

NTA (though do have a cousin who is but he has nothing to do with story) but my dad was once sued in the early 90s. He was even taken to the highest court....forgot why. but he counter sued and won

The Good Samaritan law story reminds me of Seinfelds finale and the ridiculous trial in it.

Story #1 - ...Wait, _shouldn't_ have? I ... That son is a moron

If you build on your neighbor's property and your first call to action isn't to tear up or buy. You are the problem.

Hello there until very recently. I was a case consultant for the Morgan and Morgan law firm. I am not an attorney, but I was trained to gather the relevant information from people to put into their case files. Some of the dumb reasons people have called include but are not limited to a Walmart employee, bumping his shoulder intentionally so now his shoulder was numb. The woman who called because she ran her car through her garage door after she admitted to accidentally hitting the gas instead of the brake pedal, the woman who called him because she broke her nose by grabbing the middle cannon. The stack of cans in the top part of the stack fell on her, the gentleman who tripped over his own underwear at a hospital and hit his face on the floor. Someone get hit in the face with a pie and apparently severed there’s mine from their skull people trying to start lawsuits from 10 years ago. It’s always fun as well there’s more but you get the idea.

Good Samaritan law. I've heard that in some US states it's not worth the paper ut's written on. But it's much worse in some Muslim countries. If you are female and get injured or collapse for any reason outside, you better hope your husband or father are with you, because everyone will just step over you, as they daren't touch an u known female.

I know a bit about the good Samaritan thing. You have to understand that the US has this weird problem with precedents being able to overrule the intent of laws if someone can justify that the meaning was unclear. This means in the case of things like good Samaritan laws since they rely on a certain degree of common sense, and subjective reasoning, they can oftentimes be overruled in certain cases to allow someone to sue or take action and then those precedents can be used to cause problems later, a sort of "exception based on an exception" thing. To explain it, in the US our Good Samaritan laws basically just cover someone intervening to save another person. This can be acting to protect a victim of violence, or going to rescue them in some other way. A lot of this can go back to things like the case of Kitty Genevieve who was stabbed to death in the open and no one would stop the attacker as they were afraid of legal repercussions. If you ever read "Watchmen", Rorscarch's mask was actually supposed to be made of a piece of her dress which was a statement in of itself, and literally why he does what he does. He was in part acting based on a real incident that also happened in his comic book world. The thing is though that in practice since the laws are subjective someone who say gets the crap beaten out of them while assaulting someone else can oftentimes use the subjective nature of the laws to claim that the force used was disproportionate or something. Say if you beat up a guy mugging a lady with a knife in an alleyway and broke all four of his limbs. That guy could claim you were basically using his admitted crime as an excuse to torture him. Granted it's not typically something like that, but he will make a similar kind of argument, and oftentimes it comes down to what the jury thinks, especially if he's in civil court. Let's say the guy is black, and your white, and he was admittedly attacking a white woman to rape her at knife point, he admits that, but then claims you used that as an excuse to torture him and are effectively not a good samaritan but a racist vigilante. If the jury are black people from a certain sort of neighborhood, you can sort of see how those precedents can happen. Even if you just hurt the guy badly by accident while you were fighting, he can claim otherwise. if you say acted in understandable anger and say literally shoved his own knife up his ass, causing severe rectal trauma, he could possibly sue you for his ass reconstruction surgery. Kind of justifies why super heroes wear masks, doesn't it? On a medical front, and with things like life guards, the person can argue that even if you were acting in good faith you were not qualified to render assistance, so you did damage by botching it. The argument being that if you had helped by say finding someone more qualified, as opposed to trying to be a hero, they would not have been injured. this kind of issue is the root of a lot of complaints. To use the lifeguard example, let's say the little girl was drowning at a private beach club, and the lifeguards are all also basically cabana boys who are hired mostly on their looks. The little girl who was put down too roughly and say has to have her back looked at has a mother who questions "what kind of qualifications did you have to do that?", and will say draw on her great body of knowledge from "Baywatch" re-runs to realize that many lifeguards are actually pretty heavily trained, and the part timer probably isn't. It is a jerkish thing to do, but understand in many cases the motivations for stuff like this are oftentimes expensive medical bills they are looking for a way to deal with. Also understand in many cases like that specifically they are less going after the lifeguard, than the employer, the Cabana boy probably can't pay anything, but the club can. That is one side effect of our medical system. That said I will point out that in the medical cases at least there is an easy way to deal with the problem, as the accusation is generally going to be you injured someone trying to be a hero/glory hound. You just say you didn't think you had time and no one else around seemed to be better able to handle it. Other countries do tend to be more reasonable about many things the US is bad on, but likely have their problems in other areas. Foreigners tend to not realize that one reason why Americans tend to be sue crazy is that in the US there can be a lack of certain kinds of support, and a lack of assumed responsibility some other countries take for granted. See a lot of Americans in other countries that scream about law suits and get "WTF" reactions, are oftentimes doing it because they assume if they don't, certain things they need won't happen, when those things are going to be taken care of automatically.

im glad they saved te baby but why do they always get fired for saving a life or helping the copany

Imagine getting a lawsuit for abuse cause you kicked a rock

Do you happen to know the background footage game? It looks fun and I wanna give it a go.

That blind guy one has happened more than once.😂 You'd be surprised how many legally blind llegal drivers there probably are.

11 and many others before it in the video...those just sound like extortion. Not even with extra steps. Just extortion. Straight up.

These channels should put the name of the background game int the description.

Story 17. This is literally like China, suing people for helping them. People 🤦

good samaratin laws exist in the uk but its like if they do not consent to help whilst they are conscious you can't help them then when they are unconscious you can help them

What game are you playing In the background? I love foxes!

18:25 yeah perfectly normal. People shouldn’t take that kind of insured lawsuit so personally. I have had someone injured in my home, their well being was important to me- I begged them to let me take them to get checked out. They took a bad blow to the head that was 100% my fault for leaving some cardboard laying on a slippery floor and very accidentally but very much stupidly and very much because of my laziness creating the situation that sent them ass over tea kettle. They were more worried about me. I have nothing to take. If a pickup with a quarter million miles on it and a broken Darth Vader action figure are gonna make a difference I suppose I’ll just have to hand em over, but the fact is that a bunch of investors who have no idea how messy my apartment can get agreed to be on the hook for stuff like this as long as I give them 16 bucks a month, and it’s gotta be the single best deal I’ve ever made. Thankfully my friend was ok without medical care and there was no claim- probably saved me a free phone calls and a ten buck a month premium increase- nice of my friend to tough it out for so little reason.

whats that fox game in the backgound

Hold up, ive been deployed for 6 months. Who tf is reading now?

14:20 disbarred for that but the ones who make false claims and tell their client to lie are hard to nail? What’s this world come to?

What’s the game in the background? I wanna play it

What's the game in the background?

The United States needs to implement those laws where - if you see someone in danger, you have to try and help. It would stop alot of these stupid fucking lawsuits from people just bleeding the system.

17:07 how do pulleys sever someone's finger. I just up and down or side to side. The only way I can see this happening is if the rope wrapped around the girl's finger and was then pulled tight. Otherwise, I don't know how it would have happened.

What's the name of the game in the background? Looks interesting.

11:15. yes there is client attourny privelage. but even that has statue to limatations id think. the dmv should of been informed because he is a danger to himself and others.

...the "Australian accent" was probably not necessary.

What is the game in the background

That first case isn't a dumb case . . .

Good Samaritan laws aren't an American thing, nor is exploiting the lack of them or loop holes in weak ones. Typically when a case like that does occur, it's injury related. Like somebody passed out and you did chest compressions to keep them alive till paramedics arrived. Turns out you broke their ribs while doing it, so they sue you for damages. Something like that. Good Samaritan laws are intended to prevent something like that from happening. Without them, you can be sued for that and due to precedent, if you are found liable, than it's easier for future cases to result in the same verdict. There's a particularly infamous example of that happening in China and the consequences of it as recently as the mid 2000's.

What's the background game?

Story 22b, jeez! Glad you didn't take the case

The first one the only reason why did that is couldn't handle the loss

"Bied" 💀

Story #22 - All the wtfs

Hey there 👋🏽

As former paramedic I can say that we can get sued for abuste BS TLDR version EMT student disturbed possible homoside scene

Was the guy who sued his parents named Sue?

What's the name of the game in the background?

What game is this

13:26 I mean. I’m not the biggest fan of the name my parents gave me either but I would never think of it as emotional abuse. Uncreative considered half my name is my month of birth but not abuse.

where is the original va?

What is the name of the background game

what game is this ?

Hi

Here before "one hour" ⬇

Aunt As mother didnt have permission to do anything. WOW. This is the main reason I call BULLSHIT

Good Samaritan law or not I'm not helping anyone because I can't afford a lawyer to defend my self. If you get hurt that's your own damn problem.

After hearing these moronic of stories they should add a another one am I the dimwit

2t

Yes, suing people for saving you is totally an american thing to do. We cant afford the air we breathe so suing people is usually how people try to get extra cash.
