"Plaintiffs' lawyers like to say that you need the holy trinity to beat the big guys: brains, guts, and money. There would be plenty of each in both camps when the trial got underway, and it would be a tense engagement."Mark Lanier knew he was facing an opponent willing to break every rule in the book, and each part of his case had to go just right for him to win. He had done it twice before. Could he do it again?This is the true story of a courtroom showdown between the man many consider the best trial lawyer of his generation and one of the nation's richest and most respected corporations.Author Snigdha Prakash is embedded with the plaintiffs' team for the seven-week trial, and takes us into the trenches of the tough---and dirty---battle between corporate interests and the individual that plays out in the courts. Part corporate expose and part legal thriller, All the Justice Money Can Buy is a gripping---and topical---read for our scandal-plagued times.
