The legal rights of Americans are threatened as never before. In No Contest, Ralph Nader and Wesley J.

Nader and Smith document how corporate lawyers
File baseless lawsuits
Use court secrecy to their unfair advantage
Engage in billing fraud
Nader and Smith sound the warning that this system-wide abuse is eroding our basic legal rights, and propose a positive, commonsense vision of what should be done to reverse the corporate-inspired corruption of civil justice. Timely, incisive, and highly readable, this is a book for all citizens who believe that prompt access to justice is the backbone of democracy, and a precious right to be reclaimed.
