Hang on. You've gone from "well, -I- have seen no evidence, and juries are just finding J&J guilty, regardless of evidence" to now your assumption that evidence doesn't exist and that this issue "probably isn't even real".
Law firms make their money on judgments.
I have little concern for their ability to do so.
But it's a pretty big risk for a law firm to take on a $100B/year company with their legal backing with no evidence of a problem that "probably isn't even real", and standing up against their expert testimony and thinking "oh yeah, we got this, payday time".
