In an op-ed in the New York Daily News (12/5), New York State Bar Association President Michael Getnick wrote, "Lawyers and lawsuits have been attacked politically for years, but in reality, civil lawsuits shine a spotlight on wrongdoing, call the offenders to account, deter future misbehavior and provide justice for people who have been hurt. Repeated studies have shown that approximately 100,000 people die each year due to medical malpractice in our nation's hospitals." Getnick argues, "Anyone who wants to reduce the number of lawsuits should focus on reducing the type of negligent behavior that harms people and causes them to sue".
