Gator...The economic and legal condition of America's contemporary tort system has come under increasing criticism for being far too costly and incapable of administering fair and prompt awards. A recent actuarial study by Tillinghast-Towers Perrin indicates that tort costs rose from $67 billion in 1984 to $152 billion in 1994, an increase of 125 percent. Increased litigation costs have burdened American families and businesses with higher auto insurance premiums, reduced incentives for auto safety features, and contributed to higher medical costs. In addition, plaintiffs are often forced to accept a 33 percent toll just to have access to the current American tort system.
The economic effects of such a huge tort burden on the American economy are hard to measure directly, but are nonetheless significant. Individuals suffer from the high price of insurance and the increased cost of goods and services. Businesses are hurt by the higher prices they must charge to pay their insurance costs. The overall economy also suffers when productivity and growth are slowed by excessive litigation, which discourages risk-taking and slows the introduction of new products and technologies.
University of Virginia law professor Jeffrey O'Connell and Michael Horowitz of the Hudson Institute have assembled a tort reform proposal that would eliminate these perverse incentives and result in tremendous economic savings for all Americans.
The "auto-choice" reform would make available $40 billion in savings on auto insurance premiums. Individuals could save $31.7 billion and businesses could save $8.3 billion in 1996 premiums. For the typical car insurance premium, this would translate into average savings of $221. In high insurance states, such as New Jersey, the savings would average $395 per premium.
Low-income drivers would particularly benefit, since the auto-choice reform is highly progressive. While the average driver would save 28.6 percent, low-income drivers would save 44.9 percent on their premiums. Moreover, the savings from auto-choice would be enough to offset 61.7 percent of the average tax burden of the poorest fifth of American families.
The contingency fee reform (co-authored by Professor Lester Brickman of the Cardozo Law School) would significantly reduce the total estimated cost of attorney fees of $45 billion each year. Payments to plaintiffs attorneys would reflect the value they add to their client's settlement.
The Moore-Gephardt reform would also provide substantial savings in health care costs, through the elimination of the collateral source rule and by reducing inflated claims of medical damages. Moreover, the Moore-Gephardt reform would reduce the occurrence and size of "pain and suffering" damage awards.
