As a rule, personal injury lawyers do not do well in favorability polls. They tend to occupy the bottom rungs of the ladder along with “used car salesmen,” “telemarketers,” and “members of Congress.”

But in a recent Public Policy Polling (PPP), personal injury lawyers are tied with Donald Trump in level of public esteem.

I do not know if this is good or bad but the poll did show that Trump is less liked than “middle seats on airplanes” and “public restrooms.”

So, as a personal injury lawyer I am going to look at this result as the glass being half full.

Boy do I hate middle seats on airplanes!
