InJustice in America

WASHINGTON, July 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- On Monday, July 11, InJustice, a film by critically-acclaimed producer, Brian Kelly, taking a shockingly candid under-the-hood look at the American lawsuit machine, will air at 10:00 p.m. on the Reelz Network.

InJustice reveals the history behind lawsuit abuse, showcasing the class action suit, which was born from the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and then twisted into the money-making venture it is today. InJustice shows in detail how a small group of trial attorneys skillfully manipulated legal rules, procedures, and even their own clients to create an international enterprise that now rivals the scope and profits of many Fortune 500 corporations.

In InJustice, award-winning producer Brian Kelly highlights the abuses of opportunistic trial lawyers and reveals how their actions affect the court system, the legal profession, and the victims involved in lawsuits.

"The credibility of the American legal system, and the system itself, is under attack," said Kelly. "Not from outside influences, but from a cancerous enterprise within. InJustice profiles this phenomenon, and shows why record numbers of Americans have lost confidence in their legal system."

InJustice takes viewers on an journey through the dark corridors of lawsuit scams and abuses, including asbestos and silicosis litigation, the Fen-Phen diet scandal, the mega-million dollar tobacco settlements, Wall Street power grabs, and shakedown operations in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

In this original expose, Kelly and Single Malt Media examine the scope and magnitude of lawsuit abuse, its personal and societal costs, and the billions in profits it leverages -- often without cases ever going to trial.  InJustice highlights the growing phenomenon of unscrupulous plaintiffs, who were never injured by an accident or a faulty product, stealing resources from those who have been legitimately hurt or damaged.

"InJustice is told by lawyers who in their own words to explain what is wrong with America's lawsuit system and who is to blame," said Kelly, who has won numerous awards for his television productions.
