So what is Vioxx, and          why is there a lawsuit? Vioxx is used to treat arthritis and the pain          symptoms it causes. There is a lawsuit against it's maker, Merck, because          it has been shown to cause an increase of heart attacks, blood clots,          and strokes. So why is this such a high-priced keyword? Well, like with          the mesothelioma/asbestos lawsuits,          lawyers want to file class-action suits that attract huge verdicts in          their favor, netting them a nice cut. More clients make for a bigger class-action          suit, which means more money for them. It may cost them $200 to get a          new client for their class-action suit, but having that client may increase          the verdict by $1 million, which may mean $100,000 or more in their pockets.          The lawyers rule the world, we just live here.
