Protecting Texas Businesses from Unfair Litigation

Today, every Texas industry is facing the threat of abusive lawsuits. Runaway lawsuits are placing Texas businesses of all sizes, across all sectors in an extremely tenuous position. Texas job creators are being forced to raise prices, lay off employees or close their doors – ultimately harming the Texans these businesses serve every day. The abuse must stop.

LSEA Urges Texas Lawmakers to Pass SB 30

Meaningful reforms in SB 30 by Sen. Charles Schwertner will help restore transparency and fairness to Texas’s courts. Specifically, SB 30 includes reforms that will encourage doctors to treat accident victims and stop the manipulation and inflation of medical damages.

These are the essential principles in SB 30 – which will help ensure employers can continue to create jobs and safely provide the goods and services that are essential to Texas families: (1) require agreements between plaintiff’s lawyers and healthcare providers to be disclosed and (2) if the medical bills in a personal injury case are unpaid, govern the evidence of medical damages so that juries aren’t misled and personal injury patients aren’t billed at inflated rates compared to those who aren’t involved in lawsuits.
