Zengine dokun geç, fakirden sakın da geç - Ne acı bir tabir... ne yazık ki hukuk davalarda böyle işler

"Zengine dokun geç, fakirden sakın da geç." This proverb is a sad part of human nature. Many people often want to "touch" the fortunate and prosperous. They want to rub against the sleeve of the billionaire. Maybe the good fortune will "rub off" on them. But when they see a hungry beggar on a cold sidewalk, they may look the other way. This proverb also holds true when it comes to lawsuits.

How does the proverb hold true with lawsuits? People don't waste time suing someone who has no money. Lawsuits are expensive. They take lots of preparation. They take lots of time. If someone is injured by a person who has nothing, they probably are not going to go to court. What's the point of winning when you're not going to get paid at the end? Many people see big dollar signs "$$$" when they think of lawsuits - but it is not always easy to COLLECT THAT MONEY. It is not like "Para Basiyor" https://youtube.com/shorts/8Oh-6bjiPc0?feature=share

The law has a few solutions to this. In car accidents, there is coverage for when the other side is not insured. This is called Uninsured Motorist coverage. Unfortunately, many people are injured every year by uninsured drivers. Another solution is that sometimes more than one person is responsible for the damages. In those cases, even if ONLY ONE of the wrongdoers is capable of paying the damages, they could be made to pay 100% to the victim. Another solution is obtaining a judgment or lien. Oddly, some people say that even in a big lawsuit recovery, people sometimes blow the money as if they won a lottery. Servet kazanıp perişan oldular! https://youtu.be/oOoGp19c_7A

"Zengine dokun geç" is sort of like the opposite of "Ye Kurkum Ye." There, Nasreddin Hoca wants to look like a man of means to be invited to a dinner party. YE KÜRKÜM YE https://www.communityabroad.com/turkish/post/1000000050113 But when it comes to lawsuits, the wrongdoer may want to "look poor," so people might not waste time in a lawsuit!

Good Luck - yolunuz açık olsun
