One small American vintner, after winning a product liability case, was told by the opposing lawyers that if it didn't pay the plaintiff's legal bills - almost $500,000 - the ruling would be appealed. Faced with a ruinous battle, it capitulated.Among other costs are huge amounts of management time and damaged corporate reputations. In some cases bankruptcy looms, with the subsequent social costs of plant closures, layoffs and unpaid creditors. Lloyd's, the London insurance market, is in deep financial trouble partly because of payments to people critically injured by asbestos.

So do the claims of thalidomide victims, born with severe deformities after their mothers took the drug to treat morning sickness.Others have become dinner-table anecdotes - true urban legends - such as the one about Stella Liebeck, the 81-year-old woman in New Mexico who won pounds 2m from McDonald's after she spilled a cup of coffee in her lap while driving away from one of its restaurants On appeal the award was cut to pounds 320,000. Another woman claimed to have found a foreign object in a doughnut, and when a laboratory said it could find nothing wrong, she sued it for throwing away the sample before doing enough tests.Measuring the number of frivolous cases is difficult Some legitimate ones fail for lack of evidence. Others that are unfounded succeed through an emotional appeal to the jury. Trial results seem to indicate either that fewer cases have merit, or that juries are becoming more discerning. From1960 to 1989 plaintiffs won about 60 per cent of the cases that went to court. Since then the figure has fallen to 40 per cent.The problem with the US legal system is three-fold. First, product liability cases are dealt with by juries, which tend to identify and sympathise with victims rather than the large "money-grabbing" companies.
This encourages them to rule in the plaintiff's favour, and to make big awards for compensation.Secondly, they have the power to levy virtually unlimited punitive damages, often running far higher than the compensatory awards. Where several customers file separate claims rather than a class-action suit, the company can end up being punished several times over.Finally, there is the contingency fee system of paying lawyers. Instead of billing for time spent working on a case, litigation lawyers agree to take a percentage of the award if they win. Although this opens up the field to victims who otherwise could not afford to sue, it also encourages lawyers to build cases and then go looking for clients.The contingency fee system also helps to inflate the awards. Juries know that between a quarter and a half of the amount they order the defendant to pay will end up in the pockets of the plaintiff's lawyers, so they increase the awards to compensate.In Britain, things are different. Such actions are decided by a judge alone and only in exceptional cases, such as libel, is a jury involved There are no punitive damages, only compensatory ones.

The tangles he is now getting into in his efforts to reform employee share schemes and Capital Gains Tax (CGT) perhaps show the limits to this approach (see page 1). Both reforms face pressures often at odds with each other: flexibility, cost, and Inland Revenue paranoia.
Mr Brown wants share schemes to embrace many types and sizes of business. Hence the three "modules" in the scheme: free shares, partnership shares and matching shares You can have eight combinations of these schemes Great for flexibility.
But the more complicated a scheme becomes, the more it costs to administer. Small businesses will never take on a scheme they fear will be more expensive than the old one.Much the same goes for CGT. The more the Chancellor tries to target tax relief at high growth, hi-tech companies, the more mind-bogglingly complex the system becomes - and all the more expensive for the company involved.The Inland Revenue views any reform to CGT with deep suspicion. It believes any reliefs given to CGT payers will tempt people to manipulate their affairs to present as much of their income as possible as a capital gain. This would enable the naughty taxpayer to escape their due burden of tax.There are two reasons why the taxman should be more relaxed.
For a start, the Revenue is no beginner at sniffing out tax evasion. Most of the tax experts I spoke to this week believe the Revenue is more than equal to the task of deciding when income is dressed as capital gain.Secondly, we have already seen how cutting taxes does not always mean a fall in tax take - quite the reverse. It often means people will be more forthcoming about their affairs. This is supported by the American experience, where they reacted to the stagflation of the Seventies by cutting CGT to just 20 per cent across the board.Mr Brown and his advisers believe this low rate of CGT is one of the main reasons for the flowering of high-growth, high-tech companies through the US. People know they can keep the fruits of their labours, so entrepreneurs invest, confident that they will be rewarded for taking risks. Translating this into UK tax reform is another matter, as Mr Brown is now finding out.So what does all this mean for you? If you're an employee who prefers shares to an annual cash bonus, and you don't mind keeping the shares for five years, it's good news. The flip side is you will no longer be able to sell your bonus shares until three years are up.
