Everyone knows the McDonald’s coffee case. It has been routinely cited as an example of how citizens have taken advantage of America’s legal system, but is that a fair rendition of the facts? When asked most individuals who did choose litigation do so for four main reasons. 1) Concern with standards of care--both patients and relatives wanted to prevent similar incidents in the future. 2) The need for an explanation--to know how the injury happened and why. 3) Compensation--for actual losses, pain and suffering or to provide care in the future for an injured person. 4) Accountability--a belief that the staff or organization should have to account for their actions. Hot Coffee reveals what really happened to Stella Liebeck, the Albuquerque woman who spilled coffee on herself and sued McDonald’s.
