Motor firm sues lawyers

The New York Times has reported that DaimlerChrysler Corporation has filed a lawsuit against a US law firm. The lawsuit alleges that the law firm falsified evidence and attempted to bribe witnesses in a product liability case. The case was dismissed by an appeals court last year and three lawyers had to pay $865,000. The motor firm said it had not received the majority of the money owed, and the lawsuit was seeking additional compensation and punitive damages.
