Richter's definitions
1. A lawyer specialising in personal injury claims usually representing people against local authorities or large companies.
2. Derogative description for a personal injury lawyer who specifically seeks out clients for tripping and slipping cases against big companies. Certainly in the US, this is because the lawyer's fee will be a percentage of the client's damages award - therefore making it profitable to find injured former employees of big companies.

Get the ambulance chasermug. Difficult to define exactly, but it's not the actual *name* of a situation or doctrine. Rather, it describes the outcome of a given action in the circumstances:
In the case of the US and USSR, their shared determination to retaliate to an attack by the other - given the size of their nuclear arsenals - would've assured mutual destruction.

Get the mutually assured destructionmug. Don't become a stranger. Usually said between friends when parting in anticipation of not seeing one another for a long time - when moving house, for example.
Is also often as a joke after marriage - warning the couple not to lose touch with their friends after becoming so attached - normally between men.

Get the gesundheitmug. American tradition - equiavent to a British end of year ball, but more crass.
Essentially an excuse to get pissed and try desperately to get laid.
Good luck guys.
