South Florida (WiredPRNews.com) – An attorney in South Florida reportedly filed a lawsuit seeking damages for less than three dollars. As reported by dBusinessNews, the lawsuit against United Auto Insurance Company by an attorney in Fort Lauderdale was filed after the company paid the client thousands in compensation.

Richard Parrillo, Sr., founder and CEO of United Automobile Insurance Company, is quoted in the report as stating of the case featured in a United Auto Courts Report, “This is yet another instance of plaintiff attorneys seeking petty amounts for their clients and big legal fees for themselves… This abuse of the legal system makes insurance coverage more expensive for drivers and misuse precious court time. Judges, court clerks and insurance companies waste their time and money dealing with civil charges that do little for the insured and everything for their attorneys.”
