Willie Gary's in the news, with a trial scheduled for tomorrow in Ocala, Florida. This time, he's a defendant.
The link is to a note about Gary in overlawyered.com. I admit to reading overlawyered every now and then, but only in the "must know your enemy" sort of way. They've got another note about Willie Gary's December holiday party. Hey, I was invited! (But then again, who wasn't? I don't know Willie Gary, so maybe he has the "Mass Torts Made Perfect" mailing list. I get their stuff too).
As an antidote to overlawyered.com's coverage of Willie Gary, I offer a link to a great New Yorker profile of Gary from 1999: The Burial, by Jonathan Harr. Read it!
Well...I have to do a project on Willie Gary for my 6th grade Social studies teacer, Mrs.Davis. I'm wondering if anyone knows any web sites that may help me.

Rebecca: Thanks for reading. I'll e-mail you some information in a minute. Of course, Willie Gary is an honorary member of the Legal Underground, so you should look around on this site for awhile. There are plenty of posts about him. In fact, I was working on one today but didn't post it yet: "The Experienced Lawyer and the Law Student Debate Willie Gary and Dickie Scruggs." Look for that one next week.
If you want some mean stuff about Willie Gary, take a look at overlawyered.com. The people who write that website are not big fans of Willie Gary's, but you'll have to figure out why for yourself. Try this search on google: "Willie Gary site:www.overlawyered.com"
Finally, the best place to look for information about Willie Gary is at his website -- www.williegary.com Follow the links on his website to "media," where you'll find some good videos about him.
All this help I'm giving you (much more than I've given my own 6th grader tonight, by the way) isn't free. After you've turned your project in to Mrs. Davis, I want you to e-mail me a copy so that I can consider putting it on this website. You'll be the youngest guest writer, and the first to write about Willie Gary!

This is my first visit to the site I am trying to find
a address for mr. Gary and a
fax number I am in a four year battle with State Farm.
They are running a game on myself and other victims of
bad drivers covered by SF.
