Gee Mike:

With that many lawsuits flying around, you’d think that the attorneys that are busy competing for ambulance chasing phrases such as identified here: http://blumenthals.com/blog/2010/10/06/poll-what-do-you-think-of-this-tag/ would switch over to corporate law and try and pick up some of the big corporate fees.

This is likely a cultural (and business-culture) thing. I don’t know about Korea, but in the case of Japan lawsuits (particularly private lawsuits) are almost non-existant.

I would guess that to be the reason for the difference in this diagram between the Western and Asian companies.
