The pltf wanted $3.5m, our final offer the day before trial was $90k. The jury came back with an award winning of $52k and the plaintiff's attorneys are surely going to end up in the red on this matter. Idk why they decided to take this case this far but it feels neat to have my first trial end in a win. <cite>Jen0125 posted [p:963639812] in I won my f...

wolfy42 03/21/22 6:20:48 PM #4:	It didn't matter much for the attorney's probably and they sold the idea to their client because the diff in how much they got between a 90k and 52k payoff (guessing it was contingency based so a %) was small. Even if they lost completely and the other side got attorneys fees, the plantiffs attorneys would not have lost much, but if they got a big payout of 3mill or more, they would have gotten a ton. It's sad if the case was real as the plantiff in such situations usually gets totally screwed due to the attorney's being greedy and it's a big reason why contingency cases are often dangerous. Even 90k which would have been the settlement would have basically doubled the plaintiffs payout, which could be a big deal if they had medical bills etc. For a filed lawsuit contingency is usually 40%, so the plaintiff could have gotten 60k or so straight up with the settlement, and is now only going to get around 30k instead. The lawyers lost a bit as well, but honestly it's all green for them as they probably spent almost no time in court and just filed a few papers, so they get 20k for less than 10 hours or work more than likely, still netting 1k per hour. Sadly that is how contingency cases usually work, the attorneys are out for their own paychecks and don't put the clients interest first. --- Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."
