My favorite true lawyer story is about French law, where you can make a deal with an old person to pay their mortgage and house taxes and whatever monthly stipend you agree on, and own it after they die.

The lawyer and his family made such a deal with a (I think) 67 year old woman, but the woman kept living and the lawyer’s family was in too deep to quit, and especially since the longer it went on and stressed them, the older and more likely she was to die any minute.

The reason we got to see the story in the news. was because the woman did finally die after outliving everyone, she became France’s oldest person at the time of her death, and was 116 (or 115).
